We discuss a minimal solution to the long-standing $(g-2)_\mu$ anomaly in a simple extension of the Standard Model with an extra $Z'$ vector boson that has only flavor off-diagonal couplings to the second and third generation of leptons,…

We consider a model with multi-charged particles including vector-like fermions and a charged scalar under a local $U(1)_{\mu - \tau}$ symmetry. We search for allowed parameter region explaining muon anomalous magnetic moment (muon $g-2$)…

We discuss two models which are part of a class providing a common explanation for lepton flavor universality violation in $b \to s l^+ l^- $ decays, the dark matter (DM) problem and the muon $(g-2)$ anomaly. The $B$ meson decays and the…

Dark particles with lepton-flavor-violating couplings to the tau lepton can induce rare neutrinoless $\tau$ decays with large final state multiplicities. We study models where transitions of the type $\tau^\pm\to \ell^\pm\,\phi$, with…

Many new physics scenarios beyond the Standard Model often necessitate the existence of a (light) neutral scalar $H$, which might couple to the charged leptons in a flavor violating way, while evading all existing constraints. We show that…

Gauging a specific difference of lepton numbers such as $L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}$ is a popular model-building option, which gives rise to economical explanations for the muon anomalous magnetic moment. However, this choice of gauge group seems…

We construct a scalar dark matter model with $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ symmetry in which the dark matter interacts with the quark flavours, allowing lepton non-universal $b \to s \ell \bar{\ell}$ decays. The model can solve $b \to s \mu \mu$…

We discuss a possibility to explain the excess of $h\to\mu\tau$ at one-loop level. We introduce three generation of vector-like lepton doublet $L'$ and two singlet scalars $S_{1,2}$ which are odd under $Z_2$, while all the standard model…
