We propose a new relation between quark mixing matrix and lepton mixing matrix. Since the parameters in the quark sector are well determined, we employ them to describe the mixing of leptons. Phenomenologically, we study the neutrino…

There are experimentally determined two best-fit points for the atmospheric neutrino mixing angle $\theta_{23}$: $\sin^2 \theta_{23} = 0.413$ (case A) and $\sin^2 \theta_{23} = 0.594$ (case B). In the bipair neutrino mixing scheme, we…

Recent experimental data provides evidence for neutrino masses and leads to the possibility of leptonic mixing and CP violation. In this work special attention is dedicated to CP violation in the leptonic sector both at low and at high…
We propose a universal form for quark and lepton mass matrices, which applies in a ``leading order'' approximation where $CP$-violating phases are ignored. Down-quark mass ratios are successfully predicted in our scheme using the measured…
Small discrete family symmetries such as S4, A4 or A5 may lead to simple leading-order predictions for the neutrino mixing matrix such as the bimaximal, tribimaximal or golden ratio mixing patterns, which may be brought into agreement with…
The neutral leptonic sector of the Standard Model presumably consists of three neutrinos with non-zero Majorana masses with properties further determined by three mixing angles and three CP-violating phases. We derive the general…
