Could the LHC two-photon signal correspond to the heavier scalar in two-Higgs-doublet models?

P. M. Ferreira, Rui Santos, Marc Sher +1

LHC has reported tantalizing hints for a Higgs boson of mass 125 GeV decaying into two photons. We focus on two-Higgs-doublet Models, and study the interesting possibility that the…

Macroscopic Zeno effect and stationary flows in nonlinear waveguides with localized dissipation

D. A. Zezyulin, V. V. Konotop, G. Barontini +1

We theoretically demonstrate the possibility to observe the macroscopic Zeno effect for nonlinear waveguides with a localized dissipation. We show the existence of stable stationar…

Light localization in nonuniformly randomized lattices

Yaroslav V. Kartashov, Vladimir V. Konotop, Victor A. Vysloukh +1

We address Anderson localization of light in disordered optical lattices where the disorder strength varies across the transverse direction. Such variation changes the preferred do…

The condensation and ordering of models of empty liquids

N. G. Almarza, J. M. Tavares, M. Simões +1

We consider a simple model consisting of particles with four bonding sites ("patches"), two of type A and two of type B, on the square lattice, and investigate its global phase beh…

Zeno effect and switching of solitons in nonlinear couplers

F. Kh. Abdullaev, V. V. Konotop, M. Ogren +1

The Zeno effect is investigated for soliton type pulses in a nonlinear directional coupler with dissipation. The effect consists in increase of the coupler transparency with increa…

Linear superpositions of gap solitons in periodic Kerr media

Yuliy V. Bludov, Vladimir V. Konotop, Mario Salerno

The existence of a novel type of solitons in periodic Kerr media constructed as superposition of noninteracting gap-solitons of different kinds (bright, dark and periodic) is first…

Filling and wetting transitions of nematic liquid crystals on sinusoidal substrates

P. Patricio, N. M. Silvestre, C. -T. Pham +1

Close to sinusoidal substrates, simple fluids may undergo a filling transition, in which the fluid passes from a dry to a filled state, where the interface remains unbent but bound…

Theory and phenomenology of two-Higgs-doublet models

G. C. Branco, P. M. Ferreira, L. Lavoura +3

We discuss theoretical and phenomenological aspects of two-Higgs-doublet extensions of the Standard Model. In general, these extensions have scalar mediated flavour changing neutra…

A soft origin for CKM-type CP violation

P. M. Ferreira, J. P. Silva, L. Lavoura

We present a two-Higgs-doublet model, with a $\mathbbm{Z}_3$ symmetry, in which CP violation originates solely in a soft (dimension-2) coupling in the scalar potential, and reveals…
