We extend the standard model with two extra Higgs doublets. Making use of a symmetry principle, we present flavour symmetries based on cycle groups $Z_N$ that oblige each Higgs doublet to contribute to the mass of only one generation, thus…
In this thesis, we investigate the implications of the LHC Higgs data on different BSM scenarios. Since the data seem to agree with the SM expectations, any nonstandard couplings will be strongly constrained. First we investigate, in a…
We calculate loop induced lepton flavor violating Higgs decays in the Littlest Higgs model with T-parity. We find that a finite amplitude is obtained only when all contributions from the T-odd lepton sector are included. This is in contrast…
We search for lepton flavour violating couplings via doubly charged bilepton (or doubly charged Higgs) exchange in electron-positron annihilation process $ \text{e}^{+}\text{e}^{-}\to \mu^{+}\mu^{-}, \tau^{+}\tau^{-}$ using CERN LEP data at…
The flavor sector of Little Higgs models based on product groups, notably the Littlest Higgs with T parity (LHT), has been extensively studied and some amount of fine tuning was found to be required to meet the experimental constraints.…
Direct searches for lepton flavor violating Higgs boson decays in the $\tau \mu$ channel have been recently reported by the CMS collaboration. The results display a slight excess of signal events with a significance of 2.5$\sigma$, which…
The simplest extension of the Two Higgs Doublet Model is the addition of a real scalar singlet, S. The effects of mixing between the singlet and the doublets can be manifested in two ways. It can modify the couplings of the 126 GeV Higgs…
In supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, the Yukawa and/or mass terms of the heavy neutrinos can generate lepton flavour violating slepton mass terms. These new supersymmetric sources of lepton flavour violation may both enhance…
We propose a theoretical justification for the anomalous Higgs couplings without extending the particle content of the Standard Model, but rather assuming different realization of the electroweak symmetry and the representation of the Higgs…
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…
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 explore the parameter space of lepton flavor violating (LFV) neutral Higgs Yukawa couplings with the muon and tau leptons that can be probed at the high-luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) via the vector boson fusion~(VBF) Higgs…
The simplest extension of the standard model involves adding a scalar doublet--the so-called two-Higgs model. In general, the additional scalar will mediate tree-level flavor-changing neutral currents. Although one can arbitrarily impose a…
Experimental study at LHC of the possible Higgs boson should soon provide accurate estimates of the Yukawa couplings $Y_{H\bar{f}f}$ for $f=t,b,\tau$. In the presence of a non-abelian discrete flavor symmetry $G_F$ (e.g. T') the usual…
The reactions e+e- -> t bar-c nu_e bar-nu_e, t bar-c e+ e- are very sensitive probes of the flavor-changing-scalar couplings which can occur in a model with one extra Higgs doublet. At the Next Linear Collider, with a center of mass energy…
The BaBar, Belle, and LHCb collaborations have reported evidence for new physics in $B\to D\tau\nu$ and $B\to D^*\tau\nu$ of approximately $3.8\sigma$. There is also the long lasting discrepancy of about $3\sigma$ in the anomalous magnetic…
Tree-level accidental symmetries are known to play a fundamental role in the phenomenology of the Standard Model (SM) for electroweak interactions. So far, no significant deviations from the theory have been observed in precision, flavour…
Recently, the CMS Collaboration performed a search on a new resonance decaying to $e^\pm\mu^\mp$ in the mass range of 110 GeV to 160 GeV. The search also hints a possible excess at 146 GeV with a $3.8\sigma~(2.8\sigma)$ of local (global)…
In these proceedings we review the impact of additional Higgs bosons on $B$ physics observables. For this purpose, we consider first the 2HDM of type II which respects natural flavour conservation. Afterwards, we study a 2HDM with generic…
Little Higgs Models are promising constructs to solve the hierarchy problem affecting the Higgs boson mass for generic new physics. However, their preservation of lepton universality forbids them to account for the $H\to\tau\mu$ CMS hint…
