We propose a neutrino model based on a $\Delta(54)$ flavor symmetry suitable for explaining the current neutrino oscillation data. Neutrino masses arise from the type II seesaw mechanism where the $\Delta(54)$ field assignments has led to a…

From the new existing data with not vanishing theta13 mixing angle we determine the possible shape of the Majorana neutrino mass matrix. We assume that CP symmetry is broken and all Dirac and Majorana phases are taken into account. Two…
We argue that the tri-bimaximal neutrino mixing pattern $V_0$ or its generalized form $V'_0$, which includes two arbitrary Majorana phases of CP violation, may result from an underlying flavor symmetry at a superhigh energy scale close to…

The Tri-Bi-Maximal pattern has been long investigated as the symmetric scenario that lies behind the neutrino mixing matrix. It predicts a null reactor angle and hence forbids $CP$ violation in the lepton sector, which is in contrast to the…
Assuming Majorana nature of neutrinos, we re-investigate, in the light of the recent measurement of the reactor mixing angle, the allowed ranges for the absolute values of the elements of the neutrino mass matrix in the basis where the…

We determine the possible values of the effective Majorana neutrino mass $|< m > |= |\sum_j U_{ej}^2 m_j|$ in the different phenomenologically viable three and four-neutrino scenarios. The quantities $U_{\alpha j}$ ($\alpha =…
Three CP-violating phases of the $3\times 3$ lepton flavor mixing matrix $V$, denoted as $\delta$, $\rho$ and $\sigma$ in a useful phase convention, are entangled with one another in the one-loop renormalization-group equations. We show…
