The present upper bound on $\kappa_e$, the ratio between the electron Yukawa coupling and its Standard Model value, is of ${\cal O}(600)$. We ask what would be the implications in case that $\kappa_e$ is close to this upper bound. The…
The significance of the electroweak phase transition is undeniable, and although initially it was believed that it was second-order, it is now believed that it is a first-order transition. However, it is not a strong first-order phase…

We calculate two-loop renormalization group equations (RGEs) in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) with right-handed neutrinos, i.e., the so-called $\nu$SMEFT, up to dimension five. Besides the two-loop RGEs of dimension-five…
We derive bounds from oblique parameters on the dimension-6 operators of an effective field theory of electroweak gauge bosons and the Higgs doublet. The loop- induced contributions to the S, T, and U oblique parameters are sensitive to…
In most of the mass range encompassed by the limits from the direct search and the electroweak precision tests, the Higgs boson of the standard model preferably decays to bottom quarks. We present, in analytic form, the dominant two-loop…
We evaluate dominant two-loop corrections to the triple Higgs coupling and strength of a first-order electroweak phase transition in the inert Higgs doublet model. It is found that sunset diagrams can predominantly enhance the former and…
We investigate the leading one-loop Yukawa corrections to the process pp-> b anti-b H in the Standard Model. We find that the next-to-leading order correction to the cross section is small about -4% if the Higgs mass is 120GeV. However, the…
We compute the beta functions for the three gauge couplings and the Yukawa matrices of a general two-Higgs-doublet model in the modified minimal subtraction scheme to three loops. The calculations are performed using Lorenz gauge in the…
We study the indirect effects of new physics on the phenomenology of the recently discovered "Higgs-like" particle. In a model independent framework these effects can be parametrized in terms of an effective Lagrangian at the electroweak…
We study the possibility of a first-order electroweak phase transition (EWPT) due to a dimension-six operator in the effective Higgs potential. In contrast with previous attempts to make the EWPT strongly first-order as required by…

We compute analytically the complete electroweak two-loop corrections to the $B^0-{\bar B}^0$ mixing. These corrections fix the normalization of the electroweak coupling employed in the extraction of $|V_{td}|$ and reduce the theoretical…
The Two-Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) is a well understood alternative to the Standard Model of particle physics. If the new particles included in the 2HDM are at an energy scale much greater than the weak scale, the theory can be matched to…
