We construct a supersymmetric model based on $T'\otimes Z_3\otimes Z_9$ flavor symmetry. At the leading order, the charged lepton mass matrix is not diagonal, $T'$ is broken completely, and the hierarchy in the charged lepton masses is…

We study modular symmetric quark flavor models without fine-tuning. Mass matrices are written in terms of modular forms, and modular forms in the vicinity of the modular fixed points become hierarchical depending on their residual charges.…

We revisit the modular flavor symmetry from a more general perspective. The scalar modular forms of principal congruence subgroups are extended to the vector-valued modular forms, then we have more possible finite modular groups including…

Based on a new approach to quark and lepton masses, where the mass spectra originate in vacuum expectation values of O(3)-flavor 1+5 (gauge singlet) scalars, a neutrino mass matrix of a new type is speculated. The mass matrix is described…

Several phenomenological features of fermion masses and mixings can be accounted for by a simple model for fermion mass matrices, which suggests an underlying U(2) horizontal symmetry. In this context, it is also proposed how an approximate…

We have performed a systematical analysis of lepton and quark masses models based on $\Gamma_4\cong S_4$ modular symmetry with gCP symmetry. We have considered both cases that neutrinos are Majorana particles and Dirac particles. All…

We consider a flavor model based on A4 modular group to account for both lepton and quark parameters (masses and mixing). The inverse seesaw mechanism is considered to produce the light neutrino masses. Lepton masses and mixing are obtained…

The Gell-Mann$-$Okubo (GMO) mass relations following from $\text{SU}(3)$-flavor symmetry breaking in the strong sector have been proven to be of great success for describing hadron masses and classifying them into multiplets. Nowadays, it…

It has been recently claimed that the symmetry group S4 yields to the Tri-bimaximal neutrino mixing in a "natural" way from the group theory point of view. Approving of this feature as an indication, we build a supersymmetric model of…

The fermion mass problem is briefly reviewed. The observed hierarchy of quark and charged lepton masses strongly suggests the existence of an approximately conserved chiral flavour symmetry beyond the Standard Model. It is argued that in…

We review the modular flavor symmetric models of quarks and leptons focusing on our works. We present some flavor models of quarks and leptons by using finite modular groups and discuss the phenomenological implications. The modular flavor…
