    In the framework of topcolor-assisted technicolor (TC2) theory, we calculate the contributions of the scalars(the neutral top-pion Ο€t0\pi_{t}^{0} and the top-Higgs ht0h_{t}^{0}) to the flavor-changing rare top decays tβ†’cVVt\to c V V(V= W, g, Ξ³\gamma or Z). Our results show that ht0h_{t}^{0} can enhance the standard model BrSM(t⟢cWW)B_{r}^{SM}(t\longrightarrow cWW) by several orders of magnitude for most of the parameter space. The peak of the branching ratio resonance emerges when the top-Higgs mass is between 2mW2m_{W} and mtm_{t}. The branching ratio Br(tβ†’cWW) B_{r}(t\to c W W) can reach 10βˆ’3 10^{-3} in the narrow range.Comment: Latex file, 11pages, 2 eps figure
