Vortex Solutions in Two-higgs-doublet Systems

We analyze the existence of string-like defects in a two-Higgs-doublet system having SU(2)×U(1)Y ×U(1)Y ′ as gauge group. We are able to show that, when certain relations among the parameters hold, these configurations satisfy a set of first order differential equations (Bogomol’nyi equations) and their energy is proportional to their topological charge. New interest in the study of string-like...

CP-violating phenomenology of flavor conserving two Higgs doublet models

We analyze the constraints on CP-violating, flavor conserving two Higgs doublet models implied by measurements of Higgs boson properties at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and by the nonobservation of permanent electric dipole moments (EDMs) of molecules, atoms, and neutrons. We find that the LHC and EDM constraints are largely complementary, with the LHC studies constraining the mixing between...

Constraints on the two-Higgs-doublet model

The two-Higgs-doublet model provides a simple, yet interesting, generalization of the SM Higgs sector. We study the CP-conserving version of this model with general, flavor-diagonal, Yukawa couplings. Indirect constraints are obtained from flavor physics on the charged Higgs boson mass and couplings. The relation of these bounds to those for the more specialized two-Higgsdoublet model types wit...
