Abstract

By imposing validity of the perturbation and stability of vacuum up to an energy scale $Λ$ ( $\leq 1 0^{19}$ GeV), we evaluate mass bounds of the lightest CP-even Higgs-boson mass ( $m_{h}$ ) in the two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) with a softly-broken discrete symmetry. The most general bounds are obtained as a function of $Λ$ vering all the free parameters under the experimental constraint from the $r h o$ parameter and the b \to s γ $r es u l t s .
