We study quark and lepton mass matrix textures in a model containing an additional $U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry with origins in string compactification. The $U(1)_X$ symmetry is broken near the string scale, and we assume that the anomalies are…

It is shown that any $n \times n$ Dirac fermion mass matrix may be written as the sum of $n$ states of equal ``mass''. However, these states are in general not orthogonal. Thus the texture of any such fermion mass matrix may be understood…

We consider the possibility of texture zeros in lepton mass matrices of the minimal left-right symmetric model (LRSM) where light neutrino mass arises from a combination of type I and type II seesaw mechanisms. Based on the allowed texture…

We establish a bijection between the set of finite topological $T_0$-spaces (or partially ordered sets) and equivalence classes of square matrices. The absolute value of the determinant or the rank of these matrices serve as simple homotopy…

We reconstruct the neutrino mass matrix in the flavor basis, using experimental data on neutrino oscillations. Both normal and inverted hierarchy (ordering) of the mass spectrum are considered. The dependence of the matrix structure on CP…

I investigate viable textures with two texture zeros for the inverted neutrino mass matrix, and present the predictions of those textures for the neutrino masses and for lepton mixing. By using an Abelian symmetry and one or two heavy…

Different ansaetze for the breaking of the flavour permutational symmetry according to S(3)L X S(3)R in S(2)L X S(2) give different Hermitian mass matrices of the same modified Fritzsch type, which differ in the symmetry breaking pattern.…

We consider a new approach to fermion masses and mixings in which no special "horizontal" dynamics is invoked to account for the hierarchical pattern of charged fermion masses and for the peculiar features of neutrino masses. The hierarchy…
