We study a neutrino mass model with $A_4$ discrete flavor symmetry using a type-I seesaw mechanism. The inclusion of extra flavons in our model leads to the deviations from exact tribimaximal mixing pattern resulting in a nonzero…

We propose a 3-3-1 model with neutral fermions based on $A_4$ flavor symmetry responsible for fermion masses and mixings with non-zero $\theta_{13}$. To get realistic neutrino mixing, we just add a new $SU(3)_L$ triplet being in…

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…

The present work is inspired by the application of $A_4$ modular symmetry in the linear seesaw framework, which restricts the use of multiple flavon fields. Linear seesaw is realized with six heavy $SU(2)_L$ singlet fermion superfields and…

A modified neutrino mass model with five extra scalars is constructed using $A_{4}$ discrete symmetry group. The resultant mass matrix is able to give necessary deviation from Tribimaximal mixing which reproduces the current neutrino masses…

We present a see-saw $A_4$ model for Tri-Bimaximal mixing which is based on a very economical flavour symmetry and field content and still possesses all the good features of $A_4$ models. In particular the charged lepton mass hierarchies…

This paper investigates an inverse seesaw model of neutrino masses based on non-holomorphic modular $A_4$ symmetry, extending the framework of modular-invariant flavor models beyond the conventional holomorphic paradigm. After the general…

The discrete non-Abelian symmetry $A_4$, valid at some high-energy scale, naturally leads to degenerate neutrino masses, without spoiling the hierarchy of charged-lepton masses. Realistic neutrino mass splittings and mixing angles (one of…

Recently, in ref. \cite{A4Datta} Datta et al. [arXiv:2106.06773] proposed an $A_4$ flavor symmetric model supplemented by $Z_2\times Z_3$ symmetry which can accommodate the appropriate lepton mixing and neutrino masses via Type-I seesaw…

The observed pattern of mixing in the neutrino sector may be explained by the presence of a non-Abelian, discrete flavour symmetry broken into residual subgroups at low energies. Many flavour models require the presence of Standard Model…
