in the complex two Higgs doublet model
The latest LHC data confirmed the existence of a Higgs-like particle and made
interesting measurements on its decays into , , , , and . It is expected that a decay into might be measured at the next LHC round, for which there already exists
an upper bound. The Higgs-like particle could be a mixture of scalar with a
relatively large component of pseudoscalar. We compute the decay of such a
mixed state into , and we study its properties in the context of the
complex two Higgs doublet model, analysing the effect of the current
measurements on the four versions of this model. We show that a measurement of
the rate at a level consistent with the SM can be used
to place interesting constraints on the pseudoscalar component. We also comment
on the issue of a wrong sign Yukawa coupling for the bottom in Type II models.Comment: 31 pages, 15 figure
A reappraisal of the wrong-sign coupling and the study of
It has been pointed out recently that current experiments still allow for a
two Higgs doublet model where the coupling () is
negative; a sign opposite to that of the Standard Model. Due to the importance
of delayed decoupling in the coupling, improved measurements will have a strong impact on this issue. For the
same reason, measurements or even bounds on are
potentially interesting. In this article, we revisit this problem, highlighting
the crucial importance of , which can be understood with
simple arguments. We show that the impacts on models of both and are very sensitive to
input values for the gluon fusion production mechanism; in contrast, and are not. We also
inquire if the search for and its interplay with will impact the sign of the coupling.
Finally, we study these issues in the context of the Flipped two Higgs doublet
model.Comment: 13 pages, pdf figure
Gluon and Ghost Dynamics from Lattice QCD
The two point gluon and ghost correlation functions and the three gluon
vertex are investigated, in the Landau gauge, using lattice simulations. For
the two point functions, we discuss the approach to the continuum limit looking
at the dependence on the lattice spacing and volume. The analytical structure
of the propagators is also investigated by computing the corresponding spectral
functions using an implementation of the Tikhonov regularisation to solve the
integral equation. For the three point function we report results when the
momentum of one of the gluon lines is set to zero and discuss its implications.Comment: Proceedings of Light Cone 2016, held in Lisbon, September 2016. Minor

On the distribution of high-frequency stock market traded volume: a dynamical scenario
This manuscript reports a stochastic dynamical scenario whose associated
stationary probability density function is exactly a previously proposed one to
adjust high-frequency traded volume distributions. This dynamical conjecture,
physically connected to superstatiscs, which is intimately related with the
current nonextensive statistical mechanics framework, is based on the idea of
local fluctuations in the mean traded volume associated to financial markets
agents herding behaviour. The corroboration of this mesoscopic model is done by
modelising NASDAQ 1 and 2 minute stock market traded volume
A new proof of the Herman-Avila-Bochi formula for Lyapunov exponents of SL(2,R)-cocycles
We study the geometry of the action of SL(2,R) on the projective line in
order to present a new and simpler proof of the Herman-Avila-Bochi formula.
This formula gives the average Lyapunov exponent of a class of 1-families of
SL(2,R)-cocycles.Comment: 13 pages, 2 figure
Combinatorial stability of non-deterministic systems
We introduce and study, from a combinatorial-topological viewpoint, some semigroups of continuous non-deterministic dynamical systems. Combinatorial stability, i.e. the persistence of the combinatorics of the attractors, is characterized and its genericity established.
Some implications on topological (deterministic) dynamics are drawn
