We investigated a general framework of the Standard Model with two Higgs doublets (2HDSM) with suppressed flavor-changing neutral currents (FCNC's). Loop-induced FCNC (and CP-violating) effects, when confronted with experimental constraints…
If $t\rightarrow hq$ ($q=c,u$) or $h\rightarrow\tau\ell$ ($\ell=\mu,e$) decays are observed, it will be a clear signal of new physics. We investigate whether natural and viable flavor models can saturate the present direct upper bounds…
A discrete symmetry between quarks and (generalized) leptons can exist in nature, and its spontaneous symmetry breaking scale can be as low as a few TeV. Such a discrete symmetry also has interesting implications for how electroweak…
The most general Two Higgs Doublet Model potential without explicit CP violation depends on 10 real independent parameters . Excluding spontaneous CP violation results in two 7 parameter models. Although both models give rise to 5 scalar…

We propose a Three Higgs Doublet Model (3HDM) that goes beyond natural flavor conservation and in which each of the three Higgs doublets couples mainly to a single generation of fermions via non-standard Yukawa structures. A hierarchy in…
We consider recent LHC flavour and Higgs results to constraint a custodial vectophobic Two-Higgs-Doublet-Model (2HDM) where the Minimal Flavour Violation principle (MFV) is implemented to suppress (pseudo)scalar induced flavour changing…
It is proved that the minimum of a general two Higgs doublet models' potential is stable at tree level. A relation between stability and flavour changing neutral currents at tree level is shown.
We solve the strong CP problem in a broad class of two Higgs doublet theories that will be probed at the Large Hadron Collider and at future colliders. These theories feature CP and Abelian flavor symmetries, both broken softly in the…
We discuss how, in the presence of higher-dimensional operators, the Standard Model (SM) fermion masses can be misaligned in flavor space with the Yukawa couplings to the Higgs boson, even with only one Higgs doublet. Such misalignment…
We explore Two Higgs Doublet Models with non-standard flavor structures. In analogy to the four, well studied, models with natural flavor conservation (type 1, type 2, lepton-specific, flipped), we identify four models that preserve an…
We propose an alternative method of constructing two Higgs-doublet models free from scalar mediated FCNC couplings at the tree-level. In a toy scenario, we have presented semi realistic textures for the Yukawa matrices, which can reproduce…
We conjecture the existence of a relation between elementary scalars and fermions, making it plausible the existence of three Higgs doublets. We introduce a Trinity Principle (TP) which, given the fact that there are no massless quarks,…
A class of non-supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model is proposed in which there is a multiplicity of light scalar doublets in a multiplet of a non-abelian family group with the Standard Model Higgs doublet. Anthropic tuning makes…
We point out that the stringent lower bounds on the masses of additional electrically neutral and charged Higgs bosons crucially depend on the flavour structure of their Yukawa interactions. We show that these bounds can easily be evaded by…
Many extensions of the Standard Model(SM) generate contributions to Flavor Changing Neutral Current(FCNC) processes that must have sufficient flavor suppression to be consistent with experiments, if the new physics (NP) is associated with a…
We analyse the production of a light charged Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) via the quark-fusion mechanism $c \bar{b} \to H^- $ considering the decay channel $H^- \to \tau \bar \nu_\tau$ in the final state. We study this…
The possibility of observing large signatures of new CP-violating and flavor-changing Higgs-Top couplings in a future e^+e^- collider experiments such as e^+e^- -> t bar-t h, t bar-t Z and e^+e^- -> t bar-c \nu_e bar-\nu_e, t bar-c e^+ e^-…
We analyse scalar flavour-changing neutral currents of down-type quarks in models with two Higgs doublets, coupled separately to up- and down-type quarks, in the limit where the ratio of the two expectation values ($\tan \beta = v_u/v_d$)…
These proceedings present a search for flavour-changing neutral-current (FCNC) interaction involving the top quark, Higgs boson and either the up or the charm quark, using 140 fb$^{-1}$ of 13 TeV proton--proton collision data from the ATLAS…
