Higgs Lepton Flavor Violating Decays in Two Higgs Doublet Models

The discovery of a non-zero rate for a lepton flavor violating decay mode of the Higgs boson would definitely be an indication of New Physics. We review the prospects for such signal in Two Higgs Doublet Models, in particular for Higgs boson decays into τμ final states. We will show that this scenar...
