The latest data from Planck collaboration has presented an improved sensitivity limit of the sum of neutrino masses ($\Sigma$), $\Sigma <0.17eV$ at 95$\%$ confidence level (CL). On the other hand, the updated global fits of neutrino…
The unitarity triangles of the $3\times 3$ Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix are studied in a systematic way. We show that the phases of the nine CKM rephasing invariants are indeed the outer angles of the six unitarity triangles and…

Using the most recent determinations of several theoretical and experimental parameters, we update the Unitarity Triangle analysis in the Standard Model. The basic experimental constraints come from the measurements of epsilon_k, Vub/Vcb…

The issue of texture specific fermion mass matrices have been examined briefly from the `bottom-up' perspective. In case no conditions are imposed, the texture ansatze leads to a large number of viable possibilities. However, besides…

In this paper, we consider a three-zero texture with diagonal reflection symmetries in the SM. The three-zero texture has two less assumptions ($(M_{u})_{11} , (M_{\nu})_{11} \neq 0$) than the universal four-zero texture of mass matrices…
