A search for lepton flavour violating decays of a neutral non-standard-model Higgs boson in the $\mu\tau$ and e$\tau$ decay modes is presented. The search is based on proton-proton collisions at a center of mass energy $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV collected with the CMS detector in 2016, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$^{-1}$. The $\tau$ leptons are reconstructed in the leptonic and hadronic decay modes. No signal is observed in the mass range 200-900 GeV. At 95% confidence level, the observed (expected) upper limits on the production cross section multiplied by the branching fraction vary from 51.9 (57.4) fb to 1.6 (2.1) fb for the $\mu\tau$ and from 94.1 (91.6) fb to 2.3 (2.3) fb for the e$\tau$ decay modes.

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    DNN classifiers with mass-dependent thresholds reduce expected 95% CL upper limits on H to mu tau cross sections by 36-46% versus collinear mass baseline, while a regression network improves mass resolution by up to 21%.

    hep-ph 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    In the 331ALP model the second Higgs is predicted above 600 GeV and the Z' above 5.1 TeV, with dark matter mass related to the axion breaking scale under a residual Z2 symmetry.
