The standard model of quarks and leptons is extended to include the gauge symmetry $U(1)_\chi$ which comes from $SO(10) \to SU(5) \times U(1)_\chi$. The radiative generation of Dirac neutrino masses through dark matter is discussed in two…
The scotogenic model generates Majorana neutrino masses radiatively, with dark matter particles running in the loop. We explore the parameter space in which the relic density of fermionic dark matter is generated via a conversion-driven…

The Standard Model lacks an organizing principle to describe quark and lepton ``flavours''. Neutrino oscillation experiments show that leptons mix very differently from quarks, adding a major challenge to the flavour puzzle. We briefly…

The scotogenic model proposed by Ernest Ma represents an attractive and minimal example for the generation of small Standard Model neutrino masses via radiative corrections in the dark matter sector. In this paper, we demonstrate that, in…

The recent observation of a Higgs boson at the LHC and experimental confirmation of nonvanishing neutrino-mixing parameter sin(theta_13) offer important means to test physics beyond the standard model. We explore this within the context of…
We study the prediction for leptogenesis in two renormalizable supersymmetric $SO(10)\times A_4$ modular models in which the neutrino mass is dominantly generated by the type I seesaw mechanism. The evolution of the lepton asymmetries are…
We present a renormalizable flavor model with Z_4 as flavor symmetry in both the quark and lepton sectors. The model is constructed with a minimal approach and no-right handed neutrinos are introduced. In this approach a minimum number of…
We present a simple modification of the Altarelli-Feruglio $A_4$ flavor symmetry model using a minimal number of parameters congruous with the symmetries of the original theory. The resulting model is consistent with all presently known…
We present an S$_4$ flavour symmetric model within a minimal seesaw framework resulting in mass matrices that leads to TM$_1$ mixing. Minimal seesaw is realized by adding two right-handed neutrinos to the Standard Model. The model predicts…
We discuss two extensions of the Standard Model based on the seesaw mechanism and on non-abelian family symmetry groups O(2) and $D_4$, respectively. Both models have a twofold-degenerate neutrino Dirac mass matrix $M_D$, a Majorana mass…

We propose a flavour theory of leptons implementing an $A_4$ family symmetry. Our scheme provides a simple way to derive trimaximal neutrino mixing from first principles, leading to simple and testable predictions for neutrino mixing and CP…
We propose a simple extension of the standard model where neutrinos get naturally small "scotogenic" Dirac masses from an unbroken gauged $B-L$ symmetry, ensuring dark matter stability. The associated gauge boson gets mass through the…
In this paper, we investigate lepton mass spectra, flavor mixing and CP violation with a modular $S^{}_4$ symmetry under the assumption that neutrinos are Dirac fermions. We find that the Majorana mass term can be forbidden by adjusting the…
We review theoretical frameworks in which small neutrino masses arise radiatively through interactions with a dark sector that also accounts for cosmological dark matter (DM). A prototype is provided by scotogenic schemes, that extend the…
