By assuming there exist three massive non-degenerate Majorana neutrinos, it is possible to describe neutrino mixing with a residual, unbroken discrete Klein subgroup of a larger spontaneously broken flavor symmetry group. Motivated by…
CP-symmetry violates in oscillations of neutrinos in vacuum in presence of three generations. In this case there is an inherent complex phase in PMNS-matrix. When any two neutrino masses degenerate the CP-violation vanishes. In the present…
Currently there are New Physics hints in mixing-induced CP violation S(phi K0), S(pi0 K0) < S(J/psi K0), unequal direct CP violation A(K+ pi-) differs A(K+ pi0), and maybe even in measured S(J/psi K0) vs prediction from global fit to other…
We have studied mixing and masses of three left handed Majorana neutrinos in the model, which assumes exactly degenerate neutrino masses at some "neutrino unification" scale. Such a simple theoretical ansatz naturally leads to…
Assuming a type-I seesaw mechanism for neutrino mass generation and invoking a baryogengesis via leptogenesis scenario, we consider a reasonable hierarchical structure for Dirac neutrino mass matrix, similar to up-type quark mass matrix.…
Within the framework of three lepton families I present a transparent analytical relationship between the neutrino mixing and CP-violating parameters in vacuum and thos in matter. Such a model- and parametrization-independent result will be…

We present neutrino mass matrices which predict the atmospheric neutrino mixing to be almost maximal, $\sin^2 2\theta_{atm}>0.999$, as well as the large solar neutrino mixing, $8/9>\sin^2 2\theta_{sol}>0.87$, and the large CP violation (the…
CP violation in the lepton mass matrix will be probed with good precision in upcoming experiments. The amount of CP violation present in oscillations can be quantified in numerous ways and is typically parameterized by the complex phase…
We readdress the issue of strong CP violation both in the Standard Model and in the Minimal Left-Right Symmetric Model and try to clear the confusion that seems to still pervade the field. We argue that the smallness of strong CP violation,…
A new theoretical insight into the pattern of neutrino mixing and leptonic $CP$ violation is presented. It leads naturally and uniquely to a specific dark sector of three real neutral scalar singlets, with the radiative implementation of…
