Minimal texture of quark mass matrices and precision CKM measurements

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2020-02-05 v1

Abstract

We have carried out an extensive analysis of all possible minimal texture quark mass matrices implying 169 texture 6 zero combinations. One finds that all these combinations are ruled out, a good number of these analytically, the other possibilities are excluded by the present quark mixing data. Interestingly, even if in future, there are changes in the ranges of the light quark masses, these conclusions remain valid.
