A general method for classifying the possible quark models of a multi-Higgs-doublet model, in the presence of Abelian symmetries, is presented. All the possible sets of textures that can be present in a given sector are shown, thus turning…
This is a compact overview of Higgs sectors in extensions of the MSSM. The focus is on the summary of the main features of models with additional singlets and triplets as well as of models with Dirac gauginos. In addition, also important…

This text follows the line of a talk on Ringberg symposium dedicated to Wolfhart Zimmermann 70th birthday. The historical overview (Part 1) partially overlaps with corresponding text of my previous commemorative paper. At the same time…
The aim of this article is a deepening of quantification notions in the aspect of the modular logic. Therefore, it approaches modulated logic of the plausible that seeks to formalize the quantifier of ubiquity. The text presents a proposal,…

This paper is based on author's lectures at Kyoto University in 2010 Summer, and in the 6th MSJ-SI `Development of Moduli Theory' at RIMS in June 2013. The purpose of lectures was to review several results on Hilbert schemes of points which…
These lecture notes review the theoretical background to the Higgs boson, provide an introduction to its phenomenology, and describe the experimental tests that lead us to think that "beyond any reasonable doubt, it is a Higgs boson".…
