In view of ongoing measurements of the Higgs-like boson at the LHC and direct searches for dark matter, we explore the possibility of accommodating the potential results in a simple new-physics model with discrete gauge symmetry as well as light neutrino masses. Specifically, we study collider and relic-density constraints on the new gauge coupling, predict the cross section of the dark matter scattering off nucleons, and compare it with current direct search data. We also discuss some of the implications if the dark matter is light. The new gauge sector of the model allows it to be compatible with the latest LHC information on the Higgs-like particle and simultaneously satisfy the requirements in its dark matter sector.

Original abstract
In view of ongoing measurements of the Higgs-like boson at the LHC and direct searches for dark matter, we explore the possibility of accommodating the potential results in a simple new-physics model with discrete gauge symmetry as well as light neutrino masses. Specifically, we study collider and relic-density constraints on the new gauge coupling, predict the cross section of the dark matter scattering off nucleons, and compare it with current direct search data. We also discuss some of the implications if the dark matter is light. The new gauge sector of the model allows it to be compatible with the latest LHC information on the Higgs-like particle and simultaneously satisfy the requirements in its dark matter sector.

In such a framework, a $Z^'$ may act as messenger between the visible sector (which contains the SM particles) and a hidden sector (to which DM belongs), as for instance in the kinetic mixing portal scenario [ref] (alternative scenarios are discussed, e.g, in [ref] ) .

Since previous experimental data has excluded a fermionic DM (except for the pseudo-scalar coupling) [ref] , we focus on either a real or complex scalar DM, on which early studies can be found in [ref] and [ref] , respectively [For a review on these models, see, e.g, [ref] .].

The expression for $σ_II^$ due to Higgs-exchange diagrams follows from its real darkon counterpart [ref] , and so [equation] where $h̃$ is a virtual Higgs with the same couplings as the physical $h$, but with the invariant mass $√(s)=2m_D^$, and $h̃→X_i$ is any kinematically allowed decay mode of $h̃$.

Applying [equation] in Eq. ([ref]), we can then extract constraints on $λ_DH^$ and $g_ζ^$ from the 90%-CL range $0.092≤Ω_D^h^2≤0.118$ of the observed relic density [ref] .

Adopting their 90% confidence-level (CL) ranges and employing the formulas given in Ref. [ref] , but with $s$-dependent $Z$ and $Z'$ widths [ref] , we extract the upper limit on $g_ζ$ as a function of $m_Z'^$, represented by the blue solid curve in Fig. [ref].

We assume that the SM fermions carry U(1)$_ζ$ charges, and this allows us to introduce right-handed neutrinos for gauge-anomaly cancellation and generating light neutrino masses by means of the well-known seesaw mechanism [ref] , which is activated with the involvement of the same new scalar field.
