We perform a comprehensive study of family symmetry models based on $A_4$ combined with the generalised CP symmetry $H_{\rm{CP}}$. We investigate the lepton mixing parameters which can be obtained from the original symmetry $A_4\rtimes…
I review some of the recent progress (up to September 2005) in applying non-Abelian discrete symmetries to the family structure of leptons, with particular emphasis on the tribimaximal mixing ansatz of Harrison, Perkins, and Scott.
We propose a simple model in the type-III seesaw framework to explain the neutrino mass, asymmetric dark matter (ADM), and baryon asymmetry of the Universe. We extend the standard model with a vector-like singlet lepton ($\chi$) and a…
We propose a minimal, ultraviolet-complete, and renormalizable extension of the Standard Model, in which the three generations of ordinary fermions are distinguished by family-dependent hypercharges, while three right-handed neutrinos are…
We propose a 2-Higgs doublet model where the symmetry is extended by $S_{3}\otimes Z_{3}\otimes Z_{3}^{\prime }\otimes Z_{14}$ and the field content is enlarged by extra $SU(2)_{L}$ singlet scalar fields. $S_3$ makes the model predictive…
We study the renormalization group running of the tri-bimaximal mixing predicted by the two typical $S_4$ flavor models at leading order. Although the textures of the mass matrices are completely different, the evolution of neutrino mass…
We present the first multiscalar singlet extension of the 3-3-1 model with right-handed neutrinos, based on the $\Delta \left( 27\right) $ family symmetry, supplemented by the $Z_{4}\otimes Z_{8}\otimes Z_{14}$ flavor group, consistent with…
We search for possible symmetries present in the leptonic mixing data from SU(3) subgroups of order up to 511. Theoretical results based on symmetry are compared with global fits of experimental data in a chi-squared analysis, yielding the…
Tri/bi-maximal mixing (TBM) is a specific lepton mixing ansatz, which describes the trend of the current neutrino oscillation data, in particular the recent SNO and KAMLAND results. The significant feature of TBM in this respect is…
We discuss a supersymmetric unified model based on a product gauge group SU(5)\times SU(5)\times SU(5), where the gauge symmetry breaking is achieved without the adjoint or higher-dimensional Higgs field, and the doublet-triplet splitting…
We build a supersymmetric version with $SU(3)_{C}\otimes SU(2)_{L}\otimes U(1)_{Y^{\prime}}\otimes U(1)_{(B-L)}$ gauge symmetry, where $Y^{\prime}$ is a new charge and ($B$) and ($L$) are the usual baryonic and leptonic numbers,…
Contrary to the quark mixing matrix, the lepton mixing matrix could be symmetric. We study the phenomenological consequences of this possibility. In particular, we find that symmetry would imply that |U_{e3}| is larger than 0.16, i.e.,…
Assuming the same form of all mass matrices as motivated by quark-lepton symmetry, we discuss conditions under which bi-large mixing in the lepton sector can be obtained with a minimal amount of fine tuning requirements for possible models.…
Some properties of lepton mixing and neutrino masses can be computed under the assumption of A5 and CP as a symmetry in the leptonic sector. The results show that four mixing patterns accommodate well the oscillation data, i.e. all the…
We present a tri-bimaximal lepton mixing scheme where the neutrinoless double beta decay rate (bb0v) has a lower bound which correlates with the ratio alpha = Dmsol/Dmatm well determined by current data, as well as with the unknown Majorana…
If the standard model of quarks and leptons is extended to include three singlet right-handed neutrinos, then the resulting fermion structure admits an infinite number of anomaly-free solutions with just one simple constraint. Well-known…
We study a class of leptogenesis models where the light neutrinos acquire their observed small masses by a symmetry-motivated construction. This class of models may naturally include three nearly degenerate heavy Majorana neutrinos that can…
We discuss models where the U(1) symmetries of lepton numbers are responsible for maximal neutrino mixing. We pay particular attention to an extension of the Standard Model with three right-handed neutrino singlets in which we require that…
The Higgs Triplet Model contains two CP-even neutral scalar eigenstates, each having components from an isospin doublet and an isospin triplet scalar field. The mixing angle can be maximal if the masses of the scalar eigenstates are close…
We propose a new anomaly-free and family nonuniversal $\mathrm{U}(1)'$ extension of the standard model with the addition of two scalar singlets and a new scalar doublet. The quark sector is extended by adding three exotic quark singlets,…
