On the basis of the so-called "yukawaon" model, we found out a special form of the neutrino mass matrix $M_\nu$ which gives reasonable predictions. The $M_\nu$ is given by a multiplication form made of charged lepton mass matrix $M_e$ and…
Stimulated by a successful quark mass matrix model based on U(3)$\times$U(3)$'$ family symmetry, a phenomenological neutrino mass matrix for the Majorana neutrinos $(\nu_L, \nu_R^c, N_L, N_R^c)$ is proposed. The model has only three…

The mass matrix of three Majorana neutrinos of equal mass is not necessarily proportional to the identity matrix, but expressible in terms of two angles and one phase. We discuss how such a mass matrix may be stable or unstable against…
