The vacuum oscillation (VO) solution to the solar anomaly requires an extremely small neutrino mass splitting, Delta m^2_{sol}\leq 10^{-10} eV^2. We study under which circumstances this small splitting (whatever its origin) is or is not…

We have constructed an $SU(3)_L \times U(1)_N$ gauge model utilizing an $U(1)_{L^\prime}$ symmetry, where $L^\prime$ = $L_e-L_\mu-L_\tau$, which accommodates tiny neutrino masses generated by $L^\prime$-conserving one-loop and…
A lower bound on $\Delta m^{2}$ for atmospheric neutrino oscillations can be obtained from the global value of $R$ at a given energy. This bound may be more reliable than one based on the observed isotropy. Some global values of $R$ imply…
We perform a global three generation analysis of the current solar and atmospheric evidence in favor of neutrino oscillations. We also include the negative results coming from CHOOZ to constrain the nu_e mixing. We study the zones of…

We discuss models of neutrino masses that lead to a large mixing angle for atmospheric neutrino oscillations. In particular we study a mechanism where a simple texture for the Dirac matrix leads to the observed pattern of mixings for a…
We suggest a would-be solution to the solar neutrino tension why solar neutrinos appear to mix differently from reactor antineutrinos, in theoretical respect. To do that, based on an extended theory with light sterile neutrinos added we…
Recent solar & atmospheric nu-data strongly indicate need for physics beyond the Standard Model. I review the ways of reconciling them in terms of 3-nu oscillations. Though not implied by data, bi-maximal nu-mixing models emerge as a…
In a model with four neutrino mass eigenstates grouping in two narrow doublets the condition of maximal mixing of the doublet neutrino components leads to a simple four-neutrino mixing matrix which is related to two connected effective…
Inspired by the atmospheric multi-GeV neutrino data, we consider neutrino flavor mixing matrices which are maximal in a $2\times 2$ subsector. This condition is a strong restriction: the full matrix including complex phases depends…
A $Z_{2L}\times Z_{2R}$ generation symmetry in the neutrino sector predicts the atmospheric neutrino mixing to be maximal, and the MNS matrix element $U_{e3}$ to be zero, consistent with observations. Solar neutrino mixing may be maximal…
Two schemes of mixing of four massive neutrinos with two close neutrino masses separated by a gap of Delta m^2 about 1 eV^2 can accommodate solar, atmospheric and LSND neutrino oscillation data. It is shown that long-baseline nu(e)->nu(x)…
It is shown that at least four massive neutrinos are needed in order to accommodate the evidences in favor of neutrino oscillations found in solar and atmospheric neutrino experiments and in the LSND experiment. Among all four-neutrino…

The case for small neutrino mass differences from atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillation experiments has become compelling, but leaves the overall neutrino mass scale m_nu undetermined. The most restrictive limit of m_nu < 0.8 eV arises…
