Abstract

We constrain some lepton flavor violating vertices in the context of the two Higgs doublet model type III, assuming that the lightest scalar Higgs mass % mh0 is about 115 GeV. Specifically, based on the g-2 muon factor and the decay width of μ eγ, the following quite general bounds are obtained: 7.62× 10-4 ξμτ2 4.44× 10-2, ξeτ2 2.77× 10-14. Additionally, based on the processes τ μγ, and τ μμμ, bounds on ξττ and ξμμ are also gotten, such constraints on these parameters still give enough room for either a strong suppression or strong enhancement on the coupling of any Higgs boson to a pair of tau leptons or a pair of muons. Furthermore, upper limits on the decay widths of the leptonic decays τ eγ, and τ eee are calculated, finding them to stay far from the reach of near future experiments.
