Abstract.

We predict the branching ratios of the \(Z\rightarrow e^{\pm} \mu^{\pm}\), \(Z\rightarrow e^{\pm} \tau^{\pm}\) and \(Z\rightarrow \mu^{\pm} \tau^{\pm}\) decays in the model III version of the two Higgs doublet model, with the inclusion of one and two spatial non-universal extra dimensions. We observe that the branching ratios are not sensitive to a single extra dimension, however, this sensitivity is considerable for two extra dimensions.
