The littlest Higgs model with discrete symmetry named T-parity(LHT) is an interesting new physics model which does not suffer strong constraints from electroweak precision data. One of the important features of the LHT model is the existence of new source of FC interactions between the SM fermions and the mirror fermions. These FC interactions can make significant loop-level contributions to the couplings $tcV$, and furthermore enhance the cross sections of the FC single-top quark production processes. In this paper, we study some FC single-top quark production processes, $ppto tbar{c}$ and $ppto tV$, at the LHC in the LHT model. We find that the cross sections of these processes are strongly depended on the mirror quark masses. The processes $ppto tbar{c}$ and $ppto tg$ have large cross sections with heavy mirror quarks. The observation of these FC processes at the LHC is certainly the clue of new physics, and further precise measurements of the cross scetions can provide useful information about the free parameters in the LHT model, specially about the mirror quark masses.

With high luminosity and energy at the ILC and clean SM backgrounds, the top-charm production at the ILC should have powerful potential to probe new physics. The littlest Higgs model with discrete symmetry named T-parity(LHT) is one of the most promi sing new physics models. In this paper, we study the FC processes $e^+e^-(gammagamma)to tbar{c}$ at the ILC in the LHT model. Our study shows that the LHT model can make a significant contribution to these processes. When the masses of mirror quarks become large, these two processes are accessible at the ILC. So the top-charm production at the ILC provides a unique way to study the properties of the FC couplings in the LHT model and furthermore test the model.
In the littlest Higgs model with T-parity (LHT) the mirror quarks induce the special flavor structures and some new flavor-changing (FC) couplings which could greatly enhance the production rates of the FC processes. We in this paper study some botto m and anti-strange production processes in the LHT model at the International Linear Collider (ILC), i.e., $e^+e^-to bbar{s}$ and $gammagammato bbar{s}$. The results show that the production rates of these processes are sizeable for the favorable values of the parameters. Therefore, it is quite possible to test the LHT model or make some constrains on the relevant parameters of the LHT through the detection of these processes at the ILC.
We re-examine lepton flavor violation (LFV) in the Littlest Higgs model with T--parity (LHT) including the full T--odd (non-singlet) lepton and Goldstone sectors. The heavy leptons induce two independent sources of LFV associated with the couplings n ecessary to give masses to the T--odd mirror fermions and to their partners in right-handed $SO(5)$ multiplets, respectively. The latter, which have been neglected in the past, can be decoupled from gauge mediated processes but not from Higgs mediated ones and must therefore also be included in a general analysis of LFV in the LHT. We also further extend previous analyses by considering on-shell $Z$ and Higgs LFV decays together with the LFV processes at low momentum transfer. We show that current experimental limits can probe the LHT parameter space up to global symmetry breaking scales $f sim 10$ TeV. For lower $f$ values $gtrsim 1$ TeV, $mu-e$ transitions require the misalignment between the heavy and the Standard Model charged leptons to be $lesssim 1 , %$. Future LFV experiments using intense muon beams should be sensitive to misalignments below the per mille level. For $tau$ LFV transitions, which could potentially be observed at Belle II and the LHC as well as future lepton colliders, we find that generically they can not discriminate between the LHT and supersymmetric models though in some regions of parameter space this may be possible.
We present a detailed study of Higgs boson production in association with a single top quark at the LHC, at next-to-leading order accuracy in QCD. We consider total and differential cross sections, at the parton level as well as by matching short dis tance events to parton showers, for both t-channel and s-channel production. We provide predictions relevant for the LHC at 13 TeV together with a thorough evaluation of the residual uncertainties coming from scale variation, parton distributions, strong coupling constant and heavy quark masses. In addition, for t-channel production, we compare results as obtained in the 4-flavour and 5-flavour schemes, pinning down the most relevant differences between them. Finally, we study the sensitivity to a non-standard-model relative phase between the Higgs couplings to the top quark and to the weak bosons.
We investigate the prospects for discovering a top quark decaying into one light Higgs boson along with a charm quark in top quark pair production at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). A general two Higgs doublet model is adopted to study the sign ature of flavor changing neutral Higgs decay $t to cphi^0$, %or $bar{t} to bar{c}phi^0$ where $phi^0$ could be CP-even ($H^0$) or CP-odd ($A^0$). The dominant physics background is evaluated with realistic acceptance cuts as well as tagging and mistagging efficiencies. For a reasonably large top-charm-Higgs coupling ($lambda_{tc}/lambda_{t} agt 0.09$), the abundance of signal events and the %that our acceptance cuts reduction in physics background allow us to establish a $5sigma$ signal for $M_phi sim 125$ GeV at the LHC with a center of mass energy ($sqrt{s}$) of 8 TeV and an integrated luminosity of 20 fb$^{-1}$. The discovery potential will be greatly enhanced with the full energy of $sqrt{s} = 14$ TeV.
