Texture of one equality in neutrino mass matrix
We carry out a phenomenological and analytical study of the texture structures for the Majorana neutrino mass matrix characterized by one single equality between two independent matrix elements, with vanishing non-physical phases whose role in the definition we clarify. We find that fourteen texture...

We carry out a phenomenological and analytical study of the texture structures for the Majorana neutrino mass matrix characterized by one single equality between two independent matrix elements, with vanishing non-physical phases whose role in the definition we clarify. We find that fourteen textures are viable in both types of hierarchy, whereas the remaining fifteenth one is viable only in normal hierarchy. We also present symmetry realizations for some patterns by using Abelian flavor symmetries within type-I, type-II and mixed type-(I+II) seesaw scenarios. |
