In the context of the 2HDM, and assuming that neutrinos acquire masses via the Weinberg operator, we perform a systematic analysis to determine the minimal quark and lepton flavour patterns, compatible with masses, mixing and CP violation…

We analyze the structure of quark and lepton mass matrices under the hypothesis that they are determined from a minimum principle applied to a generic potential invariant under the $\left[SU(3)\right]^5\otimes \mathcal O(3)$ flavor…

In view of the observed strong hierarchy of the quark and lepton masses and of the flavor mixing angles, it is argued that the description of flavor mixing must take this into account. One particularly interesting way to describe the flavor…

We argue that there exists simple relation between the quark and lepton mixings which supports the idea of grand unification and probes the underlying robust bi-maximal fermion mixing structure of still unknown flavor physics. In this…

We rewrite the Yukawa interactions of the standard model in terms of flavour-dependent vacuum structure to address the family mass hierarchy and CP violation in both the quark sector and lepton sector. It is realized for the first time that…

We present empirical relations that connect the dimensionless ratios of fermion masses for the charged lepton, up-type quark and down-type quark sectors. Explaining these relations from first principles imposes strong constraints on the…

We discuss first the flavor mixing of the quarks, using the texture zero mass matrices. Then we study a similar model for the mass matrices of the leptons. We are able to relate the mass eigenvalues of the charged leptons and of the…

We point out that there is a unique parametrization of quark flavor mixing in which every angle is close to the Cabibbo angle \theta_C \simeq 13^\circ with the CP-violating phase \phi_q around 1^\circ, implying that they might all be…

We give an overview of recent progress in the study of fermion mass and flavor mixing phenomena. The hints exhibited by the quark and lepton mass spectra towards possible underlying flavor symmetries, from which realistic models of mass…

We explain the imbalance of the flavor mixing angles between the quark and the lepton sectors in the context of the SU(5) GUT with the see-saw mechanism. The quark masses and the CKM matrix elements are obtained by using, respectively, the…

Quantum entanglement provides a quantitative measure of nonclassical correlations and plays a central role in quantum information theory. Identifying and quantifying the mechanisms by which fundamental interactions generate or suppress…

Neutrino oscillations can be efficiently simulated on a quantum computer using the Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata (PMNS) theory in close analogy to the physical processes realized in experiments. We simulate three-flavor neutrino…

We study the effects of tree-level flavor changing neutral current and its present status with Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix. Especially, we remark the effects of flavor changing neutral current on the unitary triangle of…

We construct a model for the quark mass and flavor mixing matrices, based on the hypothesis that the flavor weak eigenstates in the three families are distinguished by a spontaneously broken discrete $Z_6$ chiral symmetry. In a leading…

We point out that the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark mixing matrix $V_{\rm CKM}$ and the Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata (MNS) lepton mixing matrix $V_{\rm MNS}$ can naturally be correlated in a class of seesaw models with grand unification,…

Flavour mixing and CP violation as measured in weak decays and mixing of neutral mesons are a fundamental tool to test the Standard Model (SM) and to search for new physics. New analyses performed at the LHC experiment open an unprecedented…

Motivated by the recent determination of the top quark mass by the CDF collaboration, $\mt =174 \pm 10 ^{+13}_{-12}$ GeV, we review and update the constraints on the parameters of the quark flavour mixing matrix $V_{CKM}$ in the standard…

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…

Vector-like quarks have been of interest for a plethora of experimentally motivated reasons and have come under increased investigation recently due to their inclusion to the Standard Model (SM) appreciably improving global fits to several…

The phase equivalence of the theoretical quark mixing matrix ${\bf V}^{th}$ derived from the breaking of the flavour permutational symmetry and the phenomenological parametrizations ${\bf V}^{PDG}$ and ${\bf V}^{KM}$ is explicitly…
