Implications of CP violating 2HDM in B physics

The charged fermion mass matrices are invariant under U(1)3 symmetry linked to the fermion number transformation. Under the condition that the definition of this symmetry in arbitrary weak basis does not depend upon Higgs parameters such as ratio of vacuum expectation values, a class of two Higgs doublet models (2HDM) can be identified in which tree level flavor changing neutral currents normally present in 2HDM are absent. However unlike the type I or type II Higgs doublet models, the charged Higgs couplings in these models contain additional flavor dependent CP violating phases. These phases can account for the recent hints of the beyond standard model CP violation in the Bd and Bs mixing. In particular, there is a range of parameters in which new phases do not contribute to the K meson CP violation but give identical new physics phases in the Bd and Bs meson mixing.
