We have studied how observables of the neutrino mixing matrix can link up with the ones in the quark sector. The deviation from the bi-maximal flavor mixing is parameterized using a 3 x 3 unitary matrix. The neutrino mixings are…
Maximum mixing in atmospheric neutrino oscillation, as well as vanishing of the MNS matrix element $U_{e3}$, are consequences of a 2-3 symmetry, under which the neutrino mass matrix is invariant under the interchange of second and third…
We consider the simplest model which solves the solar and atmospheric neutrino puzzles, in the sense that it contains the smallest amount of beyond the Standard Model ingredients. The solar neutrino data is accounted for by Planck-mass…
Relying upon the usefulness of the \mu-\tau symmetry, we find a new type of neutrino mass texture with a single phase parameter \delta that describes maximal atmospheric neutrino mixing and Dirac CP violation due to the presence of \delta.…
On the basis of the so-called "yukawaon" model, we found out a special form of the neutrino mass matrix $M_\nu$ which gives reasonable predictions. The $M_\nu$ is given by a multiplication form made of charged lepton mass matrix $M_e$ and…
This work proposes two models of neutrino masses that predict non-zero $\theta_{13}$ under the non-Abelian discrete flavor symmetry $\mathbb{S}_3\otimes\mathbb{Z}_2$. We advocate that the size of $\theta_{13}$ is understood as a group…
The recent measurement of a non-zero neutrino mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ requires a modification of the tri-bimaximal mixing pattern that predicts a zero value for it. We propose a new neutrino mixing pattern based on a spontaneously-broken…
Extensions of the Standard Model with additional U(1) symmetries can describe the hierarchy of fermion masses and mixing angles, including neutrinos. The neutrino masses and mixings are determined up to a discrete ambiguity corresponding to…

Recent atmospheric neutrino data at Super-Kamiokande suggest the near-maximal flavor mixing. Models for the lepton mass matrix, which give the near-maximal flavor mixing, are discussed in this report. Mass matrix models are classified…
Many experiments are being planned to measure the neutrino mixing parameter $\theta_{13}$ using reactor as well as accelerator neutrino beams. In this note, the theoretical significance of a high precision measurement of this parameter is…
It is well known that Zee type neutrino mass matrix can provide bi-maximal neutrino mixing for three neutrinos. We study the reconciliation of this model with the gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking scenario, which naturally suppresses…
We develop a see-saw model for neutrino masses and mixing with an S3\times Z3 symmetry. It involves an interplay of Type-I and Type-II see-saw contributions of which the former is subdominant. The S3 \times Z3 quantum numbers of the fermion…
The neutrino mixing parameters are presented in a number of different ways by the various experiments, e.g. SuperKamiokande, K2K, SNO, KamLAND and Chooz and also by the Particle Data Group. In this paper, we argue that presenting the data…
Assuming the seesaw mechanism for hierarchical neutrino masses, we calculate the heavy neutrino masses under the hypotheses that the mixing in the Dirac leptonic sector is similar to the quark mixing ($V_D \sim V_{CKM}$) and that $M_{\nu}…
We discuss a double seesaw mechanism for generating light neutrino masses within the Standard Model extensions that include both right-handed neutrinos and extra gauge-singlet sterile fermions. The flavour structure of the double seesaw…

After the successful measurement of the mixing angle $\theta_{13}$, the determination of the neutrino mass hierarchy has become a priority for future neutrino experiments. We propose a conventional $\nu_\mu$ beam with neutrino energies in…
We examine relation between neutrino oscillation parameters and prediction of lepton flavor violation, in light of deviations from tri-bimaximal mixing. Our study shows that upcoming experimental searches for lepton flavor violation process…
We discuss a neutrino mass matrix $\mathcal{M}_\nu$ originally found by Babu, Ma, and Valle (BMV) and show that this mass matrix can be characterized by a simple algebraic relation. From this relation it follows that atmospheric neutrino…
