It is proposed that light neutrinos form a triplet in a global SU(3) flavor symmetry. Within this framework, a symmetry principle predicts sin^2 theta_{23}=0.5 and gives the so called inverted neutrino mass hierarchy, theta _{13}=0 and a…

We present a model based on an O(3) flavor symmetry and a minimal extension of the scalar sector to induce hierarchical breaking, O(3) -> O(2) -> SO(2) -> nothing. The model naturally accounts for all the known lepton parameters and yields…

A Zee-type neutrino mass matrix model with a badly broken horizontal symmetry SU(3)_H is investigated. By putting a simple ansatz on the symmetry breaking effects of SU(3)_H for transition matrix elements, it is demonstrated that the model…

We show how the nearly bi-maximal mixing scenario comes out naturally from gauged $SO(3)_{F}$ flavor symmetry via spontaneous symmetry breaking. An interesting relation between the neutrino mass-squared differences and the mixing angle,…

For a neutrino mass matrix whose texture has an approximate flavor symmetry and where one has near degenerate neutrino mass, it is shown that the tribimaximal values for atmospheric angle $\sin^{2}{\theta_{23}}=1/2$ and solar angle…

We develop a bottom-up approach to constructing a theory of fermion masses and mixing angles based on the gauge group $SU(3)\times G$ where SU(3) is a family symmetry and $G$ contains a unified group such as SO(10) or its Pati-Salam…

Flavour symmetries appropriate for describing a neutrino spectrum with degenerate solar pair and a third massive or massless neutrino are discussed. We demand that the required residual symmetries of the leptonic mass matrices be subgroups…

We present a new mechanism to explain naturally and through a common flavour symmetry the mildly hierarchical neutrino masses with large mixings and the hierarchical Yukawa matrices with small mixing angles. Although this mechanism is not…

We apply the permutation symmetry S_3 to both charged-lepton and neutrino mass matrices, and suggest a useful symmetry-breaking scheme, in which the flavor symmetry is explicitly broken down via S_3 -> Z_3 -> nothing in the charged-lepton…

Deviations from expectations have been claimed for solar, atmospheric and high energy prompt neutrinos from charm decay. This information, supplemented only by the existing very good upper limits for oscillations of the $\nu_{\mu}$ at…

We phenomenologically build a neutrino mass matrix obeying $\mu-\tau$ symmetry with only two parameters, Cabibbo angle $(\lambda)$ and a flavour twister parameter $(\eta)$. For vanishing $\eta$, the model assumes TBM mixing. When…

We speculate that the mass spectrum of three neutrinos might have a normal hierarchy as that of three charged leptons or that of three up-type (or down-type) quarks. In this spirit, we propose a novel parametrization of the $3\times 3$…

After some preliminary arguments suggesting that neutrino mixings with inverted mass pattern may be easier to understand within the framework of a local horizontal symmetry SU(2)_H acting on leptons, we construct a specific extension of the…

The gauge model with $SO(3)_{F}$ flavor symmetry and three Higgs triplets is studied. We show how the intriguing nearly degenerate neutrino mass and bi-maximal mixing scenario comes out naturally after spontaneous breaking of the symmetry.…

Based on the SO(3) gauge symmetry for three family leptons and general see-saw mechanism, we present a simple scheme that allows three nearly degenerate Majorana neutrino masses needed for hot dark matter. The vacuum structure of the…

The near maximal value for the atmospheric neutrino mixing angle together with the fact that the solar mixing angle satisfies the relation $\sin^2\theta_\odot\simeq {1/3}$ is the basis for the so called tri-bimaximal mixing (tbm) when…

We consider a supersymmetric model where the neutrino mass matrix arises from bilinear and trilinear R-parity violation, both restricted by a $Z_3$ flavor symmetry. Assuming flavor blind soft supersymmetry (SUSY) breaking conditions,…

We consider the flavor symmetry L_mu - L_tau for the neutrino mass matrix. The most general neutrino mass matrix conserving L_mu - L_tau predicts quasi-degenerate neutrino masses with one maximal and two zero mixing angles. The presence of…

Finite discrete subgroups of $U(3)$ as possible flavour symmetries $G_f$ for a massless neutrinos with predictive mixing angles are studied. This is done by assuming that a residual symmetry $S_\nu$ appropriate for describing a massless…

I mainly describe neutrino masses and oscillations in the gauge model with $SO(3)_{F}$ lepton flavor symmetry and with two Higgs triplets. It is shown how the maximal mixing between $\nu_{\mu}$ and $\nu_{\tau}$ neutrinos comes out naturally…
