We construct a model that allows us to determine the three neutrino masses and the mass matrix directly from the experimental mass squared differences delta atm and delta sol, using the assumptions of rational hierarchy (m1/m2 = m2/m3) and…
We study $A_4 \times A_4 \times A_4$ modular symmetric flavor models to realize quark mass hierarchies and mixing angles without fine-tuning. Mass matrices are written in terms of modular forms. At modular fixed points $\tau = i\infty$ and…
We suggest the fermion doubling for all quarks and leptons. It is a generalization of the neutrino doubling of the seesaw mechanism. The new quarks and leptons are $SU(2)$ singlets and carry the electromagnetic charges of their lighter…
The evolution of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix and the quark Yukawa couplings is performed for the one-loop renormalization group equations in the universal extra dimension model. It is found that the evolution of mixing angles and…
We consider a minimal condition that predicts the 1-3 lepton mixing angle $\theta_{13} \simeq \theta_{\rm C}/\sqrt{2}$ with $\theta_{\rm C}$ the Cabibbo angle, and give the improved prediction of $\theta_{13}$. In the case of normal mass…
We study the CP violation of universal seesaw model, especially its quark sector. The model is based on SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)_{Y^\prime}. In order to count the number of parameters in quark sector, we use the degree of freedom…
The equations connecting elements of the Yukawa matrix to elements of the active neutrino mass matrix in the \nu MSM theory (an extension of the Standard Model by a singlet of three right-handed neutrinos) was analyzed, and explicit…
If we impose the $\mu-\tau$ symmetry, as a constraint into neutrino mass matrix, one find that the Jarlskog rephasing invariant: $J_{\rm CP}=0$ which implies that CP violation cannot be accommodated in the $\mu-\tau$ symmetry scheme. By…
If the Standard Model explanation of CP violation is correct, then measurements of CP-violating asymmetries in $B$ meson decays can in principle determine the entire quark mixing matrix.
We systematically investigate general forms of mass matrices for three-generation up and down quarks, including asymmetrical ones in generation space. Viable zero matrix elements are explored which are compatible with the current…
The correct quark and charged lepton mass matrices along with a nearly correct CKM matrix may be naturally accommodated in a Pati-Salam model constructed from intersecting D6 branes on a $T^6/(\Z_2 \times \Z_2)$ orientifold. Furthermore,…
We investigate CP violation in the purely right-handed b quark to c- and u- quark coupling model under the constraint of right-handed W-gauge boson mass M_R > 720 GeV , which is experimentally obtained recently by D0 Collaboration at…
We give a procedure to construct a special class of symmetric quark mass matrices near the democratic limit of equal Yukawa couplings for each sector. It is shown that within appropriate weak-bases, the requirements of symmetry and…
In order to explain the fermion masses and mixings naturally, we introduce a specific flavor symmetry and mass suppression pattern that constrain the flavor structure of the fermion Yukawa couplings. Our model describes why the hierarchy of…
The fermion masses and mixing angles are fitted using only 3 free parameters in a non-supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, with new approximately conserved chiral gauge quantum numbers broken by a set of Higgs fields. The…
Measurements of CP asymmetries in B decays will soon be made at $B$ factories and hadron machines. In light of this, we review and update the profile of the CKM unitarity triangle and the resulting CP asymmetries in B decays. This is done…
We study the general dependence of mixing angles on heavy fermion masses when mass hierarchies exist among the fermions. For two generations and small Cabibbo angle, this angle is directly shown to scale like $\mu_1/m_s \pm \mu_2/m_c$,…
We propose a simple mechanism which enforces |U_{mu j}| = | U_{tau j}| forall j = 1,2,3 in the lepton mixing matrix U. This implies maximal atmospheric neutrino mixing and a maximal CP-violating phase but does not constrain the reactor…
Fermion masses and mixing angles are studied in an SUSY $SO(10)\times \Delta (48)\times U(1)$ model with small $\tan\beta$. Thirteen parameters involving masses and mixing angles in the quark and charged lepton sector are successfully…
We suggest predictive scenarios for neutrino masses which provide a common origin for CP violation in early universe cosmology and in neutrino oscillations. Our setup is the seesaw mechanism in the context of MSSM with two quasi-degenerate…
