H → bb and H→ττ modes still have a large uncertainty.
The SM-like Higgs boson?
• At present, observed new resonance at 126 GeV looks like the
SM-like Higgs boson.
(-Consistent with the precision measurements at LEP,
- Observed from expected events γγ and ZZ → H is spin 0 or 2)
• Large deviation from the SM prediction in H→γγ mode
• The central value for the H → ττ mode exceeds 0.
We need to collect more data in order to clarify the property
of the new particle w/126 GeV.
Still there are possibilities to consider non-minimal Higgs sectors!
Extended Higgs sector
Why extended Higgs sector?
• No principle in the Higgs sector
- Negative μ2 term → Just an assumption
- Higgs boson as an elementary scalar.
→ Cause for the quadratic div. in the Higgs mass correction.
• Phenomena which cannot be explained in the SM
- Neutrino masses
- Dark matter
- Baryon asymmetry of the Universe
Why extended Higgs sector?
• No principle in the Higgs sector
→ Supersymmetry, Dynamical symmetry breaking,
Little Higgs models, …
• Phenomena which cannot be explained in the SM
- Neutrino masses → Rad. seesaw models, type-II seesaw mechanism
- Dark matter → Discrete sym. in the Higgs sector e.g. Inert doublet
- Baryon asymmetry of the Universe → Electroweak baryogenesis

Basic two constraints from experiments
There are hints to determine the structure of the Higgs sector.
1. Electroweak rho parameter
Additional doublets or singlets
→ ρtree = 1
+0.0017
ρexp = 1.0008 -0.0007
Additional triplets or higher isospin Reps.
→ In general, ρtree ≠ 1
2. Flavor Changing Neutral Current (FCNC)
Tree level FCNC processes should be suppressed.
Models with multi-doublet structure → There appear tree level FCNCs.
★Additional doublet(s) → FCNC,
★Additional triplet(s) → Rho parameter
In this talk, we focus on the possibility that the Higgs sector has triplets.

Higgs potential
★ The most general SU(2)L×SU(2)R invariant potential:
★ There are 9 parameters in the potential:
[m1, m2, μ1, μ2 : dimension full, λ1 – λ5 : dimension less]
2 VEVs : v, vΔ,
4 masses : mH5, mH3, mH1, mh,
1 mixing angle : α and
reminding 2 parameters: μ1, μ2.
Decoupling limit
The mass formulae (α = 0)
In the limit of vΔ →0 (β → 0, M22 → 0)
★ Triplet-like Higgs bosons are decoupled
when M12 is taken to be large values.
★There is a relationship among the masses:
Consequences of the custodial sym.
1. Electroweak rho parameter is unity at the tree level
→ Triplet VEV can be taken to be O(10) GeV.
2. Mass degeneracies among 5- and 3-plet Higgs bosons;
mH5++ = mH5+ = mH50 = mH5, mH3+ = mH30 = mH3
3. Specific interactions;
5-plet Higgs can couple to gauge boson pairs.
3-plet Higgs can couple to fermion pairs .
We focus on the features 2 and 3 in order to identify
the custodial symmetric GM model at the LHC.

Scenario
• mH3 = 150 GeV, mH5 = 140 GeV, vΔ = 20 GeV, α = 0
→ Concrete example for Region II
• Branching fractions:
BR(H5→VV) ~ 100 %,
BR(H3+ → cs) ~ 30%, BR(H3+ → τν) ~ 70%,
BR(H30 → bb) ~ 90%
• We perform the signal & background analysis by using
MadGraph5 with the parton level.
We consider the hadronic decay of the 3-plet Higgs bosons

The Δη cut cannot be applied to the mixed DY process,
while the MT cut can be used.

After taking the same MT cut,
the signal significance can exceed 5 in both the events.

★ Current LHC data of h→γγ mode can be explained
when mH5 <~ 150 GeV and mH3 = 150 GeV.
★ Measuring the h→Zγ channel is also important to test the structure of the
Higgs sector. (Chiang, KY, arXiv: 1207: 1065[hep-ph])
When Rγγ ~ 1.6, RZγ ~ 1.2.
Summary
• The Georgi-Machacek (GM) model is the minimal model included
Higgs triplet fields whose Higgs sector is custodial symmetric.
• In the GM model, there are the 5-plet, 3-plet and singlet Higgs bosons
under the custodial SU(2)V symmetry.
• The masses of the Higgs bosons belonging to the same SU(2)V
multiplet are the same.
• Testing mass degeneracy among the 5-plet Higgs bosons:
→ The VBF and weak boson associated processes are useful.
• Testing mass degeneracy among the 3-plet Higgs bosons:
→ The mixied DY process is useful after the detection of the 5-plet.
The custodial symmetry in the GM model may be tested by above
the two steps at the LHC.

Constraint from Zbb vertex
The electroweak rho parameter
★ The experimental value of the rho parameter is quite close to unity.
ρexp ~ 1
Tree-level expression for the rho parameter （Kinetic term of Higgs fields）
ρtree = 1
・ Standard Model
・Multi-doublet
(with singlets) model
There is the custodial SU(2) sym.
in the kinetic term
Higgs Potential
ρtree ≠ 1
・ Models with Higgs fields
whose isospin is larger than ½
e.g., the HTM.
The custodial SU(2) sym. is
broken in the kinetic term.
These sector affects
the rho parameter by the
loop effects.
Yukawa interaction
12/35
Custodial Symmetry
The SM Lagrangian can be written by the 2×2 matrix form of the Higgs doublet:
When we take g’ and yA → 0,
Lagrangian is invariant under SU(2)L×SU(2)R
★ Kinetic term
,
After the Higgs field gets the VEV:
★ Higgs potential
this symmetry is reduced to
SU(2)L＝SU(2)R =SU(2)V (custodial symmetry).
★ Yukawa interaction (top-bottom sector)
SU(2)V breaking by g’ is included in
the definition of the rho parameter,
while that by yA is not.
There is a significant contribution to
the deviation of rho = 1 from the
top-bottom sector by the loop effect.
