Abstract

We propose a lepton seesaw model to get the same mass-origin of charged-leptons and neutrinos introducing a modular A4A_4 symmetry. In this scenario, the mass matrix of charged-leptons is induced via seesaw-like mechanism while the mass matrix of neutrino is realized via an inverse seesaw mechanism with help of vector-like fermions and an isospin singlet and triplet scalar field with nonzero vacuum expectation values. In analyzing the model we concentrate on fixed points of modulus τ\tau that is favored by a flux compactification of Type IIB string theory. We search for allowed region at nearby these fixed points and find good solutions at nearby τ=ω\tau=\omega with several good predictions.
