The unprecedented precision now being achieved in the measurement of the Pontecorvo--Maki--Nakagawa--Sakata (PMNS) lepton mixing matrix opens a new window onto the underlying structure of the neutrino mass matrix and the possibly associated…
We estimate the PMNS (Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata) matrix in terms of neutrino and charged lepton mixing given as $U_{\rm PMNS}=V_{\rm lep}^\dagger(\tilde\theta_{13}) U_\nu(\tilde\theta_{23}, \tilde\theta_{12})$, based on a new…
I report the analysis performed on fermion masses and mixing, including neutrino mixing, within the context of a model with hierarchical radiative mass generation mechanism for light charged fermions, mediated by exotic scalar particles at…
The pattern of lepton mixing can emerge from breaking a flavor symmetry in different ways in the neutrino and charged lepton Yukawa sectors. In this framework, we derive the conditions imposed on the mixing matrix by the structure of…
In order to explain the fermion masses and mixings naturally, we introduce a specific flavor symmetry and mass suppression pattern that constrain the flavor structure of the fermion Yukawa couplings. Our model describes why the hierarchy of…
We present a model of neutrino mixing based on the flavour group $\Delta(27)$ in order to account for the observation of a non-zero reactor mixing angle ($\theta_{13}$). The model provides a common flavour structure for the charged-lepton…
In the theoretical framework of Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) plus three right-handed neutrinos we consider a universal treatment for the mass matrices, aside from that the active neutrinos acquire their small mass through the type-I…
We present a model for leptonic mixing and the lepton masses based on flavor symmetries and higher-dimensional mass operators. The model predicts bilarge leptonic mixing (i.e., the mixing angles theta_{12} and theta_{23} are large and the…
We discuss the possibility of enforcing a massless Majorana neutrino in the direct and semi-direct approaches to lepton mixing, in which the PMNS matrix is partly predicted by subgroups of a discrete family symmetry, extending previous…
We introduce an ansatz of the PMNS matrix that consists of specific types of transformations. Bi-maximal mixing is taken for the neutrino masses, while a single-angle rotation in the 1-2 block is taken for the charged lepton masses.…
Flavor hierarchies are organized by a single parameter $B\simeq 5.357$ in a single-flavon Froggatt--Nielsen (FN) framework, in which each effective Yukawa entry arises from the sum of \emph{three} unit-magnitude messenger chains. We present…
We propose a universal mixing hypothesis between quark and lepton sectors at high energy scale (probably GUT scale) where quark-lepton universality holds. Namely in the charged lepton diagonal base, all the other mass matrices for up and…
The mass matrices of the charged leptons and neutrinos, previously derived in a minimal S_3-invariant extension of the Standard Model, were reparametrized in terms of their eigenvalues. We obtained explicit, analytical expressions for all…
We perform an exhaustive analysis of all possible breaking patterns arising from $S_4\rtimes H_{CP}$ in a new {\it tri-direct CP approach} to the minimal seesaw model with two right-handed neutrinos, and construct a realistic flavour model…
After the successful investigation and confirmation of non zero $\theta_{13}^{PMNS}$ by various experiments, we are standing at a square where we still encounter a number of issues, which are to be settled. In this paper, we have extended…
The complementarity between the quark and lepton mixing matrices is shown to provide robust predictions. We obtain these predictions by first showing that the matrix V_M, product of the quark (CKM) and lepton (PMNS) mixing matrices, may…
Using the fact that the neutrino mixing matrix $U = U^\dagger_{e}U_{\nu}$, where $U_{e}$ and $U_{\nu}$ result from the diagonalisation of the charged lepton and neutrino mass matrices, we consider a number of forms of $U_{\nu}$ associated…
We present a supersymmetric model with the flavour symmetry S4 x Z3 and a CP symmetry which are broken to a Z3 subgroup of the flavour symmetry in the charged lepton sector and to Z2 x CP (x Z3) in the neutrino one at leading order. This…
Recent data of reactor neutrino experiments set more stringent constraint on leptonic mixing patterns. We examine all possible patterns on the basis of combinations of elementary correlations of elements of leptonic mixing matrix. we obtain…
We present a model for lepton masses and mixing angles using the deconstruction setup, based on a non-Abelian flavor symmetry which is a split extension of the Klein group. The symmetries enforce an approximately maximal atmospheric mixing…
