We identify new room for CP violation in lepton flavor violating observables not bound by the electric dipole moment of leptons. By focusing on new physics in the muon-electron sector, we show that CP violation can make its first appearance…
Inspired by the recent hints of lepton flavor universality violation in $b\to s\ell\ell$ and $b\to c\ell\nu$ transitions, we study lepton flavor violating exclusive $\Lambda_b\to\Lambda\ell_1^+\ell_2^-$ ($\ell_1\neq \ell_2$) decay, which is…
Constraints on the whole spectrum of lepton flavor violating vertices are shown in the context of the standard two Higgs doublet model. The vertex involving the $e-\tau $ mixing is much more constrained than the others, and the decays…
I show that the CP-violating asymmetry in K^0 vs \bar{K}^0 \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0 decays differs from that in K_L \to \pi^+\pi^-, K_L \to \pi^0\pi^0 or the semileptonic K_L transitions, if there exists CPT violation in K^0-\bar{K}^0 mixing. A…
We propose a generalized $\mu-\tau$ reflection symmetry to constrain the lepton flavor mixing parameters. We obtain a new correlation between the atmospheric mixing angle $\theta_{23}$ and the "Dirac" CP violation phase $\delta_{\rm CP}$.…
We introduce a simple flavor symmetry breaking scheme, in which charged lepton masses have a strong hierarchy and neutrino masses are almost degenerate. It is possible to obtain a natural suppression of lepton flavor mixing between the 1st…
We investigate the lepton flavor violation decays, $\tau \to \mu\gamma$, $\tau \to e\gamma$ and $\mu \to e\gamma$, in the framwork of a squential fourth generation model with a heavy fourth neutrino, $\nu'$. Using the recent experimental…
If neutrino mass and mixing consistent with the neutrino oscillation data are the only source of lepton flavor violation (LFV)in nature, the other LFV decays like the radiative and semileptonic decays would be too small to be observed…
The complementarity between the quark and lepton mixing matrices is shown to provide robust predictions. We obtain these predictions by first showing that the matrix V_M, product of the quark (CKM) and lepton (PMNS) mixing matrices, may…
We calculate the possible CP violating asymmetries for LFV decays mu -> e gamma and tau -> mu gamma. Our predictions depend on the chosen new model independent contribution. The result of measurements of such asymmetries for these decays…
Behind the observed pattern of lepton flavor mixing is a partial or approximate mu-tau flavor symmetry --- a milestone on our road to the true origin of neutrino masses and flavor structures. In this review article we first describe the…
Lepton flavor and CP violation in supersymmetric models are briefly reviewed. After a short motivation and an introduction to the phenomenology, model independent constraints on mass insertions, predictions of SUSY GUT models and rates for…
In the framework of canonical seesaw model, we present a simple but viable scenario to explicitly break an $S^{}_{3{\rm L}} \times S^{}_{3{\rm R}}$ flavor symmetry in the leptonic sector. It turns out that the leptonic flavor mixing matrix…
We show that a modification of the model with a low energy scalar leptoquark state carrying hypercharge $Y=7/6$ allows to accommodate both $R_K<1$ and $R_{K^\ast}<1$, through loop effects, consistent with recent observations made at LHCb.…
In leptonic flavour models with discrete flavour symmetries, couplings between flavons and leptons can result in special flavour structures after they gain vacuum expectation values. At the same time, they can also contribute to the other…
I follow a lesson learnt from Heisenberg's matrix Quantum Mechanics to study the property of lepton flavor mixing and CP violation. I show that the commutator of lepton mass matrices defined in vacuum keeps invariant under terrestrial…
Motivated by the prospects for an improved test of lepton universality in K -> l \nu decays by the NA62 experiment at CERN, we study predictions for the possible lepton non-universality in K -> l \nu decays in supersymmetric models.…
We explore a scenario of New Physics entering the description of $B\to K^{(\ast )} \mu \mu$ decay through couplings to the operators ${\cal O}_{9,10}^\prime$, satisfying $C_9^\prime = - C_{10}^\prime$. From the current data on ${\cal…
We propose a novel origin for the disparity between quark and lepton flavor mixing based on the refractive nature of neutrino masses. We postulate that the fundamental mixing in both the quark and lepton sectors is CKM-like, together with…
In the standard model, direct CP-violating asymmetries for $B^\pm \to \pi^\pm K$ are roughly 2% based on perturbative calculation. Rescattering effects might enhance it to at most (20-25)%. We show that lepton-number-violating couplings in…
