The CMS collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) searched for a charged Higgs boson, in the mass range of 300 to 700 GeV, decaying into a $W^{\pm}$ boson and a heavy neutral Higgs boson of mass $200$ GeV, which successively decays…
We show that in the Higgs triplet model, after the Higgs discovery, the mixing angle in the CP-even sector can be strongly constrained from unitarity. We also discuss how large quantum effects in $h\to\gamma\gamma$ may arise in a SM-like…
The model proposed by Georgi and Machacek enables the Higgs sector to involve isospin triplet scalar fields while retaining a custodial $SU(2)_V$ symmetry in the potential and thus ensuring the electroweak $\rho$ parameter to be one at tree…
We discuss the properties of a model incorporating both a scalar electroweak Higgs doublet and an electroweak Higgs triplet. We construct the low-energy effective theory for the light Higgs-doublet in the limit of small (but nonzero)…
It is possible to ameliorate the Higgs vacuum stability problem by switching over to two Higgs doublet models (2HDM), ensuring a stable electroweak vacuum up to the Planck scale, even though the top quark mass may be on the high side.…
We show that the well known Georgi-Machacek (GM) model can be realized as a limit of the recently constructed Supersymmetric Custodial Higgs Triplet Model (SCTM) which in general contains a significantly more complex scalar spectrum. We dub…
Following an investigation of several indications for new physics from LHC data, a detailed exploration of the Georgi-Machacek (GM) model was elaborated in a previous publication. This framework is used here to interpret the findings of…
Despite direct searches at the LHC excluding tripletlike Higgs bosons up to several hundred GeV over much of the type-II seesaw model parameter space, parts of it -- most notably those featuring ``cascade decays'' of the charged Higgs…
We investigate the scalar potential of a general $S_3$-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet model. The outcome of our analysis does not depend on the fermionic sector of the model. We identify a decoupling limit for the scalar spectrum of this…
We interpret the new particle at the Large Hadron Collider as a CP-even scalar and investigate its electroweak quantum number. Assuming an unbroken custodial invariance as suggested by precision electroweak measurements, only four…
The type-I two-Higgs-doublet model in the inverted Higgs scenario can retain the theoretical stability all the way up to the Planck scale. The Planck-cutoff scale, $\Lambda_{\rm cut}^{\rm Planck}$, directly impacts the mass spectra such…
The Georgi-Machacek model predicts the existence of four neutral Higgs bosons, one of which can be identified as the 125-GeV Higgs boson. The latest Higgs data favor the parameter space of small mixing angle alpha between the two custodial…
At the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), ATLAS and CMS collaborations observed various decay modes of the light charged Higgs bosons produced by top (anti)quark decays. In this paper, we are interested in the subsequent decay of the light…
The Georgi-Machacek (GM) model is one of many Beyond Standard Model scenarios with an extended scalar sector which can group under the custodial $\rm SU(2)_C$ symmetry into a fiveplet, a triplet, and two singlets. The heavy charged…
Imposing the constraint that the Standard Model effective Higgs potential should have two degenerate minima ( vacua), one of which should be - order of magnitudewise - at the Planck scale, leads to the top mass being 173 +/- 5 GeV and the…
We discuss CP-violation in a model with a real and a complex isospin triplet Higgs fields without introducing any symmetries except for the electroweak gauge symmetry. This corresponds to the minimal extension of the Higgs sector with the…
LHC searches for nonstandard scalars in vector boson fusion (VBF) production processes can be particularly efficient in probing scalars belonging to triplet or higher multiplet representations of the Standard Model $SU(2)_L$ gauge group.…
We study the experimental constraints on the Georgi-Machacek model from direct searches for the new Higgs bosons and measurements of the properties of the discovered 125 GeV Higgs boson. We apply these by interfacing the public codes…
Electroweak precision data has been extensively used to constrain models containing physics beyond that of the Standard Model. When the model contains Higgs scalars in representations other than SU(2) singlets or doublets, and hence rho not…
The Georgi-Machacek (GM) Model extends the Higgs sector of the Standard Model by introducing additional triplets, preserving custodial symmetry at tree level and allowing large triplet vacuum expectation values (VEVs) of order $\cal{O}$(10)…
