The origin of the baryon asymmetry of the universe remains one of the most pressing open questions in particle physics and cosmology. Electroweak baryogenesis offers an experimentally testable explanation, requiring new sources of CP…
Latest CMS results on the upper limits on $\sigma_{H^\pm}$BR($H^\pm \rightarrow \tau^\pm\nu)$ and $\sigma_{H^\pm}$BR($H^+ \rightarrow t\bar{b}$) for $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV at an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$^{-1}$ are used to impose…
Little Higgs models often feature spontaneously broken extra global symmetries, which must also be explicitly broken in order to avoid massless Goldstone modes in the spectrum. We show that a possible conflict with collective symmetry…
We discuss the most general formulation of the Two-Higgs doublet model, which incorporates flavor changing neutral scalar interactions (FCNSI) and CP violation (CPV) from several sources. CP violation can arise either from Yukawa terms or…
The Dine-Seiberg-Thomas model (DSTM) is the simplest version of the new physics beyond the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM), in the sense that its Higgs sector has just two dimension-five operators, which are obtained from the…
We explore an extension of the Inert Doublet Model which allows also for CP violation in the Higgs sector. This necessitates two non-inert doublets. The lightest neutral scalar of the inert doublet is a candidate for dark matter. Scanning…
We investigate composite two Higgs doublet models realized as pseudo Goldstone modes, generated through the spontaneous breaking of a global symmetry due to strong dynamic at the TeV scale. A detailed comparative survey of two possible…
Motivated by 3.9 sigma evidence of a CP-violating phase beyond the standard model in the like-sign dimuon asymmetry reported by DO, we examine the potential for two Higgs doublet models (2HDMs) to achieve successful electroweak baryogenesis…
We update the constraints on two-Higgs-doublet models (2HDMs) focusing on the parameter space relevant to explain the present muon $g$$-$$2$ anomaly, $\Delta a_{\mu}$, in four different types of models, type I, II, "lepton specific" (or X)…
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 investigate the Two-Higgs-Doublet-Standard Model-Axion-Seesaw-Higgs-Portal inflation (2hdSMASH) model consisting of two Higgs doublets, a Standard Model (SM) singlet complex scalar and three SM singlet right-handed Majorana neutrinos…
In this work we investigate the CP-conserving two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) in two realizations: a classically conformal setup (C2HDM) and a non-conformal setup with explicit tree-level quadratic mass terms (NC2HDM). Imposing current…
We consider a Composite Higgs Model (CHM) with two isospin doublet Higgs fields arising as pseudo Nambu-Goldstone bosons from a ${\rm SO}(6)\to {\rm SO}(4)\times {\rm SO}(2)$ breaking. The main focus of this work is to explicitly compute…
In this talk I will show that the two-Higgs doublet model with vacuum CP violation and approximate global $U(1)$ family symmetries may provide one of the simplest and most attractive models for understanding the origin and mechanisms of CP…
We discuss the feasibility of spontaneous CP violation being induced by radiative corrections in 2HDM's. Specifically, we analyze the cases of gaugino/higgsino effect on MSSM, and a new model with an extra exotic quark doublet. The new…
The discovery of the Higgs boson by the LHC experiments ATLAS and CMS has marked a milestone for particle physics. Yet, there are still many open questions that cannot be answered within the Standard Model (SM). For example, the generation…
We analyze the Higgs sector of the minimal $S(3)$-invariant extension of the Standard Model including CP violation arising from the spontaneous electroweak symmetry breaking. This extended Higgs sector includes three SU(2) doublets Higgs…
We investigate the parameter space supporting large CP violation (CPV) in the complex two-Higgs-doublet model with softly broken $Z_{2}$ symmetry, where the 125~GeV Higgs boson is identified as the lightest neutral Higgs boson $H_1$.…
Supersymmetry and Compositeness are two prevalent paradigms providing both a solution to the hierarchy problem and a motivation for a light Higgs boson state. As the latter has now been found, its dynamics can hold the key to disentangle…
We analyze the mass spectrum of the charged and neutral Higgs bosons in the framework of two Higgs doublet model (2HDM) in the light of the precision measurement of the $W$ boson mass by the CDF collaboration. We have considered the most…
