Displaced Higgs production in type III seesaw
We point out that the type III seesaw mechanism introducing fermion triplets predicts peculiar Higgs boson signatures of displaced vertices with two b jets and one or two charged particles which can be cleanly identified. In a supersymmetric theory, the scalar partner of the fermion triplet contains a neutral dark matter candidate which is almost degenerate with its charged components. A Higgs boson can be produced together with such a dark matter triplet in the cascade decay chain of a strongly produced squark or gluino. When the next lightest supersymmetric particle (NLSP) is bino/wino-like, there appears a Higgs boson associated with two charged tracks of a charged lepton and a heavy charged scalar at a displacement larger than about 1 mm. The corresponding production cross-section is about 0.5 fb for the squark/gluino mass of 1 TeV. In the case of the stau NLSP, it decays mainly to a Higgs boson and a heavy charged scalar whose decay length is larger than 0.1 mm for the stau NLSP mixing with the left-handed stau smaller than 0.3. As this process can have a large cascade production ∼2 pb for the squark/gluino mass ∼1 TeV, one may be able to probe it at the early stage of the LHC experiment.

Associated Higgs production in CP-violating supersymmetry: Probing the 'open hole' at the large hadron collider
A benchmark CP-violating supersymmetric scenario (known in the literature as 'CPX-scenario') is studied in the context of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). It is shown that the LHC, with low to moderate accumulated luminosity, will be able to probe the existing 'hole' in the m{sub h{sub 1}}-tan{beta} plane, which cannot be ruled out by the Large Electron Positron Collider data. This can be done through associated production of Higgs bosons with top quark and top squark pairs leading to the signal dilepton+ {<=}5 jets (including 3b-jets)+missing p{sub T}. Efficient discrimination of such a CP-violating supersymmetric scenario from other contending ones is also possible at the LHC with a moderate volume of data.

Signatures of gaugino mass non-universality in cascade Higgs production at the LHC
Supersymmetric cascades, involving charginos and neutralinos at various stages, contribute in a significant way to Higgs production at the LHC. We explore the nature of such cascades, completely relaxing the universality of the gaugino masses. It is found that the deviation from the scenario with universal gaugino masses would be reflected in the relative production rates for the lightest neutral Higgs and the charged Higgses.

Production of two higgses at the Large Hadron Collider in CP-violating MSSM
A bstractProduction of two Higgs bosons is studied in a CP violating supersymmetric scenario at the Large Hadron Collider with Ecm = 14 TeV. There exists a region where a very light Higgs ≲ 50 GeV could not be probed by LEP experiment. This leads to so called ’LEP hole’ region. Recently LHC found a Higgs boson around ~ 125 GeV, which severely constrains the possibility of having lighter Higgs bosons, which cannot be detected, i.e., buried Higgs, in this model. We investigate the possibility of buried Higgs bosons along with the direct and indirect bounds coming from LEP, LHC and other experiments. In particular we take into account the constraints from EDM and from B-observables. We analyse first the case where a Higgs boson mass is around 125 GeV and the other two Higgs masses are below 100 GeV and not observed so far. In the second case the lightest Higgs boson mass is around 125 GeV and the other two are decoupled. We analyse the production of two Higgses and their decay modes leading to various final states for these benchmark points. We perform a collider simulation with PYTHIA and Fastjet where we consider all the major backgrounds. Among the final states we have analysed, we find that 2b + 2τ is promising and the signal significance is 5σ at an integrated luminosity ≲ 10 fb−1. For some benchmark points it is also possible to observe the light Higgs mass peak. We also explore the leptonic final state which could be instrumental in the precision measurement of a very light Higgs.

Probing non-universal gaugino masses via Higgs boson production under SUSY cascades at the LHC: a detailed study
Cascade decays of Supersymmetric (SUSY) particles are likely to be prolific sources of Higgs bosons at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). In this work, we explore, with the help of detailed simulation, the role of non-universal gaugino masses in the production of the Higgs bosons under SUSY cascades. The analysis is carried out by choosing an appropriate set of benchmark points with non-universal gaugino masses in the relevant SUSY parameter space and then contrasting the resulting observations with the corresponding cases having universal relationship among the same. It is shown that even of data at an early phase of the LHC-run with 10 fb−1 one would be able to see, under favourable situations, the imprint of non-universal gaugino masses by reconstructing various Higgs boson resonances and comparing their rates. With increased accumulated luminosities, the indications would naturally become distinct over a larger region of the parameter space.

Unusual Higgs boson signal in R-parity violating nonminimal supersymmetric models at the LHC
We predict an unconventional background free signal of the Higgs boson in $R$-parity violating nonminimal supersymmetric models at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The signal comprises dilepton plus four hadronic jets and two large displaced vertices. The displaced leptons and jets are coming from the decay of the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP), which is predominantly a gauge-singlet neutrino. A pair of such LSPs can couple to a Higgs boson, created via gluon fusion. We have analyzed two cases - one corresponding to the tree-level Higgs boson mass and another with the one-loop corrected mass of the Higgs boson. A reliable Higgs mass reconstruction using this signal can lead to discovery at the LHC with center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}=14~\rm{TeV}$ and 5 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity $(\mathcal{L})$. Even at $\sqrt{s}=7~\rm{TeV}$ and $\mathcal{L}$ = 5 fb$^{-1}$, a reasonable number of events are expected. Besides, mass reconstruction of a gauge-singlet LSP can provide an estimate of the seesaw scale.

TOPOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF CHIRAL ANOMALY, ORIGIN OF MASS AND ELECTROWEAK THEORY
It is here shown that the topological property of a fermion which gives rise to the fermion number and is related to chiral anomaly may be taken to lead to weak interaction gauge bosons when currents are written in chiral form. The gauge bosons attain mass topologically through the generation of internal helicities and thus no Higgs scalar is needed to have spontaneous symmetry breaking. Moreover the group structure SU(2)×U(1) is inbuilt here for electroweak unification. The Weinberg angle gets a physical meaning and strangeness changing neutral lepton current interaction is automatically forbidden. This formalism also suggests that at very high temperature, weak interaction will be of long range in nature.

Stochastic quantization of a Fermi field: Fermions as solitons
It is shown that the stochastic quantization of a fermion introducing an anisotropy in the internal space so that this gives rise to two internal helicities corresponding to particle and antiparticle leads us to describe a fermion as a Skyrme soliton. The Skyrme term appears here as a consequence of this internal anisotropy and can be treated as a quantum effect. Some topological properties of this fermionization are then discussed.

Geometrical Aspects of Skyrmions, Reflection Group, and the Internal Symmetry of Hadrons
The topological aspects of skyrmions are studied and it is shown that hadronscan be viewed as composite states of baby skyrmions when the internal symmetrySU(3) is generated from reflection. It is shown that in an anisotropic space aparticle can move with l = 1/2 with a specific lx value, and a bosonic constituentmoving with l = 1/2 will appear as a baby skyrmion and a fermionic constituentwill appear as if a spin carrier is attached to a baby skyrmion. The associatedmagnetic field causes a strong statistical attraction which helps to form the boundstate of such constituents. The doublet of such particles having opposite lx valuesform a conformal spinor when each member behaves as a Cartan semispinor.The conformal reflection then helps us to generate the internal SU(3) symmetry,which splits as SU(3) → SU(2) × U(1), giving rise to the hadronic spectra. Thestrong interaction involves a composite cluster in such a bound system whenrearrangement of the constituents takes place preserving the direction vectors,and an elementary constituent can take part in a weak interaction, causing parityviolation. These features help us to consider elementary constituents as knownparticles like leptons.
