A model with two inert scalar doublets

Abstract: We consider an extension of the standard model (SM) with three SU (2) scalar doublets and a discrete S 3 ⊗ Z 2 symmetries. The irreducible representation of S 3 has a singlet and a doublet, and here we show that the singlet corresponds to the SM-like Higgs and the two additional SU (2) doublets forming a S 3 doublet are inert. In general, in a three scalar doublet model, with or without S 3 symmetry, the diagonalization of the mass matrices implies arbitrary unitary matrices.However, we show that in our model … Show more

“…Hence, the issue of the number of scalars is added to the generation problem: How many scalars? The interesting possibility is that this number is equal to the number of fermion generations, i.e., three [30]. Although in the context of the SM, the introduction of three doublets is well motivated, e.g., for implementing CP violation [31] and/or dark matter candidates [32], in models with larger gauge symmetries, a given number of scalar multiplets is not necessarily well motivated.…”

“…Here we will extend the model of Ref. [14] by adding three right-handed sterile neutrinos, N 1R transforming as singlet, and N d = (N 2R , N 3R ) transforming as doublets of S 3 , and two real scalar singlets of SU (2) (Y = 0) but doublets of S 3 , ζ d = (ζ 1 , ζ 2 ). See the other quantum numbers in Table I.…”

“…: V,-vol studied in different contexts, both in the quark [37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46] and lepton sectors [47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64], due to its simplicity and predictivity, as well as in the scalar sector [65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72] where more predictions arise. More recently, there have been also studies of dark matter candidates in models with S 3 symmetry [73][74][75][76][77][78].…”
