| contents | CP4 3HDM is a peculiar three-Higgs-doublet model in which a single symmetry leads to tight constraints on the scalar and Yukawa sectors. In this models, tree-level flavor-changing neutral couplings are unavoidable; however, as previously shown, their contributions to neutral meson oscillations can be suppressed. Here, we explore the remaining quark flavor violating effects, which give rise to the top quark decays to light scalars, including the 125 GeV Higgs boson $h_{SM}$, as well as the magnitude of the $h_{SM} t\bar t$ coupling. Utilizing the recently developed scanning procedure, in which observables are used as input, we narrow down the viable options to a unique CP4-invariant Yukawa sector capable of satisfying all meson oscillation and top quark constraints. We present benchmark models that feature neutral or charged Higgs bosons lighter than the top quark, and we look forward to testing them further at the LHC and through flavor physics observables. |
