The phase convention independent measure of CP violation for three generations of leptons is evaluated at different energy scales. Unlike in the quark sector, this quantity does not vary much between the weak and the grand unification…
A basis independent formulation of quark-lepton complementarity is implemented at a high scale for quasidegenerate Majorana neutrinos. It is shown that even with the renormalization group evolution in the minimal supersymmetric standard…
We investigate a model on an extra dimension $S^1$ where plenty of effective boundary points described by point interactions (zero-thickness branes) are arranged. After suitably selecting the conditions on these points for each type of…
It is shown that if, from the starting point of a universal rank-one mass matrix long favoured by phenomenologists, one adds the assumption that it rotates (changes its orientation in generation space) with changing scale, one can…
A model-independent ansatz to describe lepton and quark mixing in a unified way is suggested based upon the Cabibbo angle. In our framework neutrinos mix in a "Bi-Large" fashion, while the charged leptons mix as the "down-type" quarks do.…
We discuss whether quark, charged lepton and neutrino masses and mixing angles may be related by an extended flavour and family symmetry group. We show that current measurements of all fermion masses and mixing angles are consistent with a…
The present observations of Cabbibo angle and solar mixing angle satisfy the empirical relation called Quark-Lepton Complementarity(QLC), namely $\theta_{12}^l\sim \pi/4-\theta_C$. It suggests the existence of correlation between quarks and…
The masses of quarks and leptons in units of $m_t$ are expressed in powers of $\sigma=\sqrt{m_c/m_t}$. The regularities found suggest specific mass matrices. They reproduce all masses and mixings in striking agreement with observation. A 90…

We present a systematic procedure to establish a connection between complex neutrino mass matrix textures and experimental observables, including the Dirac CP phase. In addition, we illustrate how future experimental measurements affect the…
Several approximate equalities among the matrix elements of CKM and PMNS imply that hidden symmetries may exist and be common for both quark and neutrino sectors. The CP phase of the CKM matrix ($\delta_{\rm CKM}$) is involved in these…
We consider a scenario for the Quark-Lepton Complementarity relations between mixing angles in which the bi-maximal mixing follows from the neutrino mass matrix. According to this scenario in the lowest order the angle \theta_{12} is \sim…
A model independent analysis of the leptonic Dirac CP-violating phase ({\delta}) is presented. The analysis uses the experimentally determined values of the mixing angles in the lepton mixing matrix in order to explore the allowed values…
The successful A4 family symmetry for leptons is applied to quarks, motivated by the quark-lepton assignments of SU(5). Realistic quark masses and mixing angles are obtained, in good agreement with data. In particular, we find a strong…
The residual $\mathbb Z^{23}_2$ ($\mathbb Z^{\mu\tau}_2$) and $\mathbb Z^{12}_2$ ($\mathbb Z^s_2$ or $\overline{\mathbb Z}^s_2$) symmetries can not only apply to the lepton sector, but also explain the mainly $1$--$2$ mixing in the quark…
The latest experimental progress have established three kinds of neutrino oscillations with three mixing angles measured to rather high precision. There is still one parameter, i.e., the CP violating phase, missing in the neutrino mixing…
A novel relation is found which gives the 2-3 lepton mixing angle in terms of quark masses and CKM mixing: \tan\theta_{\mu\tau}=(m_b/m_s)V_{cb}. This relation, which is remarkably in good agreement with the quark data and the large lepton…
We present a unified parametrization of quark and lepton mixing matrices. By using some simple relations between the mixing angles of quarks and leptons, i.e., the quark-lepton complementarity, we parametrize the lepton mixing matrix with…
The prospects of measuring the leptonic angles and CP-odd phases at a neutrino factory are discussed in two scenarios: 1) three active neutrinos as indicated by the present ensemble of atmospheric plus solar data; 2) three active plus one…
