I present a new form of spontaneous CP violation in which, in analogy with the left-right-symmetric model, CP breaking results from the inequality of two real vacuum expectation values. In my model there is no scalar-pseudoscalar mixing,…
The possibility of explicit CP violation is studied in a supersymmetric model proposed by Dine, Seiberg, and Thomas, with two effective dimension-five operators. The explicit CP violation may be triggered by complex phases in the…
In the framework of the left-right symmetric model the CP-parity violation has been studied in heavy Majorana neutrino decays $N\rightarrow e^{\mp} \mu^{\pm} n$. The numerical estimates of CP-asymmetry for different masses of neutrino and…
We update the theoretical analysis of the CP-violating asymmetry in the decay K_L -> pi+ pi- e+ e-, relying on chiral perturbation theory and on the most recent phenomenological information. With the experimentally determined magnetic…
If CP violation in the decays of neutral kaons is due to phases in the weak couplings of quarks, as encoded in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix, there are many other experimental consequences. Notable among these are CP-violating…
CP violations in the kaon system are studied in supersymmetric SU(5) model with right-handed neutrinos. We pay a special attention to the renormalization group effect on the off-diagonal elements of the squark mass matrices. In particular,…
The CP violating Weinberg operator (or the gluon chromo-electric dipole moment) is generated in many candidates of new physics beyond the standard model, and it contributes to observables such as the electric dipole moments (EDM) of the…
Neutron Electric Dipole Moment (nEDM), a generic feature of CP-violation, is predicted to be very small in the Standard Model, but can be much larger in most extensions of the model. In this talk, I will discuss the classification of the CP…
We discuss how CP symmetry can be broken geometrically through orbifold projections in hidden extra dimensions in the context of D-brane models for particle unifications. We present a few toy models to illustrate the idea and suggest ways…

We review several theoretical aspects of the Equivalence Principle (EP). We emphasize the unsatisfactory fact that the EP maintains the absolute character of the coupling constants of physics while General Relativity, and its…
A concept of CP-violating (T,P-odd) permanent molecular magnetic moments $\mu^{CP}$ is introduced. We relate the moments to the electric dipole moment of electron (eEDM) and estimate $\mu^{CP}$ for several diamagnetic polar molecules. The…
We revisit the effect of the (Dirac) CP-violating phase on neutrino lepton number asymmetries in both mass- and flavor-basis. We found that, even if there are sizable effects on muon- and tau-neutrino asymmetries, the effect on the…
An overview of flavour physics and CP-violating phenomena is presented. The Standard Model quark-mixing mechanism is discussed in detail and its many successful experimental tests are summarized. Flavour-changing transitions put very…
We study implications of spontaneous CP-violation in minimal susy models for CP-asymmetries in rare $B,\bar B$-decays. In particular, we estimate characteristic values of the angles of the unitarity triangle and show that sizeable…
The Randall-Sundrum framework provides an appealing solution to both the gauge hierarchy and the flavour problem. The model with enlarged custodial symmetry is consistent with electroweak precision observables for Kaluza-Klein (KK) scales…
CP-violation in the loop-mediated photon-photon interactions would modify the birefringence of the quantum vacuum. We discuss the implications of this effect on the PVLAS-Phase II experiment, in which a time-dependent magnetic field is…
