Non-invertible Peccei-Quinn symmetry, natural 2HDM alignment, and the visible axion

Abstract We identify m 12 2 $$ {m}_{12}^2 $$ as a spurion of non-invertible Peccei-Quinn symmetry in the type II 2HDM with gauged quark flavor. Thus a UV theory which introduces quark color-flavor monopoles can naturally realize alignment without decoupling and can furthermore revive the Weinberg-Wi...
