摘要: We show that the $2.4\sigma$ signal of leptonic flavor violating (LFV) Higgs boson decay $h\to\mu\tau$, as observed by CMS collaboration recently, can be explained a certain class two-Higgs doublet models allow controllable flavor-changing neutral current with minimal number free parameters. postulate (i) alignment limit is maintained, which means lightest scalar ($h$) has identical couplings to Standard Model and (ii) comes from two other scalars, CP-even $H$ CP-odd $A$, almost degenerate $h$ at 125 GeV. also it entirely possible these scalars are hidden, apart this LFV signal; strengths $b\bar{b}$, $\tau^+\tau^-$ $\gamma\gamma$ around GeV put severe constraints on parameter space such models; (iii) constraint further enhanced non-observation processes like $\mu\to e\gamma$, we predict branching ratio e\gamma$ cannot even an order below present experimental limit, highlighting role plays in forcing $A$ near-degenerate; (iv) enhancement production cross-section expected gluon fusion channel, should during next run LHC; (v) $e\tau$ channel least about $2\%$. The constrained minimum parameters, along strong predictions, make model easily testable falsifiable.
