In an economical system with only two heavy right handed neutrinos, we postulate a new texture for $3 \times 2$ Dirac mass matrix $m_D$. This model implies one massless light neutrino and thus displays only two patterns of mass spectrum for…

In theories with three light neutrinos, a complete list of five zeroth-order textures for lepton mass matrices is found, which naturally yield: m_e = m_mu=0, m_tau \neq 0, Delta m^2_sun = 0, together with theta_{e tau} = 0, theta_{mu tau}…

We investigate the physical meaning of some of the "texture zeros" which appear in most of the Ansatze on quark masses and mixings. It is shown that starting from arbitrary quark mass matrices and making a suitable weak basis transformation…
We study the texture two zeros neutrino mass matrices using the standard parametrization for the neutrino mixing matrix. We find that if the origin of CP violation in the leptonic sector is not due to the Dirac-type complex phase of the…
The phenomenological neutrino mass matrix for two-zero symmetric texture has been obtained and used to rule out all possible two-zero symmetric neutrino mass matrices obtained from Yukawa couplings to $\mathbf{10}$ and $\mathbf{126}$ Higgs…

We perform a systematic and complete analysis of texture zeros in the lepton mass matrices and identify all viable and maximally restrictive cases of pairs (M_\ell, M_D) and (M_\ell, M_L), where M_\ell, M_D and M_L are the charged-lepton,…
We study the symmetric texture of geometric form with 2-zeros to see if it is consistent with the presently-known neutrino masses and mixings. In the neutrino mass matrix elements we obtain numerically the allowed region of the parameters…
Under the exponential parametrization scheme $ m^{\nu}_{ij}\sim r e^{i \theta}$, we propose a \emph{unique} neutrino mass matrix texture that exhibits four correlations among its elements. The mixing scheme obtained from the proposed…
