The observed pattern of lepton flavor mixing and CP violation strongly indicates the possible existence of a simple flavor symmetry in the neutrino sector -- the effective Majorana neutrino mass term keeps invariant when the three…
We propose a simple model of the neutrino mass matrix which can explain the solar and atmospheric neutrino problems in a 3($\nu_L + \nu_R$) framework. Assuming that only two right-handed neutrinos are heavy and a Dirac mass matrix has a…
We study the effect of radiative corrections on the structure of neutrino mass matrix. We analyze the renormalization of the matrix from the electroweak scale $m_Z$ to the scale $m_0$ at which the effective operator that gives masses to…
I briefly summarize neutrino oscillation results and discuss their robustness. I mention recent attempts to understand the pattern of neutrino mixing within various seesaw mechanisms, with or without supersymmetry and/or flavor symmetries.…
We present an effective flavor model for the radiative generation of fermion masses and mixings based on a SU(5)xU(2) symmetry. We assume that the original source of flavor breaking resides in the supersymmetry breaking sector. Flavor…
Symmetry-based ideas, such as the quark-lepton complementarity (QLC) principle and the tri-bimaximal mixing (TBM) scheme, have been proposed to explain the observed mixing pattern of neutrinos. We argue that such symmetry relations need to…
In the constrained sequential dominance (CSD), tri-bimaximal mixing (TBM) pattern in the neutrino sector has been explained, by proposing a certain Yukawa coupling structure for the right-handed neutrinos of the model. However, from the…
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…
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…
We consider the running of the neutrino mass matrix in the Standard Model and the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, extended by heavy singlet Majorana neutrinos. Unlike previous studies, we do not assume that all of the heavy mass…
We reconsider the possibility that the masses of the three light neutrinos of the Standard Model might be almost degenerate and close to the present upper limits from Tritium beta decay and cosmology. In such a scenario, the cancellations…
Minimal SO(10) grand unified models provide phenomenological predictions for neutrino mass patterns and mixing. These are the outcome of the interplay of several features, namely: i) the seesaw mechanism; ii) the presence of an intermediate…
The hierarchy in scale between atmospheric and solar neutrino mass splittings is investigated through two distinct neutrino mass mechanisms, from tree- and one-loop-level contributions. We demonstrate that the minimal discrete dark matter…
In 2002, two neutrino mixing ansatze having trimaximally mixed middle ($\nu_2$) columns, namely tri-chi-maximal mixing ($\text{T}\chi\text{M}$) and tri-phi-maximal mixing ($\text{T}\phi\text{M}$), were proposed. It was recently shown that…
The present manuscript studies a recently proposed new neutrino mixing scheme with a neutrino mass selection rule, $m_{\nu}^{13} + m_{\nu}^{22} + m_{\nu}^{31} = 0$, among a neutrino mass matrix elements. The neutrino mass matrix texture is…
In this paper we propose a novel supersymmetric inverse seesaw model which has only one additional $Z_6$ symmetry. The field content is minimal to get a viable neutrino spectrum at tree-level. Interestingly, the inverse seesaw scale in our…
We point out that the minimal seesaw model can provide a natural framework to accommodate tiny neutrino masses, while its experimental testability and notable predictiveness are still maintained. This possibility is based on the observation…
We construct a realistic model based on SUSY SO(10) with U(2) flavor symmetry. A set of symmetric mass textures give rise to very good predictions; 15 masses and 6 mixing angles are predicted by 11 parameters. Both the vacuum oscillation…
Singular values are used to construct physically admissible 3-dimensional mixing matrices characterized as contractions. Depending on the number of singular values strictly less than one, the space of the 3-dimensional mixing matrices can…
Neutrinos stand out among elementary particles through their unusually small masses. Various seesaw mechanisms attempt to explain this fact. In this work applying insights from matrix theory we are in a position to treat variants of seesaw…
