Non-zero neutrino mass and dark matter cast a shadow over the success of the Standard Model (SM) of Particle Physics. The most straightforward extension of the SM to explain these two phenomena is the Scotogenic model, where the SM particle…
The pattern of lepton mixing can emerge from breaking a flavor symmetry in different ways in the neutrino and charged lepton Yukawa sectors. In this framework, we derive the conditions imposed on the mixing matrix by the structure of…
We discuss a two Higgs doublet model with extra $U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry where lepton specific (type-X) structure for Yukawa interactions is realized by charge assignment of fields under the $U(1)_X$. Extra charged leptons are introduced to…
We address the possibility of realizing successful leptogenesis from dark matter annihilations in the scotogenic model of neutrino masses to explain the same order of magnitude abundance of dark matter and baryons in the present Universe.…
We discuss radiative neutrino mass models with a general lepton flavor dependent $U(1)$ gauge symmetry. The scotogenic model is adopted for neutrino mass generation in which $Z_2$ odd singlet fermions and an inert scalar doublet are…
This model includes a minimal extension of the standard model with $S_3$ and $Z_2$ symmetries to explain neutrino masses and mixing along with the dark matter phenomenology. Neutrino phenomenology is explored, consistent with the $3 \sigma$…
We study an extension of the Standard Model (SM) in which two copies of the SM Higgs doublet are added to the scalar sector. These extra doublets do not develop a vacuum expectation value, hence, they are \textit{inert}. This essentially…
We construct a model for tri-bimaximal lepton mixing which employs only family symmetries and their soft breaking; neither vacuum alignment nor supersymmetry, extra dimensions, or non-renormalizable terms are used in our model. It is an…
We present a model of the lepton masses and flavor mixing based on the discrete group $S_4 \times Z_2$. In this model, all the charged leptons and neutrinos are assigned to the $3_\alpha$ representation of $S_4$ in the Yamanouchi bases. The…
We establish a hybrid seesaw mechanism to explain small neutrino masses and predict cold dark matter candidate in the context of the B-L gauge symmetry extension of the Standard Model. In this model a new scalar doublet and two new fermion…
The inert Zee model is an extension of the Zee model for neutrino masses to allow for a solution to the dark matter problem that involves two vector-like fields, a doublet and a singlet of ${\rm SU(2)_L}$, and two scalars, also a doublet…
The Inert Doublet Model is one of the simplest and most versatile scenarios for physics beyond the Standard Model. In this work, we examine the prospects for detecting the additional fields of this model at the LHC in the dilepton channel.…
We propose an economical model in which the tiny active neutrino masses arise from an interplay of linear and inverse seesaw mechanisms. The Standard Model is extended by a local $U(1)'$ gauge symmetry and discrete…
We investigate a model with an extra $Z_{2}$ gauge symmetry in the Standard Model. We assume that only the scalars and the leptons carry non-zero charge. The symmetry gives a structure to the mass matrix for the neutrinos. With two extra…
We discuss a possibility to explain the excess of $h\to\mu\tau$ at one-loop level. We introduce three generation of vector-like lepton doublet $L'$ and two singlet scalars $S_{1,2}$ which are odd under $Z_2$, while all the standard model…
We consider some implications of X-ray lines from certain astronomical objects as potential effects of dark matter decay in the context of the scotogenic model, where neutrinos acquire mass radiatively via one-loop interactions with dark…
We have considered a model, originally proposed by Ma and Wegman, where the mixing pattern in neutrino sector is explained with three Higgs doublets, six Higgs triplets and $A_4$ symmetry. The mixing pattern is explained with the help of…
The couplings of the low scale type I see-saw model are severely constrained by the requirement of reproducing the correct neutrino mass and mixing parameters, by the non-observation of lepton number and charged lepton flavour violating…
We investigate flavor phenomenology and dark matter in the context of scotogenic model. In this model, the neutrino masses are generated through radiative corrections at one-loop level. Considering the neutrino mixing matrix to be of…
The Scotogenic mechanism is an appealing pathway to naturally explain the common origin of dark matter and tiny neutrino mass. However, the conventional scotogenic dark matter usually suffers stringent constraints from the non-observation…
