Generating appropriate tiny neutrino masses via inverse seesaw mechanism within the framework of a particular SU(3)xSU(4)xU(1) gauge model is the main outcome of this letter. It is achieved by simply adding three singlet exotic Majorana…
We consider the seesaw mechanism of neutrino mass generation in the light of our present knowledge of the neutrino masses and mixing. We analyse the seesaw mechanism constrained by the following assumptions: (1) minimal seesaw with no Higgs…
An elegant model is proposed by extending the Standard Model using the $\Delta(27)\times Z_3 \times Z_{10}$ symmetry within the framework of the Type-I + Type-II seesaw mechanism. This model is particularly noteworthy for its ability to…
It is often said that neutrino mass is a window to a new physics beyond the standard model (SM). This is certainly true if neutrinos are Majorana particles since the SM with Majorana neutrino mass is not a complete theory. The classical…
A multiscalar and nonrenormalizable $B-L$ extension of the standard model (SM) with $S_4$ symmetry which successfully explains the recent observed neutrino oscillation data is proposed. The tiny neutrino masses and their hierarchies are…
We study a class of models for tri-bimaximal neutrino mixing in SO(10) grand unified SUSY framework. Neutrino masses arise from both type-I and type-II seesaw mechanisms. We use dimension five operators in order to not spoil tri-bimaximal…
We investigate supersymmetric scenarios in which neutrino masses are generated by effective d=6 operators in the Kahler potential, rather than by the standard d=5 superpotential operator. First, we discuss some general features of such…
The Majorana nature of neutrinos is strongly motivated from the theoretical and phenomenological point of view. A plethora of neutrino mass models, known collectively as Seesaw models, exist that could generate both a viable neutrino mass…
We consider numerical fits to non-supersymmetric $\mathrm{SO}(10)$-based models in which neutrino mass is generated by the type-I or type-II seesaw mechanism or a combination of both. The fits are performed with a sophisticated top-down…
We discuss a class of left-right symmetric models where the light neutrino masses originate dominantly from type I seesaw mechanism along with a sub-dominant type II seesaw contribution. The dominant type I seesaw gives rise to…
We analyze all possible extensions of the recently proposed minimal renormalizable SUSY SU(5) grand unified model with the inclusion of an additional A4 flavor symmetry. We find that there are five possible cases but only one of them is…
Parametrization of the neutrino mass matrix in terms of well-known measured quantities is an attractive way to obtain a phenomenologically viable form. We propose a model of neutrino mass matrix based on type-II seesaw mechanism adhering…
In the vortex background on a sphere, a single 6-dimensional fermion family gives rise to 3 zero-modes in the 4-dimensional point of view, which may explain the replication of families in the Standard Model. Previously, it had been shown…
We propose a supersymmetric A4 x SU(5) model of quasi-degenerate neutrinos which predicts the effective neutrino mass m_ee relevant for neutrinoless double beta decay to be proportional to the neutrino mass scale, thereby allowing its…
The $\mu \nu$SSM proposes to use right-handed neutrino supermultiplets in order to generate the $\mu$ term and neutrino masses simultaneously. We discuss neutrino physics and the associated electroweak seesaw mechanism in this model. We…
In the framework of SO(10) gauge unification and the seesaw mechanism, we show that the upper bound on the mass of the heaviest right-handed neutrino $M_{R_3} < 3 \times 10^{11}$ GeV, given by the Pati-Salam intermediate scale of $B-L$…
We present a TeV-scale left-right ultraviolet completion of type-I seesaw for neutrino masses based on the $SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R\times U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge group without parity, which leads to "large" light-heavy neutrino mixing while keeping…
We investigate the possibility of accommodating neutrino masses compatible with the MSW study of the Solar neutrino deficit within the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model. The ``gravity-induced'' seesaw mechanism based on an interplay of…
We present an $A4$-based model where neutrino masses arise from a combination of see-saw mechanisms. The model is motivated by several small mixing and mass parameters indicated by the data. These are $\theta_{13}$, the solar mass…
The inverse seesaw mechanism of neutrino mass, i.e. m_nu = (m_D^2/m_N^2)epsilon_L where epsilon_L is small, is discussed in the context of the U(1)_Sigma model. This is a gauge extension of the Standard Model of particle interactions with…
