A plausible explanation for the lightness of neutrino masses is that neutrinos are massless at tree level, with their mass (typically Majorana) being generated radiatively at one or more loops. The new couplings, together with the…

We propose a new type of radiatively induced neutrino masses at three-loop level based on the Ma model, introducing a non-invertible symmetry in the class under a ${\mathbb Z_2}$ gauging of ${\mathbb Z_6}$ symmetry and adding three isospin…

We prove in this paper that the electro-weak SU(4)L x U(1)X gauge models with spontaneous symmetry breaking can offer a natural framework for generating neutrino masses by simply exploiting the tree level realization of dimension-five…

The accessibility to physics responsible for tiny neutrino mass suggests that the mass should better originate from certain higher dimensional operators. The conventional three types of seesaw operate at dimension five with the help of…

We study a minimal one-loop radiative mechanism for generating small Majorana neutrino masses in inverse seesaw extensions of the Standard Model with two singlet fermions per family. The new feature of this radiative mechanism is that the…

The seesaw mechanism of neutrino mass generation is analysed under the following assumptions: (1) minimal seesaw with no Higgs triplets, (2) hierarchical Dirac masses of neutrinos, (3) large lepton mixing primarily or solely due to the…

The simplest possibility to generate small Majorana neutrino masses is the seesaw mechanism. However, the smallness of the observed neutrino masses can also be understood, if neutrino masses are generated by higher-dimensional operators…

We study the models with the Majorana neutrino masses generated radiatively by two-loop diagrams due to the Yukawa $\rho \bar \ell_R^c \ell_R$ and effective $\rho^{\pm\pm} W^\mp W^\mp$ couplings along with a scalar triplet $\Delta$, where…

We analyze a modular invariant model of lepton masses, with neutrino masses originating either from the Weinberg operator or from the seesaw. The constraint provided by modular invariance is so strong that neutrino mass ratios, lepton…

We show that in theories that reduce, at the Fermi scale, to an extension of the standard model with two doublets, there can be additional dimension five operators giving rise to neutrino masses. In particular there exists a singlet…

We investigate a simple model of neutrino mass based on SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_X gauge unification. The Yukawa coupling of the model has automatic lepton-number symmetry which is broken only by the self-couplings of the Higgs boson. At…
