I attempt to quantify how far from maximal one should expect the atmospheric mixing angle to be given a neutrino mass-matrix that leads, at zeroth order, to a nu_3 mass-eigenstate that is 0% nu_e, 50% nu_mu, and 50% nu_tau. This is done by…

Suppose the geometrical explaination to the weak CP phase in quark sector is also valid for neutrinos, the mixing and CP violation in neutrino system are discussed. We find a larger $J_{CP}$ than $3\times 10^{-3}$ implys the large-mixing…

It is well-known that, in the basis where the charged-lepton mass matrix is diagonal, there are seven cases of two texture zeros in Majorana neutrino mass matrices that are compatible with all experimental data. We show that two of these…

Using the seesaw mechanism, we construct a model for the light-neutrino Majorana mass matrix which yields trimaximal lepton mixing together with maximal CP violation and maximal atmospheric-neutrino mixing. We demonstrate that, in our…

Motivated by the accumulating hints of new sterile neutrino species at the eV scale, we explore the consequences of such an hypothesis on the solar sector phenomenology. After introducing the theoretical formalism needed to describe the MSW…

Taking account of possible CP violation, we discuss about the constraints on the lepton mixing angles from the neutrinoless double beta decay and from the neutrino oscillation for the three flavour Majorana neutrinos. From the CHORUS…

Solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillations are consistent with a tribimaximal form of the mixing matrix $U$ of the lepton sector. Exact tribimaximal mixing leads to $\theta_{13}=0$. Recent results from the Daya Bay and RENO experiments…

We apply the permutation symmetry S_3 to both charged-lepton and neutrino mass matrices, and suggest a useful symmetry-breaking scheme, in which the flavor symmetry is explicitly broken down via S_3 -> Z_3 -> nothing in the charged-lepton…

We have shown that non-zero U_{e3} is generated in a see-saw type softly broken A_4 symmetric model through a single parameter perturbation in m_D in a single element. We have explored all possible 9 cases to study the neutrino mixing…

In the flavor basis where the mass eigenstates of three charged leptons are identified with their flavor eigenstates, one may diagonalize a 3 X 3 Majorana neutrino mass matrix M_nu by means of the standard parametrization of the 3 X 3…

Results of a new analysis of the CHOOZ data, performed in the framework of three-neutrino mixing, are presented. Both the cases of normal and inverted neutrino mass hierarchy are considered. The parameters characterizing the solar neutrino…

By postulating the relation \theta_{23} \simeq 45^\circ + \eta\theta_{13}, we seek preferable correction terms to tri-bi-maximal mixing and discuss their origins. Global analyses of the neutrino oscillation parameters favor \eta=\pm…

The near maximal value for the atmospheric neutrino mixing angle together with the fact that the solar mixing angle satisfies the relation $\sin^2\theta_\odot\simeq {1/3}$ is the basis for the so called tri-bimaximal mixing (tbm) when…

Solar and atmospheric neutrino anomalies are described by bimaximal mixing of three neutrinos. Neutrino oscillations in appearance nu_e <--> nu_mu,nu_tau and in disappearance nu_e long baseline and atmospheric experiments are sensitive to…

We have analyzed the results of reactor and accelerator neutrino oscillation experiments in the framework of a general model with mixing of three neutrino fields and a neutrino mass hierarchy that can accommodate the results of the solar…

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; $\nu_{Di} = V_{CKM} \nu_{\alpha}$ is satisfied for left-handed neutrinos, where…

We show that in the framework of three light neutrino species with hierarchical masses and assuming no fine tuning between the entries of the neutrino mass matrix, one can use the solar neutrino data to obtain information on the element…

Assuming the Majorana nature of massive neutrinos, we generalize the Friedberg-Lee neutrino mass model to include CP violation in the neutrino mass matrix $M^{}_\nu$. We show that a favorable neutrino mixing pattern (with $\theta^{}_{12}…

In the framework of the mass mixing scheme we have considered mixings and oscillations of $\nu_e, \nu_\mu, \nu_\tau$ neutrinos and obtained expressions for angle mixings and lengths of oscillations in dependence on components of the…

Nonzero of mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ has some phenomenological consequences on neutrino physics beyond the standard model. If the mixing angle $\theta_{13}\neq 0$, then there is the possibility of the CP violation existence on the neutrino…
