Non-zero $\theta_{13}$ and leptonic CP phase with $A_4$ Symmetry

We consider a model based on $A_4$ symmetry to explain the phenomenon of neutrino mixing. The spontaneous symmetry breaking of $A_4$ symmetry leads to a co-bimaximal mixing matrix at leading order. We consider the effect of higher order corrections in neutrino sector and find that the mixing angles thus obtained, come well within the $3\sigma$ ranges of their experimental values. We study the implications of this formalism on the other phenomenological observables, such as CP violating phase, Jarlskog invariant and the effective Majorana mass $|M_{ee}|$. We also obtain the branching ratio of the lepton flavour violating decay $\mu\rightarrow e \gamma$ in the context of this model and find that it can be less than its present experimental upper bound.
