We propose a predictive model based on the $SU(3)_{C}\otimes SU(3)_{L}\otimes U(1)_{X}$ gauge group supplemented by the $A_{4}\otimes Z_{3}\otimes Z_{4}\otimes Z_{6}\otimes Z_{16}$ discrete group, which successfully describes the SM fermion…
In view of the fact that the data on neutrino mixing are still compatible with a situation where Bimaximal mixing is valid in first approximation and it is then corrected by terms of order of the Cabibbo angle, arising from the…
We consider a model for quark and lepton masses and mixings based on S4 flavor symmetry. The model contains six Higgs doublets where three of them give mass to the leptons and the other three gives mass to the quarks. Charged fermion and…
We propose a new mechanism for leptogenesis, which is naturally realized in some models with a flavor symmetry based on the discrete group A_4, where the symmetry breaking parameter also controls the Majorana masses for the heavy right…
An extension of the Standard Model (SM) based on the non-Abelian discrete group $\Delta(27)$ is considered. The $\Delta(27)$ flavour symmetry is spontaneously broken only by gauge singlet scalar fields, therefore our model is free from any…
We construct two viable extensions of the SM with a heavy vector in the fundamental $SU\left( 2\right) _{L}$ representation and nine SM singlet scalar fields, consistent with the current SM fermion mass spectrum and fermionic mixing…
We study an extension of the standard model based on the flavor symmetry A4 only. Neutrino Majorana mass terms arise from dimension five operator and charged lepton masses from renormalizable Yukawa couplings. We introduce three Higgs…
In order to explain the non-hierarchical neutrino mixing angles and the absence of lepton flavor violating processes in the context of warped extra dimensions one needs to introduce bulk flavor symmetries. We present a simple model of…
We report a recent study on lepton masses within a beyond standard model with a SU(3) family symmetry model. In this scenario ordinary heavy fermions, top and bottom quarks and tau lepton become massive at tree level from Dirac See-saw…
We propose a supersymmetric SU(5)xSU(5) model, where the quarks and leptons live in a U(1) product group theory space that is compactified on the real projective plane RP^2. The fermion generations are placed on different points in the…
We argue that the A_4 symmetry as required by three flavors of fermions may well-embed in the SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_X gauge model. The new neutral fermion singlets as introduced in a canonical seesaw mechanism can be combined with the…
To explain quark and lepton masses and mixing angles, one has to extend the standard model, and the usual practice is to put the quarks and leptons into irreducible representations of discrete groups. We argue that discrete flavor…
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…
The flavor structure of quarks and leptons is not yet fully understood, but it hints a more fundamental theory of non-universal generations. We therefore propose a simple extension of the Standard Model by flipping (i.e., enlarging) the…
After some general remarks about SU_L(4) electroweak unification, the model is extended to SU_L(4)xU_X(1) to accomodate fractionally charged quarks. The unification scale is expected to be in TeV region. A right-handed Majorana neutrino…
We show that solutions for the masses and mixings of the quarks and leptons based on a $U(1)\times Z_2$ horizontal symmetry are possible. The seesaw mechanism is shown to work consistently in the presence of the discrete symmetry. The…
The quark and charged lepton masses and the angles and phase of the CKM mixing matrix are nicely reproduced in a model which assumes SU(3)xSU(3) flavour symmetry broken by the v.e.v.'s of fields in its bi-fundamental representation. The…
Heavy singlet neutrinos admit Majorana masses which are not possible for the Standard Model particles. This suggest new possibilities for generating the masses and mixing angles of light neutrinos. We present a model of neutrino physics…
We propose a unified flavor model with the Standard Model fields on two 3-branes within an extra-dimensional setup, incorporating $\Gamma_N\times U(1)_X$ symmetry with a modulus and scalar field responsible for symmetry breaking. When…
In this paper, we investigate lepton mass spectra, flavor mixing and CP violation with a modular $S^{}_4$ symmetry under the assumption that neutrinos are Dirac fermions. We find that the Majorana mass term can be forbidden by adjusting the…
