A parametrisation of the degenerate neutrino mass matrix obeying $mu -tau$ symmetry, is introduced for detailed numerical analysis. As a continuation of our earlier work on normal and inverted hierarchical models, the present parametrisation for degenerate models has the ability to lower the solar mixing angle below the tri-bimaximal value $tan^{2}theta_{12}=0.5$, while maintaining the condition of maximal atmospheric mixing angle and zero reactor angle. The combined data on the mass-squared differences derived from various oscillation experiments, and also from the bounds on absolute neutrino masses in $0 ubetabeta$ decay and cosmology, gives certain constraints on the validity of the degenerate models.

Quasi-degenerate neutrino mass models (QDN) which can explain the current data on neutrino masses and mixings,are studied. In the first part, we study the effect of CP-phases on QDN mass matrix obeying $mu-tau$ symmetry in normal hierarchical (QD-NH) and inverted hierarchical (QD-IH) patterns.The numerical predictions are consistent with observed data on solar mixing angle, absolute neutrino mass parameter consistent with neutrinoless double beta decay mass parameter and sum of three absolute neutrino masses from cosmological bound.The neutrino mass matrix is parameterized using only two unknown parameters. The second part deals with the estimation of observed baryon asymmetry of the universe. The prediction is nearly consistent with observation with flavoured thermal leptogenesis scenario. QD-NH model appears to be more favourable than those of QD-IH models.The present analysis shows that the three absolute neutrino masses may exhibit quasi-degenerate pattern in nature. They are far from discrimination at the moment.
In this short review, we see some typical models in which light neutrino masses are generated at the loop level. These models involve new Higgs bosons whose Yukawa interactions with leptons are constrained by the neutrino oscillation data. Predictions about flavor structures of $ell to overline{ell}_1 ell_2 ell_3$ and leptonic decays of new Higgs bosons via the constrained Yukawa interactions are briefly summarized in order to utilize such Higgs as a probe of $ u$ physics.
We have studied the scenario of baryogenesis via leptogenesis in an $A_4$ flavor symmetric framework considering type I seesaw as the origin of neutrino mass. Because of the presence of the fifth generation right handed neutrino the model naturally generates non-zero reactor mixing angle. We have considered two vev alignments for the extra flavon $eta$ and studied the consequences in detail. As a whole the additional flavon along with the extra right handed neutrinos allow us to study thermal leptogenesis by the decay of the lightest right handed neutrino present in the model. We have computed the matter-antimatter asymmetry for both flavor dependent and flavor independent leptogenesis by considering a considerably wider range of right handed neutrino mass. Finally, we correlate the baryon asymmetry of the universe (BAU) with the model parameters and light neutrino masses.
We study finite quantum corrections for several well known neutrino mixing matrices and find that it is hard to account for the large value of theta_13 recently reported by T2K and MINOS. To nicely reproduce all experimentally favored neutrino mixing angles and masses, we propose a new neutrino mixing pattern. We also demonstrate a simple realization by slightly extending the standard model to illustrate the quantum corrections.
This is a short review about relations between new scalars and mechanisms to generate neutrino masses. We investigate leptohilic scalars whose Yukawa interactions are only with leptons. We discuss possibilities that measurements of their leptonic decays provide information on how neutrino masses are generated and on parameters in the neutrino mass matrix (e.g. the lightest neutrino mass).
