We investigate the collider signatures of the maximally flavor-violating $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ model, where a new gauge boson $Z^\prime$ and scalar triplets induce lepton flavor-changing interactions in the $\mu$-$\tau$ sector. Focusing on…
In models of maximal flavor violation (MxFV) there is at least one new scalar $\Phi_{FV}$ which couples to the quarks via $\Phi_{FV} q_i q_j \propto \xi_{ij}$ where $\xi_{i3},\xi_{3i} \sim V_{tb}$ for $i = 1,2$ and $\xi_{33} \sim V_{td}$…

Tau leptons can have lepton-flavor-violating (LFV) couplings to a muon or an electron and an Axion-Like Particle (ALP). ALPs are pseudo Nambu-Goldstone bosons associated with spontaneously broken global U(1) symmetries. LFV ALPs have been…

We have searched for the lepton flavor violating decays $\tau^-\to \ell^-\ks$ ($\ell = e {or} \mu$), using a data sample of 281 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ asymmetric-energy collider. No evidence for a…
Charged-lepton flavor violation (cLFV) is one of the most powerful probes for New Physics (NP). Since lepton flavor conservation is an accidental symmetry in the Standard Model (SM), it is naturally violated in many NP models, with…

Lepton flavor violation (LFV) is studied within a realistic unified framework, based on supersymmetric SO(10) or an effective G(224) = SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R\times SU(4)^c symmetry, that successfully describes (i) fermion masses and mixings,…
