Finding a rationale behind the observed pattern of neutrino mixings has been at the focus of neutrino flavor model building. Many different approaches have been put forward including models based on symmetries. Among the most predictive…
Recent solar & atmospheric nu-data strongly indicate need for physics beyond the Standard Model. I review the ways of reconciling them in terms of 3-nu oscillations. Though not implied by data, bi-maximal nu-mixing models emerge as a…
We point out two simple but instructive possibilities to construct the charged lepton and neutrino mass matrices, from which the nearly bi-maximal neutrino mixing with large T violation can naturally emerge. The two lepton mixing scenarios…
In the present work, the inverted hierarchical neutrino mass model which is characterised by opposite CP parity in the first two mass eigenvalues $(m_1,-m_2,m_3)$, is studied in order to lower the predicted value of solar mixing angle…
We consider phenomenologically allowed structures of the neutrino mass matrix in the case of three light neutrino species. Constraints from the solar, atmospheric and reactor neutrino experiments as well as those from the neutrinoless…
What information about the neutrino mass spectrum and mixing matrix can be inferred from the existing neutrino oscillation data? We discuss here the answer to this question in the case of mixing of three and four neutrinos. We present the…
We discuss a minimal predictive see-saw model in which the right-handed neutrino mainly responsible for the atmospheric neutrino mass has couplings to (nu_e, nu_mu, nu_tau) proportional to (0,1,1) and the right-handed neutrino mainly…
Residual symmetry $G_\nu$ of neutrino mass matrix with a massless neutrino and embedding of $G_\nu$ and the residual symmetry $G_l$ of the charged lepton mass matrix into finite discrete groups $G$ is discussed. Massless neutrino results if…
The JUNO collaboration has released its first measurement of reactor neutrino oscillations results, obtaining $\sin^2\theta_{12} = 0.3092\pm 0.0087$, an improvement in precision by a factor of 1.6 over previous combined results. We confront…
Recent (first or/and the best) results from the neutrino experiments are reviewed and their implications for the theory are discussed. The sense of the experiments is the searching for neutrino masses, mixing and interactions beyond the…
We consider a class of models of neutrino mixing with $S_4$ flavour symmetry and generalised CP symmetry, broken to $Z_2$ and $Z_2 \times {\rm CP}$ residual symmetries in the charged lepton and neutrino sectors, respectively. In this…
We discuss models where the U(1) symmetries of lepton numbers are responsible for maximal neutrino mixing. We pay particular attention to an extension of the Standard Model with three right-handed neutrino singlets in which we require that…
We discuss all possible schemes with four massive neutrinos inspired by the existing experimental indications in favour of neutrino mixing, namely the atmospheric, solar and LSND neutrino experiments. We argue that the scheme with a…
In this talk I review the present status of neutrino masses and mixing and some of their implications for particle physics phenomenology. I first discuss the minimum extension of the Standard Model of particle physics required to…
Maximum mixing in atmospheric neutrino oscillation, as well as vanishing of the MNS matrix element $U_{e3}$, are consequences of a 2-3 symmetry, under which the neutrino mass matrix is invariant under the interchange of second and third…
Neutrino mass sum rules relate the three neutrino masses within generic classes of flavour models, leading to restrictions on the effective mass parameter measured in experiments on neutrinoless double beta decay as a function of the…
We briefly discuss the present status of models of neutrino mixing. Among the existing viable options we review the virtues of Bimaximal Mixing (that could be implemented by an $S_4$ discrete symmetry), corrected by terms arising from the…
The symmetry between quarks and leptons suggests that neutrinos should have mass. As embodied in the grand unified theory SO(10) this yields masses that can only be detected by neutrino oscillations. Such oscillations could be very…
Neutrino physics is nowadays receiving more and more attention as a possible source of information for the long--standing investigation of new physics beyond the Standard Model. The rather recent measurement of the third mixing angle…
Finite discrete subgroups of $U(3)$ as possible flavour symmetries $G_f$ for a massless neutrinos with predictive mixing angles are studied. This is done by assuming that a residual symmetry $S_\nu$ appropriate for describing a massless…
