After summarizing neutrino oscillation results I discuss high and low-scale seesaw mechanisms, with or without supersymmetry, as well as recent attempts to understand the pattern of neutrino mixing from flavor symmetries. I also mention the…
The supersymmetric sector of minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) possesses a U(1) R-symmetry which contains Z_2 matter parity. Non-zero neutrino masses, consistent with a 'redefined' R-symmetry, are possible through the see-saw…
Conventionally, neutrino masses in a supersymmetric theory arise from non-renormalizable lepton-number (L)-violating operators in the superpotential. The alternative possibility of having such operators in the Kahler potential as the…
Radiative symmetry breaking is studied in a superstring-inspired supersymmetric model which is extended with a low energy extra $U(1)$ symmetry. In this model the $\mu$-problem is radiatively solved in an automatic way. The right-handed…
We review supersymmetric models where R-parity is broken either explicitly or spontaneously. The simplest unified extension of the MSSM with explicit bilinear R--Parity violation provides a predictive scheme for neutrino masses and mixings…
We examine in detail the neutrino masses and mixing patterns in an extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model with three gauge-singlet neutrinos and R-parity violation. The Majorana masses for the gauge-singlet neutrinos as well…
We propose a new scenario in a class of superstring derived standard--like models that explains the suppression of the left--handed neutrino masses. Due to nonrenormalizable terms and the breaking of the $U(1)_{Z^\prime}$ symmetry a…
R-parity violation in the supersymmetric standard model could be the origin of neutrino masses and mixing accounting for the atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillations. More interestingly, this hypothesis may be tested in future colliders…
We consider an extension of the supersymmetric standard model which includes singlet Higgs superfield representations (in three generations) to generate neutrino masses via the see-saw mechanism. The resulting theory may then exhibit…
We propose a supersymmetric extra U(1) model, which can generate small neutrino masses and necessary $\mu$ terms, simultaneously. Fields including quarks and leptons are embedded in three ${\bf 27}$s of $E_6$ in a different way among…
We study the origin of neutrino mass from $SO(10)$ arising from $M$ Theory compactified on a $G_2$-manifold. This is linked to the problem of the breaking of the extra $U(1)$ gauge group, in the $SU(5)\times U(1)$ subgroup of $SO(10)$,…
A four-neutrino spectrum with a sterile neutrino without significant involvement in the atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillation experiments has been recently advocated as the correct picture to explain all existing experimental data. We…
Majoron models provide neutrino masses via the spontaneous breaking of a global $U(1)$ symmetry. However, it may be argued that all global symmetries will be explicitly violated by gravitational effects. We show that it is possible to…
In this paper, it is shown that $N$naturalness scenarios share the intrinsic mechanism to suppress neutrino masses with other infrared neutrino mass models. In such models like extra-dimensional theories or many species theories, the large…
Renormalizable lepton number violating interactions that break R-parity can induce a Majorana mass for neutrinos. Based on this, we show that it is possible to obtain a phenomenologically viable neutrino mass matrix that can accommodate…
We present a predictive framework for neutrino mass generation based on the spontaneous breaking of a leptonic $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ symmetry within a supersymmetric setting. The breaking of the global symmetry gives rise to a Majoron-like…
We consider the explanation of both data of the atmospheric neutrino and the solar neutrino by the neutrino mass matrix derived from the mixing of neutrinos and gauginos in the extended MSSM with an extra U(1) gauge symmetry. This scenario…
We propose a simple mechanism for solving the $\mu$ problem in the context of minimal low--energy supergravity models. This is based on the appearance of non--renormalizable couplings in the superpotential. In particular, if $H_1H_2$ is an…
A simple renormalizable U(1) gauge model is constructed to explain the smallness of the active neutrino masses and provide the stable cold dark matter candidate simultaneously. The local U(1) symmetry is assumed to be spontaneously broken…
We demonstrate that Dirac neutrino masses in the experimentally preferred range are generated within supersymmetric gauge extensions of the Standard Model with a generalized supersymmetry breaking sector. If the usual superpotential Yukawa…
