Using a one-loop renormalization group improvement for the effective potential in the Higgs model of electrodynamics with electrically and magnetically charged scalar fields, we argue for the existence of a triple (critical) point in the…
We discuss the most general formulation of the Two-Higgs doublet model, which incorporates flavor changing neutral scalar interactions (FCNSI) and CP violation (CPV) from several sources. CP violation can arise either from Yukawa terms or…
CP violation in semileptonic top-quark decay is investigated by exactly using one charged- and three neutral-Higgs bosons obtained by solving the Higgs mass matrix in two-Higgs doublet model. The CP-violating up-down asymmetry of leptons…
We present the analysis of the phase transition for the two Higgs electroweak model. We have found that for a wide range of parameters the universe first tunnels to a new intermediate phase. This feature not only is very important by…
We study CP-Violation (CPV) in a Composite 2-Higgs Doublet Model (C2HDM) based on the global symmetry breaking $SO(6)/[SO(4)\times SO(2)]$, wherein the strong sector is modeled by a two-site moose structure. Non-trivial complex phases in…
We investigate high scale boundary conditions on the quartic Higgs-couplings and their $\beta$-functions in the Type-II Two Higgs Doublet Model and the Inert Doublet Model. These conditions are associated with two possible UV physics…
The leading contributions to the electron (or muon) electric dipole moment due to CP violation in the charged Higgs sector are at the two-loop level. A careful analysis of the model-independent contribution is provided. We also consider…
We study an extension of the Standard Model (SM) in which two copies of the SM Higgs doublet are added to the scalar sector. These extra doublets do not develop a vacuum expectation value, hence, they are \textit{inert}. This essentially…
Flavor violating interactions of the Higgs boson are a generic feature of models with extended electroweak symmetry breaking sectors. Here, we investigate CP violation in these interactions, which can arise from interference of tree-level…
We study constraints on type-II two Higgs doublet models at large tan{beta} from LEP/SLD Z-pole data and from lepton universality violation in W decay. We perform a global fit and find that, in the context of Z decay, the LEP/SLD…
Combining the electroweak phase transition and the Higgs searches at the LHC, we study the Higgs inflation in the type-I and type-II two-Higgs-doublet models with non-minimally couplings to gravity. Considering relevant theoretical and…
We study the dynamics of electroweak symmetry-breaking in an extension of the Standard Model where the Higgs sector is augmented by the addition of a real (Y = 0) isospin triplet. We show that this scenario exhibits a novel, two-step…
Assuming that the axion mechanism of solving the strong CP problem does not exist and the vanishing of theta at tree level is achieved by some model-building means, we study the naturalness of having large CP-violating sources in the…
We show that the Aligned 2-Higgs Doublet Model (A2HDM) is a framework able to simultaneously accommodate strong first order electro-weak phase transitions, in turn generating detectable gravitational waves as well as a variety of Higgs…
I consider a general two Higgs doublet model with CP violation. I give a perturbative expansion for the mass eigenstates in terms of the small CP violating phase. I use these analytical expressions to show that $\mathcal{O}(10^{-2})$ CP…
The electroweak symmetry is nonlinearly realized in an extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) through an additional pair of constrained Higgs doublet superfields. The superpotential couplings of this constrained Higgs…
Due to the large mass of top quark, CP violation in the top-quark decay is sensitive to the interactions mediated by Higgs bosons. We consider CP violation in $t\rightarrow W^+ b$ decay by calculating consistently in unitary gauge the…
In a general two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM), without the {\it ad hoc} discrete symmetries to prevent tree-level flavor-changing-neutral currents, an extra phase angle in the charged-Higgs-fermion coupling is allowed. We show that the…
We investigate a model on an extra dimension $S^1$ where plenty of effective boundary points described by point interactions (zero-thickness branes) are arranged. After suitably selecting the conditions on these points for each type of…
The B-factories results provide an impressive confirmation of the Standard Model (SM) description of flavor and CP violation. Nevertheless, as more data were accumulated, deviations in the 2.5-3.5 sigma range have emerged pointing to the…
