A special form of the $3 \times 3$ Majorana neutrino mass matrix derivable from $\mu - \tau$ interchange symmetry accompanied by a generalized $CP$ transformation was obtained many years ago. It predicts $\theta_{23} = \pi/4$ as well as…
CP and T asymmetries in neutrino oscillations, in vacuum as well as in matter, are expressed in terms of invariant functions of lepton mass matrices.
Measurements of CP--violating observables in neutrino oscillation experiments have been studied in the literature as a way to determine the CP--violating phase in the mixing matrix for leptons. Here we show that such observables also probe…
The present experimental data on neutrino oscillations, neutrinoless double beta decay and tritium beta decay are collected together and possible mass ranges for Dirac and Majorana neutrinos are found. Four future experimental situations…
We systematically investigate general forms of mass matrices for three-generation up and down quarks, including asymmetrical ones in generation space. Viable zero matrix elements are explored which are compatible with the current…
We extend to the highly degenerate case a recent approach for analyzing the sources of CP violation in baryogenesis models with quasi-degenerate neutrinos. In this approach an expansion of the resummed propagator around the poles is plugged…
The observed pattern of fermion masses and mixing is an outstanding puzzle in particle physics, generally known as the flavor problem. Over the years, guided by precision neutrino oscillation data, discrete flavor symmetries have often been…
The determination of CP violating phases in the Majorana neutrino mixing matrix using phenomenological constraints from neutrino oscillations, neutrinoless double beta decay, ($\mu^-, e^+$) conversion and few other processes is discussed.…
The neutrino mixing parameters are expected to have RG running effect in the presence of new physics. If the momentum transfers at production and detection mismatch with each other, the oscillation probabilities are generally modified and…
Within the framework of residual symmetry, two $\mathbb{Z}_2$ type associate $\mu\tau$ interchange symmetries robustly constrain the Dirac CP phase $\delta$ in a model independent way. Both of them predict simultaneous maximality of…
Assuming lepton number conservation, hermiticity of the neutrino mass matrix and $\nu_{\mu} - \nu_{\tau}$ exchange symmetry, we show that we can determine the neutrino mass matrix completely from the existing data. Comparing with the…
Using the residual symmetry approach, we propose a complex extension of the scaling ansatz on $M_\nu$ which allows a nonzero mass for each of the three light neutrinos as well as a nonvanishing $\theta_{13}$. Leptonic Dirac CP violation…
The high scale mixing unification hypothesis recently proposed by three of us (R. N. M., M. K. P. and G. R.) states that if at the seesaw scale, the quark and lepton mixing matrices are equal then for quasi-degenerate neutrinos, radiative…
Using the fact that the neutrino mixing matrix $U = U^\dagger_{e}U_{\nu}$, where $U_{e}$ and $U_{\nu}$ result from the diagonalisation of the charged lepton and neutrino mass matrices, we analyse the predictions based on the sum rules which…
The presence of non-unitary neutrino mixing can affect the measurement of the three-neutrino leptonic Dirac CP phase and hamper efforts to probe CP violation due to degeneracies of the extra non-unitary CP phase with the standard CP phase.…
We consider minimal modifications to tribimaximal (TBM) mixing matrix which accommodate non-zero mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ and CP violation. We derive four possible forms for the minimal modifications to TBM mixing in a model with $A_4$…
We study decoherence effects on mixing among three generations of neutrinos. We show that in presence of a non--diagonal dissipation matrix, both Dirac and Majorana neutrinos can violate the $CPT$ symmetry and the oscillation formulae…
We consider the perturbatively modified tribimaximal (or bimaximal) mixing to estimate the (Dirac-type) CP phase in neutrino mixing matrix. The expressions for the CP phase are derived from the equivalence between the standard…
We consider leptogenesis in a left-right-symmetric seesaw scenario in which neutrino mass generation and leptogenesis are dominated by the type-II seesaw term. Motivated by grand unification, we assume that the neutrino Dirac mass matrix is…
We study the relation between the Majorana neutrino mass matrices and the neutrinoless double beta decay when CP is not conserved. We give an explicit form of the decay rate in terms of a rephasing invariant quantity and demonstrate that in…
