## Abstracts

 In a topcolor-assisted technicolor model (TC2) with large FCNC top quark couplings, we study its correlated contributions to the top quark forward-backward asymmetry (AF B ) at the Tevatron, the top charge asymmetry (AC) and the triple-top production at the LHC. Under current constraints on the top quark from the LHC and Tevatron (such as the total and differential production rates), we scan the parameter space of such a TC2 model. We find that in the allowed parameter space the TC2 model can explain the Tevatron measured AFB at 2σ level, but meanwhile significantly enhance AC at the LHC. Such enhanced AC, albeit currently allowed by the LHC measurement at 2σ level, will serve as a test of TC2 with the improvement of measurement precision at the LHC. Then with all the constraints (including the requirement to explain AF B at 2σ level and satisfying the current LHC measurement of AC at 2σ level), we find that the TC2 model can induce sizable triple-top production at the 14 TeV LHC (the production rate can maximally reach 16 pb). Due to the low SM backgrounds, the triple-top production can also be a good probe for TC2 model, complementary to AC.
