- | Is $\tan\beta$ the usual definition? | + | KL: $\tan\beta = v_2/v_1$ is the usual definition. However, the Type-1 set up in the KL-WS paper and the KL-E.Pilon paper, [[https://arxiv.org/abs/1909.02111]], takes the $\Phi_1$ doublet as coupled to ALL quarks, up- and down-type and to all leptons. This is different than the Type-1 convention in Branco et al. and in ATLAS and CMS papers, in which it is $\Phi_2$ that couples to all fermions. (Sorry, folks, this choice was made before KL discovered the Branco, et al. paper.) The net effect of this is that ALL the decay AMPLITUDES of the BSM Higgses (namely, $h2 = H', h3 = A, h+,h- = H^\pm$) to fermion pairs are proportional to $\tan\beta$ (NOT $\cot\beta$); the same is true of such all fermion-loop-induced process such as $gg \rightarrow H',A$ and $H, A \rightarrow gg$ and $\gamma \gamma$. Thus, in determining experimental limits on these BSM Higgses from the LHC experiments assuming Type-1 2HDM, put $\tan\beta \rightarrow \cot\beta$ in those papers. |

- | KL: The sum rule constraint for this model, (M^4_{h2} + M^4_{h3} + 2M^4_{h+})^{1/4} = 540 GeV, follows from the Higgs-mass (M_{h1}) formula derived by E. Gildener and S. Weinberg in PRD 13, 3333 (1976). It is determined by minimizing the one-loop approximation to the S. Coleman--E. Weinberg potential for this model. Because of this sum rule constraint, when M_{h+} = M_{h3} \simge 400 GeV, the mass M_{h2} and various branching ratios of h+/- and h3 are very sensitive to small changes in M_{h+} = M_h3}. Especially the BR's for h+/- -> W+/- h2 and h3 -> Z h2 grow rapidly and become more important than t bbar and t tbar, respectively. | + | KL: The sum rule constraint for this model, ($M^4_{h_2} + M^4_{h_3} + 2M^4_{h^+})^{1/4} = 540$ GeV, follows from the Higgs-mass ($M({h_1}$) formula derived by E. Gildener and S. Weinberg in PRD 13, 3333 (1976). It is determined by minimizing the one-loop approximation to the S. Coleman--E. Weinberg potential for this model.

Especially the BR's for $h^\pm \rightarrow W^\pm h_2$ and $h_3 \rightarrow Z h_2$ grow rapidly and become more important than $t \bar{b}$ and $t \bar{b}$, respectively. |
Therefore, it is interesting and important to see how much the sum rule is affected by, e.g., the two-loop correction to the effective potential. That is, how seriously we should take the 540 GeV RHS of the sum rule? | Therefore, it is interesting and important to see how much the sum rule is affected by, e.g., the two-loop correction to the effective potential.
