We propose a particularly economical neutrino mass model, in which there are only two right-handed Majorana neutrinos of ${\cal O}(1)$ TeV and their masses are highly degenerate. Its novel Yukawa-coupling texture together with the seesaw…

The question "how small is the lepton mixing angle \theta_{13}?" had a convincing answer in a surprisingly short time, \theta_{13} \simeq 9^{\circ}, a large value comparable to the Chooz limit. It defines a new epoch in the program of…

We propose a non-holomorphic modular $A_4$ model under the assumption of universal couplings. In this framework, a charged lepton mass hierarchy is not created through parameter fine tuning or hierarchical Yukawa couplings, but instead is…

We derive predictions for the Dirac phase $\delta$ present in the $3\times 3$ unitary neutrino mixing matrix $U = U_e^{\dagger} \, U_{\nu}$, where $U_e$ and $U_{\nu}$ are $3\times 3$ unitary matrices which arise from the diagonalisation,…

A special form of the $3 \times 3$ Majorana neutrino mass matrix derivable from $\mu - \tau$ interchange symmetry accompanied by a generalized $CP$ transformation was obtained many years ago. It predicts $\theta_{23} = \pi/4$ as well as…

We propose two phenomenological scenarios of lepton mass matrices and show that either of them can exactly give rise to \tan^2\theta_{13} = m_e/(m_e + 2m_\mu), \tan^2\theta_{23} = m_\mu/(m_e + m_\mu) and \tan^2\theta_{12} = (m_e m_2 +…
