We discuss CP violation in supersymmetric theories and show that CP phenomena can act as a probe of their origins, i.e., compactification and spontaneous supersymmetry breaking. CP violation as a probe of the flavor structure of…
Quark and lepton flavor signals are studied in four supersymmetric models, namely the minimal supergravity model, the minimal supersymmetric standard model with right-handed neutrinos, SU(5) supersymmetric grand unified theory with…
We discuss several issues related to direct CP violation in rare $B$ meson decays. We review the use of CP asymmetries in extracting information of strong and weak phases, how the experimental data fit into the overall picture, and the…
This decade should provide the first definitive signals of New Physics (NP) beyond the Standard Model (SM) and the goal of these lectures is a review of flavour physics in various extensions of the SM that have been popular in the last ten…
We study the implications of various supersymmetric models on the rare $K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar\nu$ and $K_L \to \pi^0 \nu \bar\nu$ decays. Although large effects are possible in generic supersymmetric models, most of the known…
We study a warped extra-dimension scenario where the Standard Model fields lie in the bulk, with the addition of a fourth family of fermions. We concentrate on the flavor structure of the Higgs couplings with fermions in the flavor anarchy…
We consider models of maximal flavor violation (MxFV), in which a new scalar mediates large q_3 <-> q_1 or q_3 <-> q_2 flavor changing transitions (q_i is an i'th generation quark), while q_3 <-> q_3 transitions are suppressed, e.g.,…
Flavor-changing and CP-violating interactions of Z' to fermions are generally present in models with extra U(1) gauge symmetry that are string-inspired or related to broken gauged family symmetry. We study the consequences of such couplings…
We identify new room for CP violation in lepton flavor violating observables not bound by the electric dipole moment of leptons. By focusing on new physics in the muon-electron sector, we show that CP violation can make its first appearance…
We estimate the charged lepton electric dipole moments and the branching ratios of radiative lepton flavor violating decays in the framework of the two Higgs doublet model with the inclusion two extra dimensions. Here, we consider that the…
Complex flavour couplings (off-diagonal mass terms) in the squark sector of supersymmetric theories may drastically alter both the rate and the CP-violating asymmetry of certain B-meson decays. We consider the effects of couplings that…
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…
In the coming years, experiments underway will increase the sensitivity to charged lepton flavor violation by four orders of magnitude. These experiments will stringently probe weak scale physics. I review the status of global symmetries in…
In this paper we explore the possibility that (a) fermion masses, (b) neutrino oscillations, (c) CP non-conservation and (d) flavor violations get intimately linked to each other within supersymmetric grand unification based on SO(10) or an…
We present a class of warped extra dimension (composite Higgs) models which conjointly accommodates the t\bar t forward-backward asymmetry observed at the Tevatron and the direct CP asymmetry in singly Cabibbo suppressed D decays first…
We study the flavor physics in two extensions of the quark sector of the Standard Model (SM): a four generation model and a model with a single vector--like down--type quark (VDQ). In our analysis we take into account the experimental…
Analyticity and unitarity constrain certain classe of new physics models by linking flavor-conserving and flavor-violating four-fermion interactions. In this work, we explore how these theoretical relations impact flavor-violating rare top…
These lectures give an up to date description of CP violation and rare decays of K and B mesons and consist of ten chapters: i) Grand view of the field including CKM matrix and the unitarity triangle, ii) General aspects of the theoretical…
An impressive progress in measurements of the D-\bar D mixing parameters has been made in recent years. We explore the implications of these measurements to models of new physics, especially in view of recent upper bounds on the amount of…
The Littlest Higgs Model with T-Parity (LHT) contains new sources of flavor and CP violation both in the quark and lepton sector. These have their origin in interactions of ordinary fermions with mirror fermions mediated by new heavy gauge…
