In this paper, we attempt to implement the neutrino $\mu$-$\tau$ reflection symmetry (which predicts $\theta^{}_{23} = \pi/4$ and $\delta = \pm \pi/2$ as well as trivial Majorana phases) in the minimal seesaw (which enables us to fix the…
The neutrino $\mu$-$\tau$ reflection symmetry has been attracting a lot of attention as it predicts the interesting results $\theta^{}_{23} = \pi/4$ and $\delta = \pm \pi/2$. But it is reasonable to consider breakings of such a symmetry…
The $\mu$-$\tau$ reflection symmetry serves as a unique basis for understanding the observed neutrino mixing as it can lead us to the interesting results $\theta^{}_{23} = \pi/4$ and $\delta = -\pi/2$ which stand close to the current…
The present neutrino oscillation data allow $m^{}_1 = 0$ (or $m^{}_3 = 0$) for the neutrino mass spectrum and support $\theta^{}_{23} \simeq \pi/4$ and $\delta \simeq -\pi/2$ as two good approximations for the PMNS lepton flavor mixing…
We point out that the observed neutrino mixing pattern at low energies is very likely to originate from the 3 times 3 lepton flavor mixing matrix U which possesses the exact mu-tau permutation symmetry |U_{mu i}| = |U_{tau i}| (for i=1,2,3)…
We investigate the consequences of $\mu-\tau$ reflection symmetry in presence of a light sterile neutrino for the $3+1$ neutrino mixing scheme. We discuss the implications of total $\mu-\tau$ reflection symmetry as well partial $\mu-\tau$…

The recent global analysis of three-flavor neutrino oscillation data indicates that the {\it normal} neutrino mass ordering is favored over the inverted one at the $3\sigma$ level, and the best-fit values of the largest neutrino mixing…
We embed $\mu-\tau$ reflection symmetry into the minimal seesaw formalism, where two right-handed neutrinos are added to the Standard Model of particle physics. Assuming that both the left- and right-handed neutrino fields transform under…
$\mu-\tau$ reflection symmetry is an attractive flavour symmetry in lepton mixing, which accommodates maximal values of atmospheric mixing angle ($\theta_{23}=\pi/4$) and Dirac CP phase ($\delta=\pi/2/3\pi/2$). Another significance of this…
Resolving mass ordering is an important issue in the neutrino physics. In Ref.\cite{yt} the authors investigate the phenomenology of a unified neutrino mixing framework and reveal that the predicted sum of neutrino masses derived from an…
We consider minimal type-I seesaw framework to realize $ \mu-\tau $ reflection symmetry in the low-energy neutrino mass matrix, $ M_{\nu} $. Considering DUNE experiment, we scrutinize its potential to measure the precision of 2-3 mixing…
Neutrino oscillations data indicates that neutrino mixings are consistent with an apparent $\nu_\mu - \nu_\tau$ exchange symmetry in neutrino mass matrix. We observe that in the mininimally extended standard model with the see-saw…
It is known that neutrino oscillations may map $\phi_e : \phi_\mu : \phi_\tau = 1 : 2 : 0$, the initial flavor ratios of ultrahigh-energy neutrino fluxes produced from a distant astrophysical source, into $\phi^D_e : \phi^D_\mu :…
The minimal seesaw framework, embroiling the Dirac neutrino mass matrix $ M_D $ and the Majorana neutrino mass matrix $ M_R $, is quite successful to explain the current global-fit results of neutrino oscillation data. In this context, we…
The tetra-maximal neutrino mixing pattern predicts a relatively large reactor mixing angle theta_13 \approx 8.4^\circ, which is in good agreement with the latest best-fit value theta_13 = 9^\circ. However, its prediction for theta_12…
Neutrino oscillation data indicate that $\theta_{23}$ is close to $\pi/4$ and $\theta_{13}$ is very small. A simple $\mu\leftrightarrow\tau$ exchange symmetry of the neutrino mass matrix predicts $\theta_{23}=-\pi/4$ and $\theta_{13}=0$.…
The T2K collaboration has recently reported their results, which gives the best-fit values of the atmospheric mixing angle $\sin^2 \theta_{23} = 0.53$ and the Dirac CP-violating phase $\delta = -1.89$ for normal neutrino mass ordering. We…
