Type-II two-Higgs-doublet model in noncommutative geometry
Abstract
In noncommutative geometry (NCG) the spectral action principle predicts the standard model (SM) particle masses by constraining the scalar and Yukawa couplings at some heavy scale, but gives an inconsistent value for the Higgs mass. Nevertheless, the scalar sector in the NCG approach to the standard model, is in general composed of two Higgs doublets and its phenomenology remains unexplored. In this work, we present a type-II two-Higgs-doublet model in NCG, with a SM-like Higgs mass compatible with the 125 GeV experimental value and extra scalars within the alignment limit without decoupling with masses from 350 GeV.
