Neutrinos exhibit an interesting phenomenon called 'neutrino oscillation', in which a neutrino changes its flavor after traveling some flight length. Many experiments measured the mixing angles and mass differences, but the angle…

I argue that the observed flavor structures of leptons and quarks might imply the existence of certain flavor symmetries. The latter should be a good starting point to build realistic models towards deeper understanding of the fermion mass…

We propose a novel neutrino mixing pattern in terms of only two small integers 1 and 2 together with their square roots and the imaginary number $i$. This ansatz is referred to as the "tetra-maximal" mixing because it can be expressed as a…

We present a concise review of the recent important experimental developments on neutrino mixing (hints for sterile neutrinos, large $\theta_{13}$, possible non maximal $\theta_{23}$, approaching sensitivity on $\delta_{CP}$) and their…

We present a search for non-zero theta_{13} and deviations of sin^2 theta_{23} from 0.5 in the oscillations of atmospheric neutrino data from Super-Kamiokande -I, -II, and -III. No distortions of the neutrino flux consistent with non-zero…

We propose a 3-3-1 model with neutral fermions based on $A_4$ flavor symmetry responsible for fermion masses and mixings with non-zero $\theta_{13}$. To get realistic neutrino mixing, we just add a new $SU(3)_L$ triplet being in…

Recent neutrino oscillation data hint that the smallest neutrino mixing angle theta_{13} is possible to lie in the range 5^\circ \lesssim \theta_{13} \lesssim 12^\circ. We show that reasonable perturbations to the democratic mixing pattern,…

Solar and atmospheric neutrino anomalies are described by bimaximal mixing of three neutrinos. Neutrino oscillations in appearance nu_e <--> nu_mu,nu_tau and in disappearance nu_e long baseline and atmospheric experiments are sensitive to…

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…

In the supersymmetric seesaw model of neutrino masses, augmented by the non-Abelian discrete tetrahedral symmetry A_4, a specific pattern of neutrino mixing is automatically generated if one of the three heavy singlet neutrino superfields…

The neutrino mixing parameters are thoroughly studied using renormalization-group evolution of Dirac neutrinos with recently proposed parametrization of the neutrino mixing angles referred as `high-scale mixing relations'. The correlations…

We perform a global analysis of neutrino oscillation data, including high-precision measurements of the neutrino mixing angle theta_13 at reactor experiments, which have confirmed previous indications in favor of theta_13>0. Recent data…

We exam the pairs of neutrino mixing matrix and suggest pairs that can be used in the construction of new mixing patterns, with "pair" denoting the equality of the modulus of a pair of matrix elements. The results show that the tri-maximal…

The 3-3-1 model proposed in 2011 based on discrete symmetry $S_4$ responsible for the neutrino and quark masses is updated, in which the non-zero $\theta_{13}$ is focused. Neutrino masses and mixings are consistent with the most recent data…

We study a neutrino mass model with $A_4$ discrete flavor symmetry using a type-I seesaw mechanism. The inclusion of extra flavons in our model leads to the deviations from exact tribimaximal mixing pattern resulting in a nonzero…

It is now widely accepted that a new middle baseline disappearance reactor neutrino experiment with multiple detectors could provide a clean measurement of the $\theta_{13}$ mixing angle, free from any parameter degeneracies and…

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 trimaximal mixing scheme is one of the widely studied neutrino mixing schemes. However, the predicted solar neutrino mixing angle $\theta_{12}$ and the reactor neutrino mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ cannot simultaneously realize their…

There are experimentally determined two best-fit points for the atmospheric neutrino mixing angle $\theta_{23}$: $\sin^2 \theta_{23} = 0.413$ (case A) and $\sin^2 \theta_{23} = 0.594$ (case B). In the bipair neutrino mixing scheme, we…
