Electroweak Baryogenesis with Lepton Flavor Violation

We investigate the feasibility of electroweak baryogenesis in a two-Higgs doublet model with lepton flavor violation. By scrutinizing the heavy Higgs boson mass spectrum, regions satisfying both strong first-order electroweak phase transition and the muon $g-2$ anomaly are identified. We also estimate the baryon number density by exploiting extra Yukawa couplings in the $\mu$-$\tau$ sector. It is found that a CP-violating source term can be enhanced by the $\mu$-$\tau$ flavor-violating coupling together with the extra $\tau$ coupling. With $\mathcal{O}(1)$ Yukawa couplings and CP-violating phases, the observed baryon number density is marginally produced under a generous assumption for the bubble wall profile.
