Abstract

We study the constraints of the generic two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) type-III and the impacts of the new Yukawa couplings. For comparisons, we revisit the analysis in the 2HDM type-II. To understand the influence of all involving free parameters and to realize their correlations, we employ -square fitting approach by including theoretical and experimental constraints, such as S, T, and U oblique parameters, the production of standard model Higgs and its decay to , , , etc. The errors of analysis are taken at , , and confidence levels. Due to the new Yukawa couplings being associated with and , we find that the allowed regions for and in the type-III model can be broader when the dictated parameter is positive; however, for negative , the limits are stricter than those in the type-II model. By using the constrained parameters, we find that the deviation from the SM in the can be of . Additionally, we also study the top-quark flavor-changing processes induced at the tree level in the type-III model and find that when all current experimental data are considered, we get for and GeV and slightly exceeds for GeV.
