A model is considered in which the scale of the heavy singlet neutrinos is a few orders of magnitude below the grand unification scale and where right-handed vector bosons play still a negligible role. In a basis with diagonal up-quark and…
We have found three types of neutrino mass textures, which give maximal CP-violation as well as maximal atmospheric neutrino mixing. These textures are described by six real mass parameters: one specified by two complex flavor neutrino…
Out of the fifteen 3 x 3 neutrino mass matrices with two texture zeros seven are compatible with the neutrino oscillation data. While 2 of them correspond to hierarchical neutrino masses and 1 to an inverted hierarchy, the remaining 4…
The simplest unified extension of the MSSM with bi-linear R--Parity violation naturally predicts a hierarchical neutrino mass spectrum, in which one neutrino acquires mass by mixing with neutralinos, while the other two get mass…
We propose a democratic-type neutrino mass matrix based on $Z_3$ symmetry. This mass matrix predicts the CP violation phase, $\delta=\pi/2$, and the mixing angle between the mass eigenstates $\nu_2$ and $\nu_3$, $\sin^2 \theta_{23}= \cos^2…
A special form of the $3 \times 3$ Majorana neutrino mass matrix derivable from $\mu - \tau$ interchange symmetry accompanied by a generalized $CP$ transformation was obtained many years ago. It predicts $\theta_{23} = \pi/4$ as well as…
With the recent experimental advance in our precise knowledge of the neutrino oscillation parameters, the correct form of the 3 X 3 neutrino mass matrix is now approximately known. I discuss how this may be obtained from symmetry…
With the help of current neutrino oscillation data, we illustrate the three-dimensional (3D) profiles of all the six distinct effective Majorana neutrino masses $|\langle m\rangle^{}_{\alpha \beta}|$ (for $\alpha, \beta = e, \mu, \tau$)…
We endeavor to constrain the neutrino mass matrix on the phenomenological ground and procure model-independent textures by emphasizing on the simple linear relationships among the mass matrix elements. These simple textures predict the two…
What information about the neutrino mass spectrum and mixing matrix can be inferred from the existing neutrino oscillation data? We discuss here the answer to this question in the case of mixing of three and four neutrinos. We present the…
The latest results from atmospheric and accelerator neutrino experiments indicate that the normal neutrino mass ordering $m^{}_1 < m^{}_2 < m^{}_3$, a maximal leptonic CP-violating phase $\delta = 270^\circ$ and the second octant of…
The effects of CP-phases on the three absolute quasi-degenerate Majorana neutrino (QDN) masses are stud-ied with neutrino mass matrices obeying {\mu} - {\tau} symmetry for normal as well as inverted hierarchical mass patterns. We have made…
Using the seesaw mechanism, we construct a model for the light-neutrino Majorana mass matrix which yields trimaximal lepton mixing together with maximal CP violation and maximal atmospheric-neutrino mixing. We demonstrate that, in our…
We look for predictive flavour patterns of the effective Majorana neutrino mass matrix that are compatible with current neutrino oscillation data. Our search is based on the assumption that the neutrino mass matrix contains equal elements…
The 3 X 3 Majorana neutrino mass matrix is written as a sum of 3 terms, i.e. M_nu = M_A + M_B + M_C, where M_A is proportional to the identity matrix and M_B and M_C are invariant under different Z_3 transformations. This M_nu is very…
Consider the most general $3 \times 3$ Majorana neutrino mass matrix $\cal M$. Motivated by present neutrino-oscillation data, much theoretical effort is directed at reducing it to a specific texture in terms of a small number of…
We have studied mixing and masses of three left handed Majorana neutrinos in the model, which assumes exactly degenerate neutrino masses at some "neutrino unification" scale. Such a simple theoretical ansatz naturally leads to…
We study mixing and CP violation of three left-handed Majorana neutrinos in the limit of exactly degenerate masses, identify the weak-basis invariant relevant for CP violation and show that the leptonic mixing matrix is parametrized only by…
In the present work we have investigated some patterns of broken ``scaling" ansatz of the neutrino mass matrix. The scaling neutrino mass matrix is disallowed by the current neutrino oscillation data as, among others, it predicts vanishing…
In view of the recently reported evidence for a nonzero Majorana mass of the electron neutrino, together with the established phenomena of atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillations, the case of three nearly mass-degenerate Majorana…
