Abstract

We demonstrate that only two ansatz can produce the features of the neutrino mixing angles. The first ansatz comes from the quark-lepton grand unification; νDi=VCKMνα\nu_{Di} = V_{CKM} \nu_{\alpha} is satisfied for left-handed neutrinos, where νDi\nu_{Di} are the Dirac mass eigenstates and να\nu_{\alpha} are the flavour eigenstates. The second ansatz comes from the assumption; νDi=Ubimaximalνi\nu_{Di} = U_{bimaximal} \nu_{i} is satisfied between the Dirac mass eigenstates νDi\nu_{Di} and the light Majorana neutrino mass eigenstates νi\nu_{i}, where UbimaximalU_{bimaximal} is the bimaximal mixing matrix. By these two ansatz, the Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata matrix is given by UMNS=VCKMUbimaximalU_{MNS} = V_{CKM}^\dagger U_{bimaximal}. We find that in this model the novel relation θsol+θ13=π/4\theta_{sol} + \theta_{13} = \pi/4 is satisfied, where θsol\theta_{sol} and θ13\theta_{13} are solar and CHOOZ angle respectively. This "Solar-CHOOZ Complementarity" relation indicates that only if the CHOOZ angle θ13\theta_{13} is sizable, the solar angle θsol\theta_{sol} can deviate from the maximal mixing. We also infer the CP violation in neutrino oscillations. The leptonic Dirac CP phase δMNS\delta_{MNS} is predicted as sinδMNSAλ2η\sin \delta_{MNS} \simeq A \lambda^2 \eta, where A,λ,ηA, \lambda, \eta are the CKM parameters in Wolfenstein parametrization. Furthermore, we remark that the ratio of the Jarlskog CP violation factor for quarks and leptons is important, because the large uncertainty on η\eta is cancelled out in the ratio, RJJCKM/JMNS42Aλ35×102R_J \equiv J_{CKM}/J_{MNS} \simeq 4\sqrt{2} A \lambda^3 \simeq 5 \times 10^{-2}.
