Non-zero neutrino mass and dark matter cast a shadow over the success of the Standard Model (SM) of Particle Physics. The most straightforward extension of the SM to explain these two phenomena is the Scotogenic model, where the SM particle…

We present a composite scotogenic model for neutrino masses, which are generated via loops of $\mathbb{Z}_2$-odd composite scalars. We consider three different approaches to the couplings of the neutrinos (including three right-handed…

The present work extends scotogenic and its modular $\mathcal{A}_4$ variation a step forward and demonstrates scotogenic modular $\mathcal{A}_4$ non-supersymmetric realization. To achieve this non-holomorphic modular symmetries come to…

We propose a flavour theory of leptons implementing an $A_4$ family symmetry. Our scheme provides a simple way to derive trimaximal neutrino mixing from first principles, leading to simple and testable predictions for neutrino mixing and CP…

A seesaw mechanism in an extra-dimension, known as the split seesaw mechanism, provides a natural way to realize a splitting mass spectrum of right-handed neutrinos. It leads to one keV sterile neutrino as a dark matter candidate and two…

In 2006, a simple extension of the Standard Model was proposed in which neutrinos obtain radiative Majorana masses at one-loop level from their couplings with dark matter, hence the term "scotogenic," from the Greek "scotos" meaning…

We systematically study and classify scotogenic models with a local U(1) gauge symmetry. These models give rise to radiative neutrino masses and a stable dark matter candidate, but avoid the theoretical problems of global and discrete…

The Dirac Scotogenic model provides an elegant mechanism for generating small Dirac neutrino masses at the one-loop level. A single abelian discrete $Z_{6}$ symmetry simultaneously protects the ``Diracness'' of the neutrinos and the…

We discuss radiative neutrino mass models with a general lepton flavor dependent $U(1)$ gauge symmetry. The scotogenic model is adopted for neutrino mass generation in which $Z_2$ odd singlet fermions and an inert scalar doublet are…

Realistic neutrino mixing is achieved at one-loop level radiatively using $S3\times Z_2$ symmetry. The model comprises of two right-handed neutrinos, maximally mixed to produce the structure of the left-handed Majorana neutrino mass matrix…

Radiative Dirac neutrino masses and their mixing are linked to dark matter through the non-Abelian discrete symmetry $A_5$ of the 4-dimensional pentatope, softly broken to $A_4$ of the 3-dimensional tetrahedron. This unifying understanding…
