We present a tri-bimaximal lepton mixing scheme where the neutrinoless double beta decay rate (bb0v) has a lower bound which correlates with the ratio alpha = Dmsol/Dmatm well determined by current data, as well as with the unknown Majorana…
Models of neutrino mass which attempt to describe the observed lepton mixing pattern are typically based on discrete family symmetries with a non-Abelian and one or more Abelian factors. The latter so-called shaping symmetries are imposed…
We study the modification of the Altarelli-Feruglio $A_4$ flavor symmetry model by adding three singlet flavons $\xi'$, $\xi''$ and $\rho$ and the model is augmented with extra $Z_2\times Z_2^ \prime$ symmetry to prevent the unwanted terms…
Our analysis involves enhancing the $\Delta(54)$ flavor symmetry model with Inverse Seesaw mechanism along with two SM Higgs through the incorporation of distinct flavons. Additionally, we introduce supplementary $Z_2\otimes Z_3 \otimes…
Current experimental data allow the zero value for one neutrino mass, either m_1 = 0 or m_3 = 0. This observation implies that a realistic neutrino mass texture can be established by starting from the limit (a) m_1 = m_2 = 0 and m_3 \neq 0…
The A4 group stands in the basis of many models that predict Tri-Bimaximal neutrino mixing at leading order. We study the Altarelli-Feruglio A4 symmetry model and show that in order to produce as small value of r_{23} (ratio of mass-squared…
We formulate and discuss a 4-dimensional SUSY version of an A4 model for tri-bimaximal neutrino mixing which is completely natural. We also study the next-to-the-leading corrections and show that they are small, once the ratios of A4…
In order to accommodate nonzero and relatively large of mixing angle $\theta_{13}$, we modified the tribimaximal mixing(TBM) matrix by introducing a simple perturbation matrix to perturb TBM matrix. The modified TBM can reproduce nonzero…
We discuss a particularly symmetric model of neutrino mixings where, with good accuracy, the atmospheric mixing angle theta_{23} is maximal, theta_{13}=0 and the solar angle satisfies sin^2(theta_{12})=1/3 (Harrison-Perkins-Scott (HPS)…
A class of discrete flavor-symmetry-based models predicts constrained neutrino mass matrix schemes that lead to specific neutrino mass sum-rules (MSR). One of these implies in a lower bound on the effective neutrinoless double beta mass…

Neutrinoless double-$\beta$ decay is of fundamental importance for the determining neutrino mass. By combining a calculation of nuclear matrix elements within the framework of the microscopic interacting boson model (IBM-2) with an improved…
An elegant model is proposed by extending the Standard Model using the $\Delta(27)\times Z_3 \times Z_{10}$ symmetry within the framework of the Type-I + Type-II seesaw mechanism. This model is particularly noteworthy for its ability to…
The tri-bimaximal mixing matrix is most likely the leading order term in the description of leptonic mixing. We derive deviations from tri-bimaximal mixing(TBM) due to corrections from the charged lepton sector. We assume a decoupled 2-3…
Global fits to neutrino oscillation data are compatible with tri-bimaximal mixing pattern, which predicts $\theta_{23} = \frac{\pi}{4}, \theta_{12} = \sin^{-1} (\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}})$ and $\theta_{13} = 0$. We propose here to parametrize the…
We propose two new simple lepton flavor models in the framework of the $S_4$ flavor symmetry. The neutrino mass matrices, which are given by two complex parameters, lead to the inverted mass hierarchy. The charged lepton mass matrix has the…
In a new application of the discrete non-Abelian symmetry A_4 using the canonical seesaw mechanism, a three-parameter form of the neutrino mass matrix is derived. It predicts the following mixing angles for neutrino oscillations:…
