We present an overview of recent progress in the phenomenological study of neutrino masses, lepton flavor mixing and CP violation. We concentrate on the model-independent properties of massive neutrinos, both in vacuum and in matter.…
The latest experimental progress have established three kinds of neutrino oscillations with three mixing angles measured to rather high precision. There is still one parameter, i.e., the CP violating phase, missing in the neutrino mixing…
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…
A four-parameter Majorana neutrino mass matrix is proposed, which is exactly diagonalizable with two mixing angles, one of which is pi/4 and the other large but less than pi/4. The form of this mass matrix allows seven realizations of the…
We diagonalize Majorana neutrino mass matrix with the help of PMNS matrix and obtain analytical relations between the mass matrix elements and mixing parameters, viz., three mixing angles- $\theta_{12}, \theta_{23}, \theta_{13}$ and Dirac…
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…
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…
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…
We present a systematic study of 400 combinations of the charged lepton and neutrino mass matrices with six vanishing entries or texture zeros. Only 24 of them, which can be classified into a few distinct categories, are found to be…
The generic predictions of inverse Majorana neutrino mass matrix, $M_{\nu}^{-1}$ with texture two zeros, in the basis where charged lepton mass matrix is diagonal, have been obtained for neutrino masses and mixings, especially,…
In the minimal seesaw model, we derive required constraints on Dirac neutrino masses inducing maximal CP violation in neutrino oscillations. If the maximal atmospheric neutrino mixing is further assumed, Dirac neutrino masses are uniquely…
In the present paper, we have studied that the implication of a large value of the effective Majorana neutrino mass in case of neutrino mass matrices having either two equal elements and one zero element (popularly known as hybrid texture)…
If the massive neutrinos are the Majorana particles, how to pin down the Majorana CP-violating phases will eventually become an unavoidable question relevant to the future neutrino experiments. We argue that a study of neutrino-antineutrino…
The Majorana neutrino mass textures with a texture zero and a vanishing cofactor are reconsidered in the light of current experimental results. A numerical and systematic analysis is carried out for all viable patterns. In particular, we…
General Majorana neutrino mass matrix is complex symmetric and for three generations of neutrinos it contains 12 real parameters. We diagonalize this general neutrino mass matrix and express the three neutrino masses, three mixing angles,…
In this work we carry out a systematic texture study of the neutrino mass matrix with the ansatzes - (i) one vanishing minor and (ii) the zero sum of the mass eigenvalues with the CP phases (henceforth vanishing trace). There are six…
We present neutrino mass matrices which predict the atmospheric neutrino mixing to be almost maximal, $\sin^2 2\theta_{atm}>0.999$, as well as the large solar neutrino mixing, $8/9>\sin^2 2\theta_{sol}>0.87$, and the large CP violation (the…
The two Majorana cp-violating phases can not be determined by experiments on neutrino oscillations. It is difficult even not possible almost to measure two Majorana cp-violating phases since they are only sensitive to…
Phenomenological bounds on the neutrino mixing matrix U are used to determine numerically the allowed range of real elements (CP conserving case) for the symmetric neutrino mass matrix Mn (Majorana case). For this purpose an adaptive Monte…
