Abstract

We apply Koide's mass relation of charged leptons to neutrinos and quarks, with both the normal and inverted mass schemes of neutrinos discussed. We introduce the parameters kνk_{\nu}, kuk_u and kdk_d to describe the deviations of neutrinos and quarks from Koide's relation, and suggest a quark-lepton complementarity of masses such as kl+kdkν+ku2 k_{l}+k_{d} \approx k_{\nu}+k_{u} \approx 2. The masses of neutrinos are determined from the improved relation, and they are strongly hierarchical (with the different orders of magnitude of 105eV10^{-5} eV, 103eV10^{-3} eV, and 102eV10^{-2} eV).
