We suggest a simple model, based on the type-I seesaw mechanism, for the lepton mass matrices. The model hinges on an Abelian symmetry which leads to mass matrices with some vanishing matrix elements. The model predicts one massless…
Based on existing data, we argue for a peculiar structure of the neutrino mass matrix, that has a block of relatively large elements--a dominant block. We analyze this ansatz and extract its predictions, assuming that the O(1) coefficients…
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…
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…
In this paper, we make an attempt to combine the neutrino trimaximal (TM1 and TM2) mixings and $\mu$-$\tau$ reflection symmetry in the type-I seesaw model. Such a scenario is highly restrictive and predictive: in addition to three…
We propose a simple mechanism which enforces |U_{mu j}| = | U_{tau j}| forall j = 1,2,3 in the lepton mixing matrix U. This implies maximal atmospheric neutrino mixing and a maximal CP-violating phase but does not constrain the reactor…
We introduce an ansatz of the PMNS matrix that consists of specific types of transformations. Bi-maximal mixing is taken for the neutrino masses, while a single-angle rotation in the 1-2 block is taken for the charged lepton masses.…
The radiative seesaw mechanism proposed recently is minimally extended to include supersymmetry in a specific model. Relevant related issues such as leptogenesis and dark matter are discussed.
Tribimaximal leptonic mixing is a mass-independent mixing scheme consistent with the present solar and atmospheric neutrino data. By conveniently decomposing the effective neutrino mass matrix associated to it, we derive generic predictions…
We account for the solar and atmospheric neutrino problems by introducing maximal mixing between conventional and sterile neutrino partners. We achieve this by invoking a seesaw-like mechanism which not only provides us with maximally mixed…
In this work, we construct an A4-based flavor symmetry model within the framework of the type-I seesaw mechanism to realize a light neutrino mass matrix consistent with mu-tau reflection symmetry. The entire framework is based on the…
We phenomenologically build a neutrino mass matrix obeying $\mu-\tau$ symmetry with only two parameters, Cabibbo angle $(\lambda)$ and a flavour twister parameter $(\eta)$. For vanishing $\eta$, the model assumes TBM mixing. When…
We propose a neutrino model based on a $\Delta(54)$ flavor symmetry suitable for explaining the current neutrino oscillation data. Neutrino masses arise from the type II seesaw mechanism where the $\Delta(54)$ field assignments has led to a…
We propose a predictive lepton model under a modular $S_4$ symmetry, where the neutrino mass matrix arises from a radiative seesaw at one-loop level. The tree-level mass matrix is forbidden by well-assigned modular weights, which also play…
Choosing how gauge $U(1)_\chi$ breaks in the context of $SO(10) \to SU(5) \times U(1)_\chi$, $Z_4$ lepton number may be obtained which maintains neutrinos as Dirac fermions. Choosing $\Delta(27)$ as the family symmetry of leptons,…
It has recently been shown that the phenomenologically successful pattern of cobimaximal neutrino mixing ($\theta_{13} \neq 0$, $\theta_{23} = \pi/4$, and $\delta_{CP} = \pm \pi/2$) may be achieved in the context of the non-Abelian discrete…
We consider the problem of neutrino masses and mixing within the general framework of standard (type-I) seesaw models leading to three light neutrinos. Under the assumption of a hierarchical neutrino mass spectrum \lambda^4: \lambda : 1,…
Following recent results from the SNO solar neutrino experiment and the K2K long-baseline neutrino experiment, the combined existing data on neutrino oscillations now point strongly to a specific form for the lepton mixing matrix, with…
The data on neutrino mixing are at present compatible with Tri-Bimaximal (TB) mixing. If one takes this indication seriously then the models that lead to TB mixing in first approximation are particularly interesting and A4 models are…
The three active light neutrinos are used to explain the neutrino oscillations. The inherently bi-large mixing neutrino mass matrix and the Fritzsch type, bi-small mixing charged lepton mass matrix are assumed. By requiring the maximal…
