摘要
We show that in a complementary two-Higgs doublet model (C2HDM) the CP violating phase in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix can be generated spontaneously, dangerous flavor changing neutral currents (FCNC) can be naturally suppressed and the strong CP problem can also be avoided. The two Higgs doublets in the model are complementary in the sense that none of them is enough to describe masses of a given type of quarks. We find that the strength of FCNC is suppressed by the strength of Yukawa couplings of the first generation quark and the tree-level FCNC is sufficiently small. Using an explicit example, we show that radiative correction to the assumed Yukawa couplings can modify the discussion about the strong theta. The correction to the strong theta is estimated to be less than around 10(-12) similar to 10(-10) which can be tested in future experiments.
