We propose a new type of lepton seesaw model introducing a modular $A_4$ flavor symmetry in which isospin doublet vector fermions play an important role in constructing seesaw mechanisms for both the charged-lepton mass matrix and the…

We study the Zee model in the framework of the split fermion model in $M_4\times S_1/Z_2$ spacetime. Neutrino masses are generated through 1-loop diagrams without the right-handed neutrinos introduced. By assuming an order one anarchical…

We study a double covering of modular $A_4$ flavor symmetry in which we construct lepton models in cases of canonical seesaw and radiative seesaw models. Through $\chi$ square numerical analysis, we show some predictions for the cases,…

Using the type II seesaw approach and properties of discrete flavor symmetry group representations, we build a supersymmetric $A_{4}\times A_{3}$\ neutrino model with $\theta_{13}\neq0$. After describing the basis of this model--which is…
