We construct a $D_4$ flavor model based on SU(3)_C X SU}(3_L X U(1)_X gauge symmetry responsible for fermion masses and mixings. The neutrinos get small masses from antisextets which are in a singlet and a doublet under $D_4$. If the D_4…
We present a model for lepton masses and mixing angles using the deconstruction setup, based on a non-Abelian flavor symmetry which is a split extension of the Klein group. The symmetries enforce an approximately maximal atmospheric mixing…
We present a comprehensive bottom-up analysis of lepton mass and mixing based on the non-holomorphic $A_{4}$ modular symmetry. Neutrinos are assumed to be Majorana particles and the light neutrino masses are generated through the Weinberg…
We consider an extension of the Standard Model in which the symmetry is enlarged by a global flavour factor A4 and the scalar sector accounts for three copies of the Standard Model Higgs, transforming as a triplet of A4. In this context, we…
The hierarchy $\Delta m^2_{atm} \gg \Delta m^2_\odot$ and the large $\theta_{23}$ mixing angle, as suggested by neutrino oscillation experiments, can be accounted for by a variety of lepton flavour models. A dichotomy emerges: i) Models…
We revisit $A_4$ flavor symmetry for the lepton sector with minimal Higgs sector, namely just one $A_4-$triplet SU(2)-doublet scalar. To increase predictivity even further, we impose the constraint of renormalizability. A geometric…
In the framework of non-holomorphic modular invariance approach, we have systematically constructed all minimal lepton models based on the non-holomorphic $A^{\prime}_{5}$ modular symmetry from a bottom-up approach. In these models, the…
We discussed neutrino masses and mixings in SUSY SO(10) model where quarks and leptons have Yukawa couplings to at least two 10 and one $\bar{126}$ Higgs scalars. In this model, the Dirac and the right-handed Majorana mass terms are…
We propose a model of neutrino mass generation in extra dimension. Allowing a large lepton number violation on a distant brane spatially separated from the standard model brane, a small neutrino mass is naturally generated due to an…
We demonstrate that under the "symmetric zero texture" with minimal Majorana mass matrix, neutrino masses and mixing angles are expressed in terms of up-quark masses, $m_t,m_c,m_u$. This provides interesting relations among neutrino mixing…
The Higgs sector of the Standard Model with one right-handed neutrino per family is systematically analyzed. In a model with intergenerational independent mixings between families, we can account for very light neutrinos acquiring Majorana…
In view of the recently reported evidence for a nonzero Majorana mass of the electron neutrino, together with the established phenomena of atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillations, the case of three nearly mass-degenerate Majorana…
I mainly describe neutrino masses and oscillations in the gauge model with $SO(3)_{F}$ lepton flavor symmetry and with two Higgs triplets. It is shown how the maximal mixing between $\nu_{\mu}$ and $\nu_{\tau}$ neutrinos comes out naturally…
Neutrino mixing in the standard model extensions, both renormalizable and effective, with arbitrary numbers of the singlet and left-handed doublet neutrinos is investigated in a systematic fashion. The charged and neutral (the Z and Higgs…
Nonzero masses for the active neutrinos - regardless of their nature or origin - arise only after electroweak symmetry breaking. We discuss the parameterization of neutrino couplings to a Higgs sector consisting of one SU(2)_L scalar…
Assuming Majorana nature of neutrinos, a general expression for the charged lepton corrections to scaling neutrino mixing has been obtained in the context of three flavor neutrino oscillations. Non-zero value of the reactor mixing angle is…
The modular $A_4$ symmetry with three moduli is investigated. We assign different moduli to charged leptons, neutrinos, and quarks. We analyze these moduli at their fixed points where a residual symmetry exists. We consider two…
A Standard Model extension with two Majorana neutrinos can explain the measured neutrino masses and mixings, and also account for the matter-antimatter asymmetry in a region of parameter space that could be testable in future experiments.…
The "texture zero mass matrices" for the quarks and leptons describe very well the flavor mixing of the quarks and leptons. We can calculate the angles of the unitarity triangle. We expect the angle alpha of the unitarity triangle to be 90…
In terms of its eigenvector decomposition, the neutrino mass matrix (in the basis where the charged lepton mass matrix is diagonal) can be understood as originating from a tribimaximal dominant structure with small deviations, as demanded…
