These lectures provide a very basic introduction to different theoretical limits on the mass of Higgs scalars. Particular attention is devoted to the pure Standard Model and its Minimal Supersymmetric extension (MSSM). [Lectures presented…
The CP structure of the Higgs sector will be of great interest to future colliders. The measurement of the CP properties of candidate Higgs particles will be essential in order to distinguish models of electroweak symmetry breaking, and to…

We discuss constrained and semi--constrained versions of the next--to--minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (NMSSM) in which a singlet Higgs superfield is added to the two doublet superfields that are present in the…
We use global fits to analyze the most recent Higgs data from ATLAS, CMS and Tevatron and compare the Standard Model (SM) prediction with natural extensions of the SM. In particular we study wide classes of composite Higgs models based on…
We study the Higgs sector of the Next to Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM) in light of the discovery of the SM-like Higgs boson at the LHC. We perform a broad scan over the NMSSM parameter space and identify the regions that are…
We perform a parameter scan of the phenomenological Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (pMSSM) with eight parameters taking into account the experimental Higgs boson results from Run I of the LHC and further low-energy observables. We…

The prospects for discovering neutral Higgs bosons in the minimal supersymmetric model (MSSM) and in the minimal supergravity model at the LHC are investigated. Two special discovery channels are discussed: (i) the decay mode of the MSSM…

These lectures on Higgs boson collider searches were presented at TASI 2006. I first review the Standard Model searches: what LEP did, prospects for Tevatron searches, the program planned for LHC, and some of the possibilities at a future…
In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (the MSSM), the electroweak symmetry is restored as supersymmetry-breaking terms are turned off. We describe a generic extension of the MSSM where the electroweak symmetry is broken in the…
The theoretical status of Higgs boson production at the LHC within the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model is reviewed. The focus will be on the evaluation of higher-order corrections to the production cross sections and…
This work provides an elementary introduction to the Higgs sector renormalisation within the Minimal Suppersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) framework. The MSSM tree-level relation $m_h^2+m_H^2=m_A^2+m_Z^2$ is renormalised using the standard…
We present some highlights on the complementaries of the Higgs and SUSY searches at the LHC, using the 8 and 13 TeV results. In particular, we discuss the constraints that can be obtained on the MSSM parameters by the determination of the…

New mass regions unexcluded by direct searches are revealed by an analysis of experimental results from LEP1 using full 1-loop diagrammatic calculations of radiative corrections in the MSSM. Simulations of experimental signal efficiencies…
We consider a supersymmetric realization of the MSSM Higgs sector, where the soft terms are promoted to supersymmetric operators and a minimal weakly coupled hidden sector is included. The model exhibits long-lived meta-stable vacua in…
