The neutrino oscillation data find a good approximation in the so-called tri-bimaximal pattern. Recently a paper appeared showing that also the bimaximal pattern, which is already ruled out by the measurements, could be a very good starting…
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 sum rules which the Dirac phase $\delta$…
we study fermion masses and flavor mixing in a supersymmetric SO(10) model, where $\mathbf{10}$, $\mathbf{120}$ and $\mathbf{\bar{126}}$ Higgs multiplets have Yukawa couplings with matter multiplets and give masses to quarks and leptons…
Fermion masses and mixing angles are studied in an SUSY $SO(10)\times \Delta (48)\times U(1)$ model with small $\tan\beta$. Thirteen parameters involving masses and mixing angles in the quark and charged lepton sector are successfully…
Group theoretical arguments seem to indicate the discrete symmetry S4 as the minimal flavour symmetry compatible with tribimaximal neutrino mixing. We prove in a model independent way that indeed S4 can realize exact tribimaximal mixing…
We have performed a systematical analysis of lepton and quark masses models based on $\Gamma_4\cong S_4$ modular symmetry with gCP symmetry. We have considered both cases that neutrinos are Majorana particles and Dirac particles. All…
We present a scotogenic model, i.e. a one-loop neutrino mass model with dark right-handed neutrino gauge singlets and one inert dark scalar gauge doublet $\eta$, which has symmetries that lead to co-bimaximal mixing, i.e. to an atmospheric…
We propose two schemes for the lepton mixing matrix $U = U_l^\dagger U_\nu$, where $U = U_l$ refers to the charged sector, and $U_\nu$ denotes the neutrino diagonalization matrix. We assume $U_\nu$ to be CP conserving and its three angles…
Freedom from global anomalies in the presence of a local SU(2)_H horizontal symmetry under which right handed charged leptons transform nontrivially requires that there be at least two right handed neutrinos with masses of order of the…
We consider the most general neutrino mass matrix which leads to $\theta_{13} = 0$, and present the formulae needed for obtaining the neutrino masses and mixing parameters in that case. We apply this formalism to a model based on the lepton…
To understand the mass spectra of charged lepton and neutrino $A_4$ symmetry has been proposed in addition with the Standard $SU(2)_L\times U(1)_Y$ model. We break $A_4$ symmetry softly and the deviation from the tri-bimaximal mixing arises…
In this paper, we study the connection between the tribimaximal and bitrimaximal mixing patterns. In doing so, we are forced to work in a non-diagonal charged lepton basis. This leads to several relations that must hold between the lepton…
The $\mu-\tau$ reflection symmetry of the lepton mixing matrix accommodates maximal atmospheric mixing ($\theta_{23}=\pi/4$) as well as maximal Dirac CP phase ($\delta=\pm \pi/2$) for the Dirac case. In the standard parametrization of the…
In the modular symmetry approach to neutrino models, the flavour symmetry emerges as a finite subgroup $\Gamma_N$ of the modular symmetry, broken by the vacuum expectation value (VEV) of a modulus field $\tau$. If the VEV of the modulus…
The well understood structure of $U_{pmns}$ matrix mandates a Cabibbo mixing matrix in the first two generations of the charged lepton sector if we assume Tri-bimaximal mixing in the neutrino sector. This ansatz, called…
There are many mixing schemes based upon flavor symmetries that predict a vanishing $\theta_{13}$. These mixing schemes need corrections or modifications to account for recent experimental measurements of non-zero $\theta_{13}$. We propose…
I report the analysis performed on fermion masses and mixing, including neutrino mixing, within the context of a model with hierarchical radiative mass generation mechanism for light charged fermions, mediated by exotic scalar particles at…
Assuming the Majorana nature of massive neutrinos, we generalize the Friedberg-Lee neutrino mass model to include CP violation in the neutrino mass matrix $M^{}_\nu$. We show that a favorable neutrino mixing pattern (with $\theta^{}_{12}…
We construct a class of renormalizable models for lepton mixing that generate predictions given in terms of the charged-lepton mass ratios. We show that one of those models leads, when one takes into account the known experimental values,…
We prsent a lepton flavor model with $S_4$ and $U(1)_{\mathrm{FN}}$ symmetry. The left-handed leptons are assigned as a triplet under the $S_4$ symmetry, the right-handed electron and muon as $S_4$ doublets, and the right-handed tauon as an…
