We investigate the lepton flavor violation (LFV) decays, $\tau\to l\gamma$ ($l=\mu, e$) and $\mu\to e\gamma$, and the newly observed muon $g-2$ anomaly in the framwork of a squential fourth generation model with a heavy fourth neutrino,…

We extend the $SU(3)_C \times SU(3)_L \times U(1)_X$ model with neutral leptons (331LHN) by introducing scalar leptoquarks. We determine the particle content of the leptoquark multiplets and their Yukawa interactions with fermions. We find…

We construct a model of quark-lepton unification at the TeV scale based on an $SU(4)$ gauge symmetry, while still having acceptable neutrino masses and enough suppression in flavor changing neutral currents. An approximate $U(2)$ flavor…

We investigate the viability of extending the Standard Model with $S_1$ and $S_3$ scalar leptoquarks when the flavour structure is parametrized in terms of Froggatt-Nielsen charges. In contrast to a similar analysis with a vector…

The measurements of the ratios $R_{K^{(*)}}$ along with $R_{D^{(*)}}$ hint towards lepton flavor non universality which is in disagreement with the standard model. In this work, we reanalyze the four new physics models, which are widely…
