We propose a new, minimal Majorana neutrino mass matrix texture and study its predictions within a partial tri-bimaximal (TBM) mixing scheme, where $\sin\theta_{12} = 1/\sqrt{3}$ and $\sin\theta_{23} = 1/\sqrt{2}$, with $\theta_{13}$ and…

Within the framework of inverse seesaw mechanism we investigate neutrino mass matrices invariant under cyclic symmetry ($Z_3$) with maximal zero texture (6 zero textures). We explore two different approaches to obtain the cyclic symmetry…

Quark-lepton symmetry has been shown to be inconsistent with baryogenesis via leptogenesis in natural schemes of the see-saw mechanism. Within the phenomenological approach of textures, we relax this strict symmetry and propose weaker…

We analyze neutrino mass matrices having one texture zero, assuming that the neutrino mixing matrix has either its first (TM$_1$) or second (TM$_2$) column identical to that of the tribimaximal mixing matrix. We found that all the six…

In the simple model of neutrino texture presented in this paper, the Majorana left-handed mass matrix is zero, the Majorana righthanded mass matrix - diagonal and degenerate, and the Dirac mass matrix has a hierarchical structure, deformed…

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)…

An effective texture is presented for six Majorana neutrinos, three active and three (conventional) sterile, based on a 6x6 mass matrix whose 3x3 Dirac component (i.e., active--sterile component) is conjectured to get a hierarchical fermion…

We show that a universal texture zero in the (1,1) position of all fermionic mass matrices, including heavy right-handed Majorana neutrinos driving a type-I see-saw mechanism, can lead to a viable spectrum of mass, mixing and CP violation…

We investigate the prospects for scenarios with vanishing determinant neutrino mass matrices and vanishing $\theta_{13}$ mixing angle. Normal and inverse mass hierarchies are considered separately. For normal hierarchy it is found that…

We analyse the parallel hybrid texture structures in the charged lepton and the neutrino sector. These parallel hybrid texture structures have physical implications as they cannot be obtained from arbitrary lepton mass matrices through weak…

We demonstrate that under the "symmetric zero texture" with minimal Majorana mass matrix, neutrino masses and mixing angles are expressed in terms of up-quark masses, $m_t,m_c,m_u$. This provides interesting relations among neutrino mixing…

Texture zeros in fermion mass matrices have been widely considered in tackling the Standard Model flavour puzzle. In this work, we perform a systematic analysis of texture zeros in lepton mass matrices in the framework of $\Gamma_{3}'\cong…
