In the so-called yukawaon model, where the effective Yukawa coupling constants Y_f^{eff} (f=e,\nu,u,d) are given by vacuum expectation values (VEVs) of gauge singlet scalars (yukawaons) Y_f with 3\times 3 components, i.e. Y_f^{eff}= y_f <…
We investigate the phenomenology of a TeV-scale doubly-charged scalar from the right-handed sector within the framework of left-right symmetric models. Focusing on its flavor-diagonal couplings to right-handed electrons and muons, we assess…
In the so-called ``yukawaon" model, the (effective) Yukawa coupling constants $Y_f^{eff}$ are given by vacuum expectation values (VEVs) of scalars $Y_f$ (yukawaons) with $3\times 3$ components. In the present model, all of the VEV matrices…
According to an idea that effective Yukawa coupling constants Y_f^{eff} are given vacuum expectation values < Y_f> of fields ("Yukawaons") Y_f as Y_f^{eff}=y_f < Y_f>/\Lambda, a possible superpotential form in the charged lepton sector…

We present an extension $U(1)_{X}$ to the Standard Model that reproduces the lepton mass structures determined by the experiments. In the charged sector, we introduced effective operators of dimension $n = 7$ to generate the mass of the…
Measurement of the Yukawa couplings of the first-generation leptoquarks has been studied for e+e- collisions at TESLA, at sqrt(s)=800 GeV. By combining measurements from different production and decay channels, determination of Yukawa…
The lighter scalar tau lepton $\sti$ may be the lightest scalar lepton and therefore would be found earlier in future collider experiments. We point out the impact of the measurement of the mass and the mixing angle of $\st$ to discriminate…
We discuss the predictive power of supersymmetric models with flavor symmetries, focusing on the lepton sector of the standard model. In particular, we comment on schemes in which, after certain `flavons' acquire their vacuum expectation…
Flavor physics may help us understand theories beyond the standard model. In the context of supersymmetry, if we can measure the masses and mixings of sleptons and squarks, we may learn something about supersymmetry and supersymmetry…
