The first principle derivation of kinetic transport equations suggests that a CP-violating mass term during the electroweak phase transition can induce axial vector currents. Since the important terms are of first order in gradients there…
We put forward the conjecture that the small numbers in the $V_\text{CKM}$ matrix, are generated by physics beyond the Standard Model. We identify as small numbers $V_{ub}$ and the strength of CP violation, measured by $|\text{Im}Q|$, where…
Generically, non-Standard-Model particles contribute to processes with order-one charge-parity (CP) violating phases, as CP is not a fundamental symmetry of nature. The exploration of CP violation becomes therefore a sensitive search for…
Lepton and quark flavor invariants are studied, both in the Standard Model with a dimension five Majorana neutrino mass operator, and in the seesaw model. The ring of invariants in the lepton sector is highly non-trivial, with non-linear…
The spontaneous CP-violation in three kinds of extension of the standard model are investigated. We find that if no additional symmetry is introduced to reduce the number of coefficients, then all three extended models possess the…
We discuss the relation between the CP violation of the quark mixing and that of the lepton mixing by investigating a CP violating observable, the Jarlskog invariant, as well as the CP violating Dirac phase. The down-type quark mass matrix…
We discuss theoretical and phenomenological aspects of two-Higgs-doublet extensions of the Standard Model. In general, these extensions have scalar mediated flavour changing neutral currents which are strongly constrained by experiment.…
I study the weak basis CP-violating invariants in supersymmetric models, in particular those which cannot be expressed in terms of the Jarlskog--type invariants, and find basis--independent conditions for CP conservation. With an example of…
I rebuild a conventional two-Higgs doublet model by relaxing the spontaneous CP violation and considering approximate global U(1) family symmetries. So that the domain-wall problem does not explicitly arise at the weak scale, but CP…
In Standard Model, CP violation arises from an irreducible complex phase in the quark mixing matrix, now under the name Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix. This description has shown remarkably overall agreement with various experimental…
In this manuscript, a general FCNC-free and CP-violating pattern of quark-mass matrices in the 2HDM derived in our previous investigations is revised. This revised pattern is to be diagonalized analytically with no symmetries imposed. The…
We construct the $CP$-odd weak basis invariants in the flavor basis for all the phenomenologically viable neutrino mass matrices with a texture zero and a vanishing minor and, also, find the necessary and sufficient conditions for $CP$…
In Two-Higgs-Doublet models, the conditions for CP violation can be expressed in terms of invariants under U(2) rotations among the two SU(2) Higgs doublet fields. In order to design a strategy for measuring the invariants we express them…
Scalar triplet extensions of the Standard Model provide an interesting playground for the explanation of neutrino mass suppression through the type-II seesaw mechanism. Propelled by the possible connections with leptonic CP violation, we…
Recent high precision determinations of $V_{us}$ and $V_{ud}$ indicate towards anomalies in the first row of the CKM matrix. Namely, determination of $V_{ud}$ from superallowed beta decays and of $V_{us}$ from kaon decays imply a violation…
The standard model extended with the pairs of the vector-like families is studied. The model independent analysis for an arbitrary case and an explicit realization for the case with one pair of the heavy vector-like families are considered.…
Weak bases of flavors (u, c), (d,s), (e, \mu), (\nu_e,\nu_\mu) are assumed as the S_3 doublet and t, b, \tau, {\nu_\tau} are the S_3 singlet and further there are assumed S_3 doublet Higgs (H_1, H_2) and S_3 singlet Higgs H_S. We suggest an…
We confront the new physics models with extra iso-singlet down quarks in the new CP violation experimental era with $\sin{(2\beta)}$ and $\epsilon'/\epsilon$ measurements, $K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu}$ events, and $x_s$ limits. The…
Rephasing invariants of quark and lepton mixing matrices are obtained in the standard model extended by the seesaw mechanism, and in its low-energy effective theory with the dimension-five Majorana mass operator. We classify the basic…
We consider a SU(2)$ \otimes $U(1) gauge theory with many scalar doublets, but without fermions. We devise a systematic method of constructing quantities which are invariant under changes of basis of the scalar fields, but acquire a minus…
