Description
The discovery of the Higgs boson has opened up new avenues to probe for physics beyond the standard model, and motivates us to revisit aspects of various models in this new light. In this talk I would like to briefly discuss three topics influenced by this - searches at the LHC \& future PP-colliders for SM gauge singlet states that couple to the Higgs; supersymmetric, radiatively-generated fermion masses in the context of Higgs-fermion couplings and the muon anomalous magnetic moment; and lastly, flavor constraints on extended gauge mediation models, that accommodate large A-terms.
