The discrete non-Abelian symmetry $A_4$, valid at some high-energy scale, naturally leads to degenerate neutrino masses, without spoiling the hierarchy of charged-lepton masses. Realistic neutrino mass splittings and mixing angles (one of…
We propose two simple models for the quark mass matrices which may be implemented through an S3 x Z2 symmetry in a supersymmetric context. Each model has eight parameters and, therefore, makes two independent predictions for the quark…
It is known that a three Higgs doublet model (3HDM)symmetric under an exact $A_4$ symmetry is not compatible with nonzero quark masses and/or non-block-diagonal CKM matrix. We show that a 3HDM with softly broken $A_4$ terms in the scalar…
The spin-charge-family theory predicts before the electroweak break four - rather than the observed three - massless families of quarks and leptons. The 4 x 4 mass matrices of all the family members demonstrate in this theory the same…
We build a supersymmetric model of quark and lepton masses based on the discrete flavour symmetry group T', the double covering of A_4. In the lepton sector our model is practically indistinguishable from recent models based on A_4 and, in…
To a first approximation, the quark mixing matrix has $\theta^q_{13} = \theta^q_{23} = 0$, whereas the lepton mixing matrix has $\theta^l_{23} = \pi/4$. We show how this structure may be understood if the family symmetry is $Q_8$, the…
We combine $SU(5)$ Grand Unified Theories (GUTs) with $A_4$ modular symmetry and present a comprehensive analysis of the resulting quark and lepton mass matrices for all the simplest cases. Classifying the models according to the…
Recently, we have proposed a quark mass matrix model based on U(3)$\times$U(3)$'$ family symmetry, in which up- and down-quark mass matrices $M_u$ and $M_d$ are described only by complex parameters $a_u $ and $a_d $, respectively. When we…
We study the mass spectrum of the quark sector in an special type I-like model with gauge symmetry $SU(3)_c \otimes SU(3)_L \otimes U(1)_X$. By considering couplings with scalar triplets at large ($\sim TeV$) and small ($\sim GeV$) scales,…
In the spin-charge-family theory four massless families of quarks and leptons before the electroweak break are predicted. Mass matrices of all the family members demonstrate in this proposal the same symmetry, determined by the family…
We include the standard-model (SM) leptons in a recently proposed framework for the generation of quark mass ratios and Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) mixing angles from an SU(3) family gauge interaction. The set of SM-singlet scalar…
We present a model for quark masses and mixing, featuring geometrical CP violation through a \Delta(27) triplet. By employing a single U(1)_F or Z_N symmetry in addition to \Delta(27), we forbid all terms in the scalar potential that would…
Following the newly formulated notion of form invariance of the neutrino mass matrix, a complete model of leptons is constructed. It is based on a specific unitary 3 X 3 matrix U in family space, such that U^2 is the simple discrete…
We perform a systematical analysis of the $A_4$ modular models with generalized CP for the masses and flavor mixing of quarks and leptons, and the most general form of the quark and lepton mass matrices is given. The CP invariance requires…
We present simple effective theory of quark masses, mixing and CP violation with level $N=3$ ($A_4$) modular symmetry, which provides solution to the strong CP problem without the need for an axion. The vanishing of the strong CP-violating…
Using experimental results at the Z-pole and atomic parity violation, we perform a chi-squared fit at 95% CL to obtain family-dependent bounds to Z_2 mass and Z-Z' mixing angle in the framework of SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_X models. The…
The spin-charge-family theory predicts the existence of the fourth family to the observed three. The $4 \times 4$ mass matrices --- determined by the nonzero vacuum expectation values of the two triplet scalars, the gauge fields of the two…
We propose a supersymmetric (SUSY) SU(5) Grand Unified Theory (GUT) including a single right-handed neutrino singlet and an adjoint matter representation below the GUT scale and extend this model to include an A4 family symmetry and a…
A radiative model of quark and lepton masses utilizing the binary tetrahedral ($T^{\prime}$) flavor symmetry, or horizontal symmetry, is proposed which produces the first two generation of quark masses through their interactions with…
A model with three scalar doublets can be conveniently accommodated within an A4 symmetric framework. The A4 symmetry permits only a restricted form for the scalar potential. We show that for the global minima of this potential alignment…
