Possible maximal mixing seen in the oscillations of the atmospheric neutrinos has led to postulate of a $\mu$-$\tau$ symmetry which interchanges $\nu_\mu$ and $\nu_\tau$. We argue that such symmetry need not be special to neutrinos but can…
The observed hierarchy of fermion masses and mixings may be generated by renormalization group flow if the Standard Model is coupled to a near-conformal sector at high energies. If the conformal sector is supersymmetric, these effects are…
We propose a new model which can naturally explain origins of fermion generations, quark mass hierarchy, and Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix simultaneously from geometry of an extra dimension. We take the extra dimension to be an interval…
The realistic free fermionic models have had remarkable success in providing plausible explanations for various properties of the Standard Model which include the natural appearance of three generations, the explanation of the heavy top…
We present an account of the early developments that led to the present form of the flipped $SU(5)$ string model. We focus on the method used to decide on this particular string model, as well as the basic steps followed in constructing…
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…
We first obtain the most general and compact parametrization of the unitary transformation diagonalizing any 3 by 3 hermitian matrix H, as a function of its elements and eigenvalues. We then study a special class of fermion mass matrices,…
We propose a supersymmetric composite model with three generations in which supersymmetry and electroweak symmetry are broken dynamically, and masses of quarks and leptons are generated without introducing any mass scales by hand. All the…
The aim of superstring phenomenology is to develop the tools and methodology needed to confront string theory with experimental data. The first mandatory task is to find string solutions which reproduce the observable data. The subsequent…
In the presence of independent generations of leptons, I show that the same type of ambiguity in the mass spectrum arises as was discussed in ref.[1] for neutral kaons. It results from the freedom to add to their Majorana mass matrix,…
We present some general remarks on supersymmetric extensions of fermion-scalar and three-fermion preonic models with an assumption of supersymmetry is realized at preonic level. The motivation and the requirement of this assumption are…
Recent measurements of the lepton mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ by the Daya Bay and RENO reactor experiments are consistent with the relationship $\theta_{13}\approx \theta_C/\sqrt{2}$ where $ \theta_C$ is the Cabibbo angle. We propose…
The present observations of Cabbibo angle and solar mixing angle satisfy the empirical relation called Quark-Lepton Complementarity(QLC), namely $\theta_{12}^l\sim \pi/4-\theta_C$. It suggests the existence of correlation between quarks and…
We present a modification of our previous family replicated gauge group model, which now generates the Large Mixing Angle MSW solution rather than the experimentally disfavoured Small Mixing Angle MSW solution to the solar neutrino…
A fourth generation of Standard Model (SM) fermions is usually considered unlikely due to constraints from direct searches, electroweak precision measurements, and perturbative unitarity. We show that fermion mass textures consistent with…
The immensity of the string landscape and the difficulty of identifying solutions that match the observed features of particle physics have raised serious questions about the predictive power of string theory. Modern methods of optimisation…
We survey some of the recent promising developments in the search for the theory behind neutrino mass and tri-bimaximal mixing, and indeed all fermion masses and mixing. We focus in particular on models with discrete family symmetry and…
Heralded by the initial success in speech recognition and image classification, learning-based approaches with neural networks, commonly referred to as deep learning, have spread across various fields. A primitive form of a neural network…
It has been recently claimed that the symmetry group S4 yields to the Tri-bimaximal neutrino mixing in a "natural" way from the group theory point of view. Approving of this feature as an indication, we build a supersymmetric model of…
The problem of a calculation of parameters of the Standard Model is considered in the framework of the compensation approach. Conditions for a spontaneous generation of effective interactions of fundamental fields are shown to lead to sets…
