We consider leptogenesis in a left-right-symmetric seesaw scenario in which neutrino mass generation and leptogenesis are dominated by the type-II seesaw term. Motivated by grand unification, we assume that the neutrino Dirac mass matrix is…

In the framework of seesaw models with only two heavy Majorana neutrinos, nonzero leptonic asymmetries can be radiatively generated when exact heavy neutrino mass degeneracy ($M_1=M_2=M$) is imposed at a scale $\Lambda_D > M$. For a…

Low-scale leptogenesis scenarios, such as the resonant or ARS leptogenesis, typically require a highly degenerate mass spectrum of right-handed neutrinos (RHNs). This requirement can be circumvented by extending the seesaw framework with a…

Baryogenesis through neutrino oscillations is an elegant mechanism which has found several realizations in the literature corresponding to different parts of the model parameter space. Its appeal stems from its minimality and dependence…

We introduce a lepton mass generation and flavor mixing model, realized through a (2,3) inverse seesaw structure based on modular \( S_4 \) symmetry. The model employs modular forms to construct the lepton Yukawa couplings, significantly…
