We propose a generalized $\mu-\tau$ reflection symmetry to constrain the lepton flavor mixing parameters. We obtain a new correlation between the atmospheric mixing angle $\theta_{23}$ and the "Dirac" CP violation phase $\delta_{\rm CP}$.…

Huang and Li [arXiv:2603.00885] have raised the following two points regarding our previous work [arXiv:2502.18029]:(1) The real-value conditions associated with $\mu$-$\tau$ reflection symmetry were overlooked. (2) Inverted Ordering (IO)…

The $\mu$-$\tau$ exchange symmetry in the neutrino mass matrix and its breaking as a perturbation are discussed. The exact $\mu$-$\tau$ symmetry restricts the 2-3 and 1-3 neutrino mixing angles as $\theta_{23} = \pi/4$ and $\theta_{13} = 0$…

We study origin, consequences and testability of a hypothesis of `partial $\mu$-$\tau$' reflection symmetry. This symmetry predicts $ |U_{\mu i}|=|U_{\tau i}|~(i=1,2,3) $ for a single column of the leptonic mixing matrix $U$. Depending on…
