Assuming that the neutrino mass matrix is diagonalized by the TBM, we looked for the charged lepton mass matrix textures which render a lepton mixing matrix consistent with data. We were interested in the textures with the maximum number of…

Upper bounds on the CP asymmetry relevant for leptogenesis are reexamined and found weaker than in previous literature, both for hierarchical and for quasi-degenerate right-handed neutrinos. Successful leptogenesis implies the usual lower…
The Standard Model does not explain the hierarchy problem. Before the discovery of nonzero lepton mixing angle {\theta}13 high hopes in explanation of the shape of the lepton mixing matrix were combined with non abelian symmetries.…
In this work we propose an extension to the Standard Model in which we consider the model 2HDM type-III plus massive neutrinos and the horizontal flavor symmetry $S_{3}$ $(\nu$2HDM$\otimes S_3)$. In the above framework and with the explicit…
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 consider low-energy tests of low-scale leptogenesis based on the type I seesaw scenario with three right-handed singlet neutrinos $\nu_{l R}$. In this scenario, successful leptogenesis is possible for quasi-degenerate in mass heavy…
We study thermal leptogenesis in classes of neutrino mass models based on the seesaw mechanism with three right-handed neutrinos and sequential right-handed neutrino dominance. The flavour-dependent Boltzmann equations are solved…
The latest results from atmospheric and accelerator neutrino experiments indicate that the normal neutrino mass ordering $m^{}_1 < m^{}_2 < m^{}_3$, a maximal leptonic CP-violating phase $\delta = 270^\circ$ and the second octant of…
A non-supersymmetric renormalizable $SO(10)$ model is investigated for its viability in explaining the observed fermion masses and mixing parameters along with the baryon asymmetry produced via thermal leptogenesis. The Yukawa sector of the…
One- and two-zero textures for the flavor neutrino mass matrix have been successful in explaining mixing in the neutrino sector. Conservatively, six cases of one-zero textures and seven cases of two-zero textures are compatible with…
The CP violation required in leptogenesis may have different origin, but in an effective theory they all are related to the rephasing invariant CP violating measure in the mixing matrix of the leptonic sector. We point out that the maximum…
We analyze the most general version of the supersymmetric minimal see-saw model with only two right-chiral neutrinos which are degenerate in masses at the scale of Grand Unification. We study the renormalization effects that give rise to…
