Abstract

We predict the branching ratios of the lepton flavor violating Higgs decays H-0 -> e(+/-)mu(+/-), H-0 -> e(+/-)tau(+/-) and H-0 -> mu(+/-)tau(+/-) in the case that the lepton flavor violation is carried by the scalar unparticle mediation. We observe that their branching ratios are strongly sensitive to the unparticle scaling dimension and they can reach the values of the order of 10(-4), for the heavy lepton flavor case and for the small values of the scaling dimension.
