We consider a 5D extension of the DFSZ axion model that addresses both the axion quality and fermion mass hierarchy problems, and predicts flavour-dependent, off-diagonal axion-fermion couplings. The axion is part of a 5D complex scalar…
The Standard Model has some intrinsic beauty in the sector of fermions and gauge bosons. Its scalar sector, though minimal, is however haunted by the hierarchy problem. The fermionic spectrum also have two major problems, the flavor problem…
The observed pattern of fermion masses and mixing is an outstanding puzzle in particle physics, generally known as the flavor problem. Over the years, guided by precision neutrino oscillation data, discrete flavor symmetries have often been…
The combination of flavor symmetries with grand unification is considered: GUT $ \times$ flavor . To accommodate three generations the flavor group SO(3) is used. All fermions transform as 3-vectors under this group. The Yukawa couplings…
In composite Higgs models, new composite pseudoscalars can interact with the Higgs and with electroweak gauge bosons via anomalous interactions, which stem from the topological structure of the underlying theory. A future 100 TeV pp…
Composite Higgs Models are often constructed including fermionic top partners with a mass around the TeV scale, with the top partners playing the role of stabilizing the Higgs potential and enforcing partial compositeness for the top quark.…
The meaning of non-abelian super flavorsymmetry in the presence of Multiple Higgs Doublets is twofold: The first one is to order the Yukawa sector of the standard model, while generating the Cheng-Sher suppression of tree-level Flavor…
We conjecture that there exists a scalar bound state for every pair of fundamental fermions at a UV (`composite') scale, $\Lambda\gg v_{\text{weak}}$. This implies a large number of universally coupled, sub-critical Higgs doublets. All but…
It is shown that the hierarchical structure of the quark mass terms in the standard model suggests a new description of the flavor mixing. The latter is primarily a heavy quark mixing involving the t and b quarks, followed by a mixing…
In spite of the enormous success of the Standard Model (SM), we have strong reasons to expect the presence of new physics beyond the SM at higher energies. The idea of the Grand Unification of all the known interactions in nature is perhaps…
We investigate the constraints on flavour-changing neutral heavy Higgs-boson decays H-> b \bar s from b -> s gamma bounds on the flavour-mixing parameters of the MSSM with non-minimal flavour violation (NMFV). In our analysis we include the…
The evolution of Standard Model gauge couplings is studied in a non-supersymmetric scenario in which the hierarchy problem is resolved by Higgs compositeness above the weak scale. It is argued that massiveness of the top quark combined with…
We explored the possibility that Higgs coupling to new physics violates flavor universality. In particular, we parameterize such models with dimension-six effective operators which modify the coupling between the first generation quarks,…
We provide a unified description, both at the effective and fundamental Lagrangian level, of models of composite Higgs dynamics where the Higgs itself can emerge, depending on the way the electroweak symmetry is embedded, either as a…
A flavor structure with minimal parameters is proposed to address the fermion mass hierarchy and flavor mixing for quarks and leptons. Yukawa interaction is reconstructed in a new basis to show a homological flat structure for up-type…
Flavor transitions via the charged current interactions are parametrized by a three dimensional and unitary transformation. This so called mixing matrix requires of four mixing parameters. Here we show that under the phenomenological…
The little Higgs mechanism provides an alternative solution to the hierarchy problem, arguably fitting better into the phenomenological hint of the "little hierarchy" which may cause some fine-tuning for the case of supersymmetry. We…
We employ a bottom-up and model-independent technique to search for non-Abelian discrete flavour symmetries capable of predicting viable CKM and PMNS matrices alongside of special patterns of leptoquark couplings. In particular, we analyze…
We study the set of models in which the Standard Model symmetry is extended with the flavour group A4 and there are three copies of the Standard Model Higgs that transform as a triplet under this group. In this setup, new channels for…
The neutrino oscillation data find a good approximation in the so-called tri-bimaximal pattern. Recently a paper appeared showing that also the bimaximal pattern, which is already ruled out by the measurements, could be a very good starting…
