Scotogenic models with a general lepton flavor dependent $U(1)$ gauge symmetry

We discuss radiative neutrino mass models with a general lepton flavor dependent $U(1)$ gauge symmetry. The scotogenic model is adopted for neutrino mass generation in which $Z_2$ odd singlet fermions and an inert scalar doublet are introduced. A lepton flavor dependent local $U(1)$ symmetry is applied to realize two-zero texture of a Majorana mass matrix of $Z_2$ odd singlet fermions where we explore minimal construction choosing $U(1)$ charges of the standard model fermions and singlet fermions. Then we investigate neutrino mass matrix and show some predictions for constructed models, and discuss some phenomenological implications.
