Lepton seesaw model in a modular $A_4$ symmetry
Abstract
We propose a lepton seesaw model to get the same mass-origin of charged-leptons and neutrinos introducing a modular 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 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 with several good predictions.
