Abstract

A popular account of the mixing patterns for the three generations of quarks and leptons is through the characters κ\kappa of a finite group GG. Here we introduce a dd-dimensional Hilbert space with d=cc(G)d=cc(G), the number of conjugacy classes of GG. Groups under consideration should follow two rules, (a) the character table contains both two- and three-dimensional representations with at least one of them faithful and (b) there are minimal informationally complete measurements under the action of a dd-dimensional Pauli group over the characters of these representations. Groups with small dd that satisfy these rules coincide in a large part with viable ones derived so far for reproducing simultaneously the CKM (quark) and PNMS (lepton) mixing matrices. Groups leading to physical CPCP violation are singled out.
