Abstract
The lepton-number-violating decays of singly-charged Higgs bosons H^\pm are investigated in the minimal type-(I+II) seesaw model with one SU(2)_L Higgs triplet Δand one heavy Majorana neutrino N_1 at the TeV scale. We find that the branching ratios {\cal B}(H^+ \to l^+_α{\bar ν}) (for α= e, μ, τ) depend not only on the mass and mixing parameters of three light neutrinos ν_i (for i = 1, 2, 3) but also on those of N_1. Assuming the mass of N_1 to lie in the range of 200 GeV to 1 TeV, we figure out the generous interference bands for the contributions of ν_i and N_1 to {\cal B}(H^+ \to l^+_α{\bar ν}). We illustrate some salient features of such interference effects by considering three typical mass patterns of ν_i, and show that the relevant Majorana CP-violating phases can affect the magnitudes of {\cal B}(H^+ \to l^+_α{\bar ν}) in this parameter region.
