abstract
We study the potential of LEP II to unravel the existence of invisibly decaying Higgs bosons, predicted in a wide class of models. We perform a model independent analysis, focusing our attention to the final state topologies exhibiting $b \bar{b}$ or $\ell^+ \ell^-$ ($\ell=\mu$ or $e$) pairs and missing energy. We carefully evaluate the signals and backgrounds, choosing appropriate cuts to enhance the discovery limits. Our results demonstrate that LEP II is capable of discovering such a Higgs boson for a wide range of masses and couplings.

Electroweak Breaking and Higgs Boson Profile in the Simplest Linear Seesaw Model
In the simplest linear seesaw model, astrophysical, unitarity, and LHC constraints force a compressed scalar spectrum and permit the 125 GeV Higgs to decay invisibly into majorons with branching ratios up to about 20%.
