In [1] it has been shown that the Cabibbo angle theta_C might arise from a dihedral flavor symmetry which is broken to different (directions of) subgroups in the up and the down quark sector. This leads to a prediction of theta_C in terms…

It has been shown that the Cabibbo angle can be predicted in terms of group theoretical quantities, if the dihedral group D14 plays the role of a flavor symmetry. We extend a supersymmetric D14 model to the lepton sector and show that…

Arguments coming from Quantum Field Theory are supplemented with a 1-loop perturbative calculation to settle the non-unitarity of mixing matrices linking renormalized mass eigenstates to bare flavor states for non-degenerate coupled…

We construct a supersymmetric model for leptons and quarks with the flavor symmetry Delta(384) and CP. The peculiar features of lepton and quark mixing are accomplished by the stepwise breaking of the flavor and CP symmetry. The correct…

We construct a supersymmetric model based on $T'\otimes Z_3\otimes Z_9$ flavor symmetry. At the leading order, the charged lepton mass matrix is not diagonal, $T'$ is broken completely, and the hierarchy in the charged lepton masses is…

We present a supersymmetric see-saw $S_4$ model giving rise to the most general neutrino mass matrix compatible with Tri-Bimaximal mixing. We adopt the $S_4\times Z_5$ flavour symmetry, broken by suitable vacuum expectation values of a…

We present a supersymmetric model of quark and lepton based on $S_4\times Z_3\times Z_4$ flavor symmetry. The $S_4$ symmetry is broken down to Klein four and $Z_3$ subgroups in the neutrino and the charged lepton sectors respectively.…

Following the way proposed recently by Hernandez and Smirnov, we seek possible residual symmetries in the quark sector with a focus on the von Dyck groups. We begin with two extreme cases in which both $\theta_{13}$ and $\theta_{23}$ or…

We perform a systematical and analytical study of lepton mixing which can be derived from the subgroups of $SU(3)$ under the assumption that neutrinos are Dirac particles. We find that type D groups can predict lepton mixing patterns…

We re-examine the possibility that the solution to the supersymmetric flavor problem is related to small mixing angles in gaugino couplings induced by approximate horizontal Abelian symmetries. We prove that, for a large class of models,…

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…

We present a $D_4$ flavored extension of the SM which provides an intuitive reasoning for the masses and mixing patterns in the quark sector. In our model, the Cabibbo mixing angle stems purely from the scalar sector dynamics. In fact, the…

Flavor symmetry ($T^{'} \times Z_2$) where $T^{'}$ is the binary tetrahedral group predicts for neutrino mixing angles $\theta_{13} = \sqrt{2} (\frac{\pi}{4} - \theta_{23})$ and, with one phenomenological input, provides upper and lower…

Pursuing a bottom-up approach to explore which flavor symmetry could serve as an explanation of the observed fermion masses and mixings, we discuss an extension of the standard model (SM) where the flavor structure for both quarks and…

The recent analyses of the world neutrino data, including the T2K and MINOS results, point toward a statistically significant deviation of theta13 from zero. In this paper we present a SUSY SU(5) model based on the discrete S4 group which…

We construct a simple model of fermion masses based on a spontaneously broken S3 X Z3 flavour group. At the leading order, in the neutrino sector S3 is broken down to a \nu_\mu-\nu_\tau parity subgroup that enforces a maximal atmospheric…

We construct a supersymmeterized version of the model presented by Grimus and Lavoura (GL) in [1] which predicts theta_{23} maximal and theta_{13}=0 in the lepton sector. For this purpose, we extend the flavor group, which is D4 x…

We study the phenomenology of a unified supersymmetric theory with a flavor symmetry $\Delta(27)$. The model accommodates quark and lepton masses, mixing angles and CP phases. In this model, the Dirac and Majorana mass matrices have a…

The combination of precise determinations of $V_{us}$ and $V_{ud}$ hints towards a violation of the CKM first row unitarity at about $3\sigma$ level. Conversely, the recent measurement of the $W$-boson mass by the CDF Collaboration exhibits…

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…
