We show that the canonical seesaw mechanism implemented by the $U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge symmetry provides two-component dark matter naturally. The seesaw scale that breaks $B-L$ defines a residual gauge symmetry to be $Z_6=Z_2otimes Z_3$, where $Z_2$ leads to the usual matter parity, while $Z_3$ is newly recognized, transforming quark fields nontrivially. The dark matter components -- that transform nontrivially under the matter parity and $Z_3$, respectively -- can gain arbitrary masses, despite the fact that the $Z_3$ dark matter may be heavier than the light quarks $u,d$. This dark matter setup can address the XENON1T anomaly recently observed and other observables, given that the dark matter masses are nearly degenerate, heavier than the electron and the $B-L$ gauge boson $Z$, as well as the fast-moving $Z_3$ dark matter has a large $B-L$ charge, while the $Z$ is viably below the beam dump experiment sensitive regime.

The singlet majoron model of seesaw neutrino mass is appended by one dark Majorana fermion singlet $chi$ with $L=2$ and one dark complex scalar singlet $zeta$ with $L=1$. This simple setup allows $chi$ to obtain a small radiative mass anchored by the
same heavy right-handed neutrinos, whereas the one-loop decay of the standard-model Higgs boson to $chi chi + bar{chi} bar{chi}$ provides the freeze-in mechanism for $chi$ to be the light dark matter of the Universe.
We study a $Z_2 times Z_2$ symmetric 3-Higgs Doublet Model (3HDM), wherein two of the doublets are inert and one is active (thus denoted in literature as I(2+1)HDM), yielding a two-component Dark Matter (DM) sector. The two DM candidates emerge as th
e lightest scalar component of a different inert doublet, each with a different odd discrete parity, and cooperate to achieve the correct relic density. When a sufficient mass difference exists between the two DM candidates, it is possible to test the presence of both in present and/or forthcoming facilities, as the corresponding masses are typically at the electroweak scale. Specifically, the light DM component can be probed by the nuclear recoil energy in direct detection experiments while the heavy DM component appears through the photon flux in indirect detection experiments. In fact, the DM mass sensitivity that the two experimental set-ups can achieve should be adequate to establish the presence of two different DM signals. This result has been obtained in the presence of a thorough theoretical analysis of the stability conditions of the vacuum structure emerging from our I(2+1)HDM construct, ensuring that the model configurations adopted are physical, and of up-to-date constraints coming from data collected by both space and ground experiments, ensuring that the coupling and mass spectra investigated are viable phenomenologically.
We discuss the possibility to find an upper bound on the seesaw scale using the cosmological bound on the cold dark matter relic density. We investigate a simple relation between the origin of neutrino masses and the properties of a dark matter candi
date in a simple theory where the new symmetry breaking scale defines the seesaw scale. Imposing the cosmological bounds, we find an upper bound of order multi-TeV on the lepton number violation scale. We investigate the predictions for direct and indirect detection dark matter experiments, and the possible signatures at the Large Hadron Collider.
We propose a new and realistic 3-3-1 model with the minimal lepton and scalar contents, named the simple 3-3-1 model. The scalar sector contains two new heavy Higgs bosons, one neutral H and another singly-charged H^pm, besides the standard model Hig
gs boson. There is a mixing between the Z boson and the new neutral gauge boson (Z). The rho parameter constrains the 3-3-1 breaking scale (w) to be w>460 GeV. The quarks get consistent masses via five-dimensional effective interactions while the leptons via interactions up to six dimensions. Particularly, the neutrino small masses are generated as a consequence of the approximate lepton-number symmetry of the model. The proton is stabilized due to the lepton-parity conservation (-1)^L. The hadronic FCNCs are calculated that give a bound w>3.6 TeV and yield that the third quark generation is different from the first two. The correct mass generation for top quark implies that the minimal scalar sector as proposed is unique. By the simple 3-3-1 model, the other scalars beside the minimal ones can behave as inert fields responsible for dark matter. A triplet, doublet and singlet dark matter are respectively recognized. Our proposals provide the solutions for the long-standing dark matter issue in the minimal 3-3-1 model.
We investigate whether right-handed neutrinos can play the role of the dark matter of the Universe and be generated by the freeze-out production mechanism. In the standard picture, the requirement of a long lifetime of the right-handed neutrinos impl
ies a small neutrino Yukawa coupling. As a consequence, they never reach thermal equilibrium, thus prohibiting production by freeze-out. We note that this limitation is alleviated if the neutrino Yukawa coupling is large enough in the early Universe to thermalize the sterile neutrinos, and then becomes tiny at a certain moment, which makes them drop out of equilibrium. As a concrete example realization of this framework, we consider a Froggatt-Nielsen model supplemented by an additional scalar field which obeys a global symmetry (not the flavour symmetry). Initially, the vacuum expectation value of the flavon is such, that the effective neutrino Yukawa coupling is large and unsuppressed, keeping them in thermal equilibrium. At some point the new scalar also gets a vacuum expectation value that breaks the symmetry. This may occur in such a way that the vev of the flavon is shifted to a new (smaller) value. In that case, the Yukawa coupling is reduced such that the sterile neutrinos are rendered stable on cosmological time scales. We show that this mechanism works for a wide range of sterile neutrino masses.
