Building an organized Yukawa structure of quarks and leptons is an essential mission to understand fermion mass hierarchy and flavor mixing in particle physics. Inspired by the similarity of CKM and PMNS mixings, a common mass pattern for…

Recently, a curious neutrino mass matrix has been proposed: it is related to up-quark masses, and it can excellently give a nearly tribimaxial mixing. It is pointed out that, in order to obtain such successful results, three…

The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics fails to explain the observed hierarchy in fermion masses or the origin of fermion-flavor structure. We construct a model to explain these observations in the quark sector. We introduce a spectrum…

We study Froggatt-Nielsen (FN) like flavor models with modular symmetry. The FN mechanism is a convincing solution to the flavor puzzle in quark sector. The FN mechanism requires an extra $U(1)$ gauge symmetry which is broken at high…

In view of the quark mass hierarchy and in the assumption of the up-down parallelism, we derive two phenomenologically-favored patterns of Hermitian quark mass matrices from the quark flavor mixing matrix. We compare one of them with two…

We perform a systematic study of dihedral groups used as flavor symmetry. The key feature here is the fact that we do not allow the dihedral groups to be broken in an arbitrary way, but in all cases some (non-trivial) subgroup has to be…

A new mechanism for breaking an internal symmetry spontaneously is discussed, which is intermediate between the Nambu-Goldstone and Wigner modes of symmetry breaking. Here the quark-antiquark sea takes the role of the vacuum of the…

With a substantial amount of simulations, we have explored the system across a wide range of lattice scales. We have located a lattice artifact, first order bulk transition, have studied its properties, and found that the flavor-singlet…

We assume that all quark and lepton mass matrices have upper triangular form. Using all available experimental data on quark and lepton masses and mixing angles we make a fit in which we determine mass matrices elements. There are too many…

We incorporate the idea of natural mass matrices into the construction of phenomenologically viable quark mass matrix patterns. The general texture pattern for natural Hermitian mass matrices is obtained and several applications of this…

We study quark mass matrices in the Randall-Sundrum (RS) model with bulk symmetry $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)_{B-L}$. The Yukawa couplings are assumed to be within an order of magnitude of each other, and perturbative. We find that…

From mass textures point of view, we present a comparative study of the $\mathbf{S}_{3}$ flavor symmetry in the left-right symmetry model (LRSM) and the baryon minus lepton model (BLM) taking into account their predictions on the CKM mixing…

Discrete flavor symmetry is explored for an intrinsic property of mass matrix forms of quarks and leptons. In this paper we investigate the S3 permutation symmetry and derive the general forms of mass matrices in various types of S3…

Phenomenological implications of neutrino oscillations implied by recent experimental data on pattern of neutrino mass matrix are disscussed. It is shown that it is possible to have a neutrino mass matrix which shows approximate flavor…

We discuss whether quark, charged lepton and neutrino masses and mixing angles may be related by an extended flavour and family symmetry group. We show that current measurements of all fermion masses and mixing angles are consistent with a…

In an attempt to understand the observed patterns of lepton and quark masses, models invoking a flavor symmetry $G_f$, under which the Standard Model generations are charged, have been proposed. One particularly successful symmetry, U(2),…

By considering a flavour expansion about the SU(3)-flavour symmetric point, we investigate how flavour-blindness constrains octet baryon matrix elements after SU(3) is broken by the mass difference between quarks. Similarly to hadron masses…

We establish the existence of one-loop finite relations between the Cabibbo angle and the quark mass ratios, in the Standard Model with one Higgs doublet and two quark generations. Assuming a simple quark-lepton universality, we use the…

Grand unified theories with fermions transforming as irreducible representations of a discrete nonabelian flavor symmetry can lead to realistic fermion masses, without requiring very small fundamental parameters. We construct a specific…

We investigate the flavour structure of generic extensions of the SM where quark and lepton mass hierarchies and the suppression of flavour-changing transitions originate only by the normalization constants of the fermion kinetic terms. We…
