We revisit the generation of a matter-antimatter asymmetry in the minimal extension of the Standard Model with two singlet heavy neutral leptons (HNL) that can explain neutrino masses. We derive an accurate analytical approximation to the…
Approximate flavor symmetries in the quark sector have been used as a handle on physics beyond the Standard Model. Due to the great interest in neutrino masses and mixings and the wealth of existing and proposed neutrino experiments it is…
In view of the recent neutrino oscillation data pointing to a non-vanishing value for the smallest mixing angle ($\theta_z$), we derive and find explicit realizations of the $(Z_2)^3$ flavor symmetry which characterizes, for the neutrino…
We present a study of resonant leptogenesis in a radiative seesaw model. We consider the case where two quasi-degenerate right-handed neutrinos realize resonant leptogenesis, and the CP violation necessary to achieve leptogenesis occurs…
We study the implications of the global U(1)R symmetry present in minimal lepton flavor violating implementations of the seesaw mechanism for neutrino masses. In the context of minimal type I seesaw scenarios with a slightly broken U(1)R,…

We study the new physics contributions to neutrinoless double beta decay ($0\nu\beta \beta$) half-life and lepton flavour violation (LFV) amplitude within the framework of the minimal left-right symmetric model (MLRSM). Considering all…
Neutrino flavor mixing is explained within the recently proposed low-scale minimal linear seesaw model of neutrino mass generation, a variant of the standard linear seesaw led by a Dirac pair of extra sterile neutrinos which is odd under a…
In this paper, we present a systematic investigation on simple inverse seesaw models for neutrino masses and flavor mixing based on the modular $S^{}_4$ symmetry. Two right-handed neutrinos and three extra fermion singlets are introduced to…
We discuss gauge models incorporating $\mu-\tau$ flavored CP symmetry (called CP$^{\mu\tau}$ in the text) in combination with $L_\mu-L_\tau$ invariance to understand neutrino mixings and discuss their phenomenological implications. We show…
Current experimental data allow the zero value for one neutrino mass, either m_1 = 0 or m_3 = 0. This observation implies that a realistic neutrino mass texture can be established by starting from the limit (a) m_1 = m_2 = 0 and m_3 \neq 0…
We present a novel approach for implementing baryogenesis via leptogenesis at low scale within neutrino seesaw framework where a sufficient lepton asymmetry can be generated via out of equilibrium CP-violating decays of right handed…
We study the thermal leptogenesis in the $E_6\times U(1)_A$ SUSY GUT model in which realistic masses and mixings of quarks and leptons can be realized. We show that the sufficient baryon number can be produced by the leptogenesis in the…
We present a model based on an O(3) flavor symmetry and a minimal extension of the scalar sector to induce hierarchical breaking, O(3) -> O(2) -> SO(2) -> nothing. The model naturally accounts for all the known lepton parameters and yields…
We consider a model that accounts for the smallness of neutrino masses through the linear seesaw mechanism and employs a $\Delta(27)$ family symmetry to address the flavour problem. The model is predictive in the leptonic sector and faces…
We show that the four high-energy Littlest Seesaw parameters in the flavour basis,namely two real Yukawa couplings plus the two right-handed neutrino masses, can be determined by an excellent fit to the seven currently constrained…
In this present study, an extended Delta 54 flavor symmetry model incorporating two standard model Higgs doublets is investigated. This model generates neutrino masses through the triple inverse seesaw mechanism. It predicts deviations from…
We present a Froggatt-Nielsen flavor model that yields a minimal realization of the type-I seesaw mechanism. This seesaw model is minimal for three reasons: (i) It features only two rather than three right-handed sterile neutrinos: N_1 and…
We propose a non-minimal left-right symmetric model (LRSM) with Parity Symmetry where the fermion mixings arise as result of imposing an ${\bf S}_{3}\otimes {\bf Z}_{2}$ flavor symmetry, and an extra ${\bf Z}^{e}_{2}$ symmetry is considered…
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…
