We discuss consequences of combining the effective $Z_2\times Z_2$ symmetry of the tri-bimaximal neutrino mass matrix with the CP symmetry. Imposition of such generalized $Z_2\times Z_2$ symmetries leads to predictive neutrino mass matrices…

Deviations from expectations have been claimed for solar, atmospheric and high energy prompt neutrinos from charm decay. This information, supplemented only by the existing very good upper limits for oscillations of the $\nu_{\mu}$ at…
The smallness of the 1-3 lepton mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ and of the neutrino mass-squared-difference ratio $\Delta m^2_{12}/\Delta m^2_{23}$ can be understood as the departure from a common limit where they both vanish. We discuss in…
We suggest an approach to explain the observed pattern of the neutrino masses and mixing which employs the weakly broken quark-lepton symmetry and does not require introduction of an ad hoc symmetry of the neutrino sector. The mass matrices…
The standard three-neutrino (3nu) oscillation framework is being increasingly refined by results coming from different sets of experiments, using neutrinos from solar, atmospheric, accelerator and reactor sources. At present, each of the…

We discuss consequences of assuming ($i$) that the (Majorana) neutrino mass matrix $M_\nu$ displays flavour antisymmetry, $S_\nu^T M_\nu S_\nu=-M_\nu$ with respect to some discrete symmetry $S_\nu$ contained in $SU(3)$ and ($ii$) $S_\nu$…
The overall characteristics of the solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillations are approximately consistent with a tribimaximal form of the mixing matrix $U$ of the lepton sector. Exact tribimaximal mixing leads to $\theta_{13}=0$. However,…
From the new existing data with not vanishing theta13 mixing angle we determine the possible shape of the Majorana neutrino mass matrix. We assume that CP symmetry is broken and all Dirac and Majorana phases are taken into account. Two…
