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…
In some classes of flavour models based on unified theories with a type I see-saw mechanism, the prediction for the mass of the lightest right-handed neutrino is in conflict with the lower bound from the requirement of successful thermal…

We perform numerical fits of Grand Unified Models based on SO(10), using various combinations of 10-, 120- and 126-dimensional Higgs representations. Both the supersymmetric and non-supersymmetric versions are fitted, as well as both…
Following the recent T2K indication of a sizeable reactor angle, we present a class of models which fix \theta_{13} while preserving trimaximal solar mixing. The models are based on a new type of constrained sequential dominance involving…
We study a minimal framework that naturally yields viable Dark Matter, a strong first-order electroweak phase transition and low-scale resonant leptogenesis. Augmenting the Standard Model with three heavy Majorana neutrinos, we study the…
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…
We derive the most minimal see-saw texture from an extra-dimensional dynamics. It predicts theta_13 = 0.078 \pm 0.015 and m_ee = 2.6 \pm 0.4 meV. Assuming thermal leptogenesis, the sign of the CP-phase measurable in neutrino oscillations,…

We discuss leptogenesis in the light of indications of neutrino masses and mixings from Super-Kamiokande and other data on atmospheric neutrinos, as well as the solar neutrino deficit. Neutrino masses and mixings consistent with these data…
Constraints on the heavy sterile neutrino mixing angles are studied in the framework of a minimal supersymmetric ${\rm SO}(10)$ model with {\it double see-saw mechanism}. A new singlet matter in addition to the right-handed neutrinos is…
