We present a supersymmetric see-saw $S_4$ model giving rise to the most general neutrino mass matrix compatible with Tri-Bimaximal mixing. We adopt the $S_4\times Z_5$ flavour symmetry, broken by suitable vacuum expectation values of a…
Modular symmetry offers the possibility to provide an origin of discrete flavour symmetry and to break it along particular symmetry preserving directions without introducing flavons or driving fields. It is also possible to use a weighton…
We construct a neutrino model using the flavour group $S_4\times C_4 \times C_3\times C_2$ under the type-1 seesaw mechanism. The vacuum alignments of the flavons in the model lead to $\text{TM}_1$ mixing with $\sin…
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…
We propose an inverse seesaw model with large $SU(2)_L$ multiplets applying modular $A_4$ symmetry where $SU(2)_L$ quartet and septet fermions are introduced as triplets under the symmetry. The neutral components of the quartet contribute…
We present a comparative analysis of neutrino models based on a broad class of low scale seesaw mechanisms, viz., type II, inverse (ISS) and linear seesaw (LSS) mechanisms that are used to realize the tiny masses of neutrino. In particular,…
We study a type I seesaw model of neutrino masses within the framework of $A_4$ flavor symmetry. Incorporating the presence of both singlet and triplet flavons under $A_4$ symmetry, we construct the leptonic mass matrices involved in type I…
We analyse a flavour model for a lepton sector which is based on type I seesaw mechanism, a Z_2 symmetry for lepton flavours, a mu-tau interchange symmetry and a CP symmetry. This model fits well the data of neutrino mass squared…
We propose a Standard Model extension with underlying A4 flavour symmetry where small Dirac neutrino masses arise from a Type-II seesaw mechanism. The model predicts the "golden" flavour-dependent bottom-tau mass relation, requires an…
We consider a model with an A_4 flavour symmetry, recently proposed by E. Ma, and make a numerical study, through scatter plots, of its neutrino mass matrix.
We consider an extension of the Standard Model with three right-handed (RH) neutrinos and a Dirac pair of extra sterile neutrinos, odd under a discrete $Z_2$ symmetry, in order to have left-right symmetry in the neutrino content and obtain…
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 study a neutrino mass model based on $S_4$ flavor symmetry which accommodates lepton mass, mixing with non-zero $\theta_{13}$ and CP violation phase. The spontaneous symmetry breaking in the model is imposed to obtain the realistic…
In this paper, we present a model based on $A_4$ discrete flavor symmetry implementing inverse and type-II seesaw mechanisms to have LHC accessible TeV scale right-handed neutrino mass and texture one-zero in the resulting Majorana neutrino…
This is a review article about neutrino mass models, particularly see-saw models involving three active neutrinos which are capable of describing both the atmospheric neutrino oscillation data, and the large mixing angle MSW solar solution,…
A seesaw mechanism in an extra-dimension, known as the split seesaw mechanism, provides a natural way to realize a splitting mass spectrum of right-handed neutrinos. It leads to one keV sterile neutrino as a dark matter candidate and two…
We discuss an inverse seesaw model based on right-handed fermion specific $U(1)$ gauge symmetry and $A_4$-modular symmetry. These symmetries forbid unnecessary terms and restrict structures of Yukawa interactions which are relevant to…
We propose a minimal extension of the Standard Model with right-handed neutrinos, governed by a non-holomorphic $A_{4}$ modular flavor symmetry. Within this model framework, the light neutrino masses are generated via the popular type-I…
We propose a hybrid scotogenic inverse seesaw framework in which the Majorana mass term is generated at the one-loop level through the inclusion of a singlet fermion. This singlet Majorana fermion also serves as a viable thermal relic dark…
Current data implies three simple forms of the neutrino mass matrix, each corresponding to the conservation of a non-standard lepton charge. While models based on L_e and L_e - L_mu - L_tau are well-known, little attention has been paid to…
