We explore the consequences of assuming that the neutrino mass matrix is a linear combination of the matrices of a three dimensional representation of the group $S_3$ and that it has one zero mass eigenvalue. When implemented, these two…
We argue that the accumulated neutrino data, including recent results from KamLAND and K2K, point to a neutrino mixing matrix with (V_{11}, V_{21}, V_{31}; V_{21}, V_{22}, V_{32}; V_{13}, V_{23}, V_{33}) = (-2/\sqrt{6}, 1/\sqrt{6},…
It is consistent with the measurement of \theta_13 ~ 0.15 by Daya Bay to suppose that, in addition to being unitary, the neutrino mixing matrix is also almost hermitian, and thereby only a small perturbation from diag(+1,-1,-1) in a…
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…

A unified approach to parametrization of the mixing matrix for $N$ generations is developed. This approach not only has a clear geometrical underpinning but also has the advantage of being economical and recursive and leads in a natural way…
We present a short discussion on the expected magnitude of $|U_{e3}|$ in the context of various scenarios proposed to describe neutrino masses and mixing. Generic expectation is relatively large ($>0.05$) values for $\ue3$ which occur in…
We have discussed the impact of $U_{e3}$ on the model of the neutrino mass matrix. In order to get the small $U_{e3}$, some flavor symmetry is required. Typical two models are investigated. The first one is the model in which the bi-maximal…

Neutrino mixing is studied from a symmetry perspective, both bottom-up and top-down. In the bottom-up approach, we start from the tri-bimaximal mixing, or one of its three partial patterns, and construct a list of horizontal symmetry groups…
A rephasing invariant parametrization is introduced for three flavor neutrino mixing. For neutrino propagation in matter, these parameters are shown to obey evolution equations as functions of the induced neutrino mass. These equations are…
