In this paper, we derive in a novel approach the possible textures of neutrino mass matrix that can lead us to maximal atmospheric mixing angle and Dirac CP phase which are consistent with the current neutrino oscillation data. A total of…
It is found that the seesaw mechanism not only explains the smallness of neutrino masses but also accounts for the large mixing angles simultaneously, even if the unification of the neutrino Dirac mass matrix with that of up-type quark…
We further study a predictive model for the masses and mixing matrix of three Majorana neutrinos. At zeroth order the model yielded degenerate neutrinos and a generalized ``tribimaximal" mixing matrix. At first order the mass splitting was…
If massive neutrinos are Majorana particles, then the lepton number should be violated in nature and neutrino-antineutrino oscillations $\nu^{}_\alpha \leftrightarrow \overline{\nu}^{}_\beta$ (for $\alpha, \beta = e, \mu, \tau$) will…
The searches for an underlying pattern in neutrino masses have motivated different proposals for textures in the neutrino mass matrix, which is also related to particular arrangements of the mixing matrix. Current experimental…
Neutrino mass matrix via a seesaw mechanism is constructed by assuming that the underlying symmetry of both heavy Majorana and Dirac mass matrices is the discrete subgroup $\Delta(27)$ symmetry of SU(3). Using the experimental data of…
Using the type-II seesaw mechanism with three Higgs doublets phi_alpha (alpha = e, mu, tau) and four Higgs triplets, we build a model for lepton mixing based on a 384-element horizontal symmetry group, generated by the permutation group S_3…
The overall characteristics of the solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillation 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,…
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…
In our previous paper, we proposed the democratic-type neutrino mass matrix which gives interesting predictions, $\theta_{23}=-\frac{\pi}4$, $|\tan \theta_{12}|=\sqrt{2-3\sin^2 \theta_{13}}$ and $\delta=\frac {\pi}2$, where $\theta_{ij}$ is…
Effects of the lightest neutrino mass in "flavoured" leptogenesis when the CP-violation necessary for the generation of the baryon asymmetry of the Universe is due exclusively to the Dirac and/or Majorana phases in the neutrino mixing…
The 3 X 3 Majorana neutrino mass matrix is written as a sum of 3 terms, i.e. M_nu = M_A + M_B + M_C, where M_A is proportional to the identity matrix and M_B and M_C are invariant under different Z_3 transformations. This M_nu is very…
We constructed rephasing invariant measures of CP violation with elements of the neutrino mass matrix, in the basis in which the charged lepton mass matrix is diagonal. We discuss some examples of neutrino mass matrices with texture zeroes,…
We discuss the minimal seesaw model for the Dirac CP violating phase of the lepton mixing matrix. We introduce two right-handed Majorana neutrinos and obtain several textures of the tri-maximal lepton mixing matrices. Moreover, we discuss…
Assuming 3-$\nu$ mixing, massive Majorana neutrinos and neutrinoless double-beta (\betabeta-) decay generated only by the (V-A) charged current weak interaction via the exchange of the three Majorana neutrinos, we briefly review the…
We argue that the tri-bimaximal neutrino mixing pattern $V_0$ or its generalized form $V'_0$, which includes two arbitrary Majorana phases of CP violation, may result from an underlying flavor symmetry at a superhigh energy scale close to…
It is found that the seesaw mechanism not only explain the smallness of neutrino masses but also account for the large mixing angles simultaneously, even if the unification of the neutrino Dirac mass matrix with that of up-type quark sector…
We consider a minimal condition that predicts the 1-3 lepton mixing angle $\theta_{13} \simeq \theta_{\rm C}/\sqrt{2}$ with $\theta_{\rm C}$ the Cabibbo angle, and give the improved prediction of $\theta_{13}$. In the case of normal mass…
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 $\theta_{13}=0$.…
On the basis of a seesaw-type mass matrix model for quarks and leptons, $M_f \simeq m_L M_F^{-1} m_R$, where $m_L\propto m_R$ are universal for $f=u,d,\nu$ and $e$ (up-quark-, down-quark-, neutrino- and charged lepton-sectors), and $M_F$…
