We present a comprehensive analysis of neutrino mass and lepton mixing in theories with $A_4$ modular symmetry, where the only flavon field is the single modulus field $\tau$, and all masses and Yukawa couplings are modular forms. Similar…
Probing the origin of neutrino mass by disentangling the seesaw mechanism is one of the central issues of particle physics. We address it in the minimal left-right symmetric model and show how the knowledge of light and heavy neutrino…
We show that charged-lepton masses can be radiatively induced in multi-Higgs doublet models (NHDMs) through the renormalization group running of Yukawa couplings from high to low energies. Some extreme examples of electron and muon mass…
The measured values for the mixture angles in neutrino oscillations suggest the existence of a symmetry of interchange of flavor between muon and tau neutrinos. Using this symmetry we analyzed the minimal seesaw model for neutrino masses,…
We introduce a new parametrization of the MNS lepton mixing matrix which separates the hierarchical Grand Unified relations among quarks and leptons. We argue that one large angle stems from the charged leptons, the other from the seesaw…
We explore alternative descriptions of the charged lepton sector in modular invariant models of lepton masses and mixing angles. In addition to the modulus, the symmetry breaking sector of our models includes ordinary flavons. Neutrino mass…
We present an extension $U(1)_{X}$ to the Standard Model that reproduces the lepton mass structures determined by the experiments. In the charged sector, we introduced effective operators of dimension $n = 7$ to generate the mass of the…
We discuss neutrino masses and mixing in the framework of a supersymmetric model with an $U(1)_{R}$ symmetry, consisting of a single right handed neutrino superfield with an appropriate R charge. The lepton number ($L$) of the standard…
We discuss the necessity of a right-handed Weyl neutrino due to the vector-like phenomenon of the regularized Standard Model. It is shown that this right-handed neutrino is decoupled from low energies as a free particle, and Dirac neutrino…
We suggest a simple model, based on the type-I seesaw mechanism, for the lepton mass matrices. The model hinges on an Abelian symmetry which leads to mass matrices with some vanishing matrix elements. The model predicts one massless…
We take up the point of view that Yukawa couplings can be either 0 or 1, and the mass patterns of fermions are generated purely from the structure of the Yukawa matrices. We utilize such neutrino as well as charged leptonic textures which…
We develop a model of ours fitting the quark and lepton masses and mixing angles by removing from the model a Higgs field previously introduced to organise a large atmospheric mixing angle for neutrino oscillations. Due to the off-diagonal…
We study a model for the mass matrices of the leptons. We are ablte to relate the mass eigenvalues of the charged leptons and of the neutrinos to the mxiing angles and can predict the masses of the neutrinos. We find a normal hierarchy -the…
In this work, we have modified a scenario, originally proposed by Grimus and Lavoura, in order to obtain maximal values for atmospheric mixing angle and CP violating Dirac phase of the lepton sector. To achieve this, we have employed CP and…
Restrictions on the neutrino masses and lepton mixing are reviewed. Solar, atmospheric and relic neutrinos give the indications of existence of nonzero neutrino masses and mixing. The data pick up two regions of mixing angles which are or…

The Neutrino Option is a scenario where the Higgs mass is generated at the same time as neutrino masses in the type-I seesaw model. This framework provides a dynamical origin for the scalar potential of the Standard Model and suggests a new…
We consider a Majorana neutrino mass matrix $\mathcal{M}_\nu$ with $(\mathcal{M}_\nu)_{\mu\mu} = (\mathcal{M}_\nu)_{\tau\tau} = 0$, in the basis where the charged-lepton mass matrix is diagonal. We show that this pattern for the lepton mass…
We study a supersymmetric E6 grand unified model in which the SU(5) 5^* components are twisted in the third generation 27. Supplementing the adjoint Higgs field to a model analyzed previously, we calculate the mass matrices for the up and…
