Abstract

The radiative neutrino mass matrix mνm^\nu in the Zee model depends on leptonic Yukawa couplings FF to a singlet scalar and YY^\ell to a new Higgs doublet. Leveraging the skew-symmetric structure of FF, we derive a unique identity linking FF and mνm^\nu that is explicitly independent of YY^\ell. This relation implies that five entries of YY^\ell can, in principle, be determined directly from mνm^\nu and FF, while the remaining four can be selected based on phenomenological assumptions. As an illustration, we apply this framework to the two-zero texture B2B2, highlighting its enhancement of the muon g2g-2.
