The left-right symmetric gauge theories have been one of the most popular extensions of the Standard Model over past three decades. These theories naturally address several important issues such as neutrino mass and matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe which can not be accounted for in the Standard Model. Recently, several potential new physics signals reported by ATLAS and CMS...

Apart from naturally explaining their smallness, models in which neutrino masses are generated only at the loop level are particularly interesting as they often contain electrically charged scalar fields. These additional particles contribute in particular to lepton flavour and/or number violating processes, like mu -> e gamma or neutrinoless double beta decay. On the other hand, at LHC new...

The LHCb collaboration recently reported several anomalies in B meson decays which, taken at face value, imply a large deviation from lepton-flavor universality. Motivated by them, I will present a new class of Z' models based on a non-universal U(1)' extension of the Standard Model gauge symmetry. This model is characterized by the presence of flavor violating Z' couplings in the down-quark...

If observed, charged lepton flavour violation (cLFV) is a clear sign of new physics. I will discuss extensions of the SM with sterile neutrinos which could potentially give rise to cLFV signals, with a particular emphasis on low-energy seesaw mechanisms. I will discuss the impact of the sterile states on cLFV processes occurring in the presence of muonic atoms and on rare LFV Z decays at a...

We perform a model-independent analysis of the possible residual Klein and generalized CP symmetries associated with arbitrary lepton mixing angles in the case that there are three light Majorana neutrino species. This approach emphasizes the unique role of the Majorana phases and provides a useful framework in which to discuss the origin of the Dirac CP phase in scenarios with spontaneously...

We investigate lepton flavor violation (LFV) in the the singlet-triplet scotogenic model in which neutrinos acquire non-zero masses at the 1-loop level. In contrast to the most popular variant of this setup, the singlet scotogenic model, this version includes a triplet fermion as well as a triplet scalar, leading to a scenario with a richer dark matter phenomenology. Taking into account...
