UV-IR interplay in axion flavour violation

Flavour-violating axions appear in models where the Peccei-Quinn(PQ) charges are generation non-universal. Consequently, this charge arrangement will also generate flavour violation in the UV sector. The typical way of implementing such an axion in a UV completion is with a DFSZ model, containing 2 Higgs doublets. In this talk we will present how to parameterize the flavour violation in the UV such that we can find a direct correlation with the flavour violation of the axion. Finally, we show in an example how this connection can help in giving information about the UV completion if an axion is found in a flavour-violating channel.
