We have studied how observables of the neutrino mixing matrix can link up with the ones in the quark sector. The deviation from the bi-maximal flavor mixing is parameterized using a 3 x 3 unitary matrix. The neutrino mixings are…
Solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillations are consistent with a tribimaximal form of the mixing matrix $U$ of the lepton sector. Exact tribimaximal mixing leads to $\theta_{13}=0$. Recent results from the Daya Bay and RENO experiments…
Although the measurement of the reactor angle has killed tribimaximal lepton mixing, its descendants survive with charged lepton corrections, or in less constrained forms such as trimaximal mixing and/or mu-tau symmetry, each with…
We explore some ways of minimally modifying the neutrino mixing matrix from tribimaximal, characterized by introducing at most one mixing angle and a CP violating phase thus extending our earlier work. One minimal modification, motivated to…
Global fits to neutrino oscillation data are compatible with tri-bimaximal mixing pattern, which predicts $\theta_{23} = \frac{\pi}{4}, \theta_{12} = \sin^{-1} (\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}})$ and $\theta_{13} = 0$. We propose here to parametrize the…
We present a model of neutrino mixing based on the flavour group $\Delta(27)$ in order to account for the observation of a non-zero reactor mixing angle ($\theta_{13}$). The model provides a common flavour structure for the charged-lepton…
General lowest order perturbations to hermitian squared mass matrices of leptons are considered away from the tribimaximal (TBM) limit in which a weak flavor basis with mass diagonal charged leptons is chosen. The three measurable TBM…
The present article is an endeavor to look into some fruitful frameworks based on "Bi-maximal" neutrino mixing, from a model independent stand. The possibilities involving the correction or attenuation of the original BM mixing matrix,…
We study the CP violation in the deviation from the tri-bimaximal mixing (TBM) of neutrinos. We examine non-trivial relations among the mixing angles and the CP violating Dirac phase in the typical four cases of the deviation from the TBM.…
Trimaximal mixing is the mixing hypothesis with maximal symmetry. In trimaximal mixing there remains a still worrying conflict between the large values of $\Delta m^2$ preferred by the atmospheric fits (possibly supported by the early K2K…
The overall characteristics of the solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillations are approximately consistent with a tribimaximal form of the mixing matrix $U$ of the lepton sector. Exact tribimaximal mixing leads to $\theta_{13}=0$. However,…
We propose a scheme of lepton mixing in which the unitary matrix that diagonalizes the neutrino mass matrix is bimaximal and the deviation from bimaximal of the lepton mixing matrix is due to the unitary matrix that diagonalizes the…
We scrutinize corrections to tribimaximal (TBM), bimaximal (BM) and democratic (DC) mixing matrices for explaining recent global fit neutrino mixing data. These corrections are parameterized in terms of small orthogonal rotations (R) with…
Current experimental data on neutrino oscillations are consistent with the tri-bimaximal mixing. If future experimental data will determine a non-zero $V_{e3}$ and/or find CP violations in neutrino oscillations, there is the need to modify…
In the supersymmetric seesaw model of neutrino masses, augmented by the non-Abelian discrete tetrahedral symmetry A_4, a specific pattern of neutrino mixing is automatically generated if one of the three heavy singlet neutrino superfields…
We study the effects of breaking S3 symmetry in the neutrino mass matrix for the masses and mixing matrix of neutrinos. At zeroth order the model gives degenerate neutrino masses and accommodates tribimaximal mixing. We introduce…
We propose a generalized version of the Tri-Bi-Maximal (TBM) ansatz for lepton mixing, leading to non-zero reactor angle $\theta_{13}$ and CP violation. The latter is characterized by two CP phases. The Dirac phase affecting neutrino…
An attempt is made to explore the possibility for deviations of solar mixing angle ($\theta_{12}$) from tri-bimaximal mixings, without sacrificing the predictions of maximal atmospheric mixing angle ($\theta_{23}=\pi/4$) and zero reactor…
In light of the observation of a relatively large $\theta_{13}$, the ever popular Tri-Bimaximal (TBM) neutrino mixing which predicts a vanishing $\theta_{13}$ needs modifications. In this paper, we shall discuss the possibility of modifying…
The tetra-maximal neutrino mixing pattern predicts a relatively large reactor mixing angle theta_13 \approx 8.4^\circ, which is in good agreement with the latest best-fit value theta_13 = 9^\circ. However, its prediction for theta_12…
