Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment in Two Higgs Doublet Models with Vector-Like Leptons

We show that inclusion of a single generation of vector-like leptons in the Two-Higgs Doublet Models significantly enlarges the allowed parameter space consistent with the muon anomalous magnetic moment, as well as with other theoretical and experimental constraints. While previously $(g -2)_μ$ could only be resolved in Type-X scenario by requiring a light pseudoscalar Higgs boson and large $\tan β$, contributions of vector-like leptons via two-loop Barr Zee diagrams broaden the allowed parameter space, allowing $\tan β$ as low as 10 and pseudoscalar masses as large as $\cal{O}$(1 TeV) while fulfilling the stringent constraints from precision and flavor observable. Similar results are obtained for Type-II scenarios, but there the parameter space is more restricted by flavor observables.
