Implications of Yukawa texture in the charged Higgs boson phenomenology within 2HDM-III

We discuss the implications of assuming a four-zero Yukawa texture for the properties of the charged Higgs boson within the context of the general 2-Higgs Doublet Model of Type III. We present the charged Higgs boson couplings with heavy quarks and the resulting pattern for its decays, including the decay $H^+ \to W^+ γ$ at 1-loop level. The parameters chosen can still avoid the $B \to X_s γ$ constraint, the perturbativity and $ρ_0$ bound. Also, we present the constraints of $ B0-\bar{B}0$ mixing and of the radiative corrections to the $Z b \bar{b}$ vertex in the regime small $ \tan β$. The production of charged Higgs bosons is also sensitive to the modifications of its couplings, so that we also evaluate the resulting effects on `direct' $c\bar{b}\to H^++c. c.$ and `indirect' $q\bar q,gg\to \bar t b H^++c. c.$ production. Significant scope exists at the Large Hadron Collider for several $H^\pm$ production and decay channels combined to enable one to distinguish between such a model and alternative 2-Higgs doublet scenarios.
