The small neutrino mass observed in neutrino oscillations is nicely explained by the seesaw mechanism. Rich phenomenology is generally expected if the heavy neutrinos are not much heavier than the electroweak scale. A model with this feature built in has been suggested recently by Hung. The model keeps the standard gauge group but introduces chirality-flipped partners for the fermions. In particular, a right-handed neutrino forms a weak doublet with a charged heavy lepton, and is thus active. We analyze the lepton flavor structure in gauge interactions. The mixing matrices in charged currents (CC) are generally non-unitary, and their deviation from unitarity induces flavor changing neutral currents (FCNC). We calculate the branching ratios for the rare decays muto egamma and muto eebar e due to the gauge interactions. Although the former is generally smaller than the latter by three orders of magnitude, parameter regions exist in which muto egamma is reachable in the next generation of experiments even if the current stringent bound on muto eebar e is taken into account. If light neutrinos dominate for muto egamma, the latter cannot set a meaningful bound on unitarity violation in the mixing matrix of light leptons due to significant cancelation between CC and FCNC contributions. Instead, the role is taken over by the decay muto eebar e.

The muon-to-electron conversion in nuclei like aluminum, titanium and gold is studied in the context of a class of mirror fermion model with non-sterile right-handed neutrinos having mass at the electroweak scale. At the limit of zero momentum transf
er and large mirror lepton masses, we derive a simple formula to relate the conversion rate with the on-shell radiative decay rate of muon into electron. Current experimental limits (SINDRUM II) and projected sensitivities (Mu2e, COMET and PRISM) for the muon-to-electron conversion rates in various nuclei and latest limit from MEG for the radiative decay rate of muon into electron are used to put constraints on the parameter space of the model. Depending on the nuclei targets used in different experiments, for the mirror lepton mass in the range of 100 to 800 GeV, the sensitivities of the new Yukawa couplings one can probe in the near future are in the range of one tenth to one hundred-thousandth, depending on the mixing scenarios in the model.
We study lepton flavor number violating rare B decays, $b to s l_h^{pm} l_l^{mp}$, in a seesaw model with low scale singlet Majorana neutrinos motivated by the resonant leptogenesis scenario. The branching ratios of inclusive decays $ b to s l_h^{pm}
bar{l_l}^{mp} $ with two almost degenerate singlet neutrinos at TeV scale are investigated in detail. We find that there exists a class of seesaw model in which the branching fractions of $ b to s tau mu $ and $tau to mu gamma$ can be as large as $10^{-10}$ and $10^{-9}$ within the reach of Super B factories, respectively, without being in conflict with neutrino mixings and mass squared difference of neutrinos from neutrino data, invisible decay width of $Z$ and the present limit of $Br(mu to e gamma)$.
We study lepton flavor violating (LFV) tau and B decays in models with heavy neutrinos to constrain the mixing matrix parameters U_{tau N}. We find that the best current constraints when the heavy neutrinos are purely left-handed come from LFV radiat
ive tau decay modes. To obtain competitive constraints in LFV B decay it is necessary to probe b -> X_{s} tau^{pm} e^{mp} at the 10^{-7} level. When the heavy neutrinos have both left and right-handed couplings, the mixing parameters can be constrained by studying LFV B decay modes and LFV tau decay into three charged leptons. We find that the branching ratios B(tau^{pm} -> l_1^{pm} l_2^{pm} l_3^{mp}), B(B_{s} -> tau^{pm} e^{mp}) and B(b -> X_{s} l_1^{pm} l_2^{mp}) need to be probed at the 10^{-8} level in order to constrain the mixing parameters beyond what is known from unitarity.
The electric dipole moment of the electron is studied in detail in an extended mirror fermion model with the following unique features of (a) right-handed neutrinos are non-sterile and have masses at the electroweak scale, and (b) a horizontal symmet
ry of the tetrahedral group is used in the lepton and scalar sectors. We study the constraint on the parameter space of the model imposed by the latest ACME experimental limit on electron electric dipole moment. Other low energy experimental observables such as the anomalous magnetic dipole moment of the muon, charged lepton flavor violating processes like muon decays into electron plus photon and muon-to-electron conversion in titanium, gold and lead are also considered in our analysis for comparison. In addition to the well-known CP violating Dirac and Majorana phases in the neutrino mixing matrix, the dependence of additional phases of the new Yukawa couplings in the model is studied in detail for all these low energy observables.
Exotic Higgs decays are promising channels to discover new physics in the near future. We present a simple model with a new light scalar that couples to the Standard Model through a charged lepton-flavor violating interaction. This can yield exciting
new signatures, such as $h to e^+ e^+ mu^-mu^-$, that currently have no dedicated searches at the Large Hadron Collider. We discuss this model in detail, assess sensitivity from flavor constraints, explore current constraints from existing multi-lepton searches, and construct a new search strategy to optimally target these exotic, lepton-flavor violating Higgs decays.
