Very high energy, short wavelength, neutrinos may interact with the space-time foam predicted by theories of quantum gravity. They would propagate like light through a crystal lattice and be delayed, with the delay depending on the energy.…
We present a unifying approach where weak forces and neutrino oscillations are interpreted under the same standards of torsional hybrid gravity. This gravitational theory mixes metric and metric-affine formalism in presence of torsion and…
Many effective field theories describing gravity cannot arise from an underlying theory based on Riemann geometry or its extensions to include torsion and nonmetricity but may instead emerge from another geometry or may have a nongeometric…
We discuss neutrino oscillations in the framework of the quantum field theory without introducing the concept of neutrino weak eigenstates. The external particles are described by wave packets and the different mass eigenstate neutrinos…

Neutrino oscillations are examined under the broad requirements of Poincar\'e-invariant scattering theory in an S-matrix formulation. This approach can be consistently applied to theories with either field or particle degrees of freedom.…
We argue that the reflection of relic neutrinos from the surface of the Earth results in a significant local $\nu-\bar{\nu}$ asymmetry, far exceeding the expected primordial lepton asymmetry. The net fractional electron neutrino number…
We study neutrino oscillations in a medium of dark matter which generalizes the standard matter effect. A general formula is derived to describe the effect of various mediums and their mediators to neutrinos. Neutrinos and anti-neutrinos…

We use a quantum mechanical charged particle as a test particle which probes the dynamics of force-related fields it is subject to. We allow for geodesic motion and relations involving gravitation appear. Gravitation affects quantum…
The hypothesis is explored that fermion rest mass is due entirely to self-interaction via virtual excitation of gauge bosons. This requires revising the standard model to treat both chiral projections of a fermion field as SU(2) doublets,…
We study spin and flavor oscillations of astrophysical neutrinos under the influence of external fields in curved spacetime. First, we consider spin oscillations in case of neutrinos gravitationally scattered off a rotating supermassive…
In this talk I address the theoretical issue of what new physics is required to make $m_\nu \neq 0$. I then discuss what other things may happen besides neutrino oscillations. In particular I consider a possible new scenario of leptogenesis…
Astrophysical and cosmological arguments and observations give us the most restrictive constraints on neutrino masses, electromagnetic couplings, and other properties. Conversely, massive neutrinos would contribute to the cosmic dark-matter…
We suggest that the presence of a quantum gravity induced minimal length can be explored using neutrino oscillation probabilities. Neutrinos seem ideally suited for this investigation because they can propagate freely over large distances…
The present work can be regarded as a corollary to the paper titled "Neutrino decoherence in presence of strong gravitational fields". Specifically, we investigate the gravitationally-induced decoherence on neutrino oscillation from the…
