Zeleny-Mora","J. Lorenzo Díaz-Cruz","O.

We develop a method based on a classification of the particles appearing in the loop diagrams (scalars, fermions and vectors), and by identifying the corresponding couplings, we are able to present compact expressions for the form factors involved in the amplitudes. Our results are applicable to models where Flavor Changing Neutral Currents (FCNC) are forbidden at tree-level, but change of flavor is induced by charged currents. Then, as applications of our formalism, we evaluate the branching ratio for the mode $h \\to l_a l_b$, for two specific models: the See-Saw Type I-$\\nu$SM and the Scotogenic model (here $h = H_1$ corresponds to the SM-like Higgs boson); we find that the largest branching ratio for SM-like Higgs $h$ boson within the $\\nu$SM is of the order $\\mathcal{BR}(h\\to \\mu \\tau)\\simeq 10^{-12}$, while for the Scotogenic model we find $\\mathcal{BR}(h\\to l_a l_b)\\lesssim 10^{-9}$, which satisfy the latest experimental LHC results.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.08412v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2112.08412v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"the-general-one-loop-structure-for-the-lfv","repo_url":"https://github.com/moiseszeleny/onelooplfvhd","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
