AbstractIn this work, we study the potential of searching for triply charged Higgs boson originating from a complex Higgs quadruplet in the final state with at least three same-sign leptons. A detailed collider analysis of the SM backgrounds and signals is performed at a 100 TeV pp collider for the triply charged Higgs boson mass below 1 TeV and the Higgs quadruplet vacuum expectation value $$v_\Delta $$
