The present work is inspired to execute the $A_4$ modular symmetry in linear seesaw framework by limiting the use of multiple flavon fields. Linear seesaw is acknowledged by extending the Standard Model particle spectrum with six heavy fermions and a singlet scalar. The non-trivial transformation of Yukawa coupling under the $A_4$ modular symmetry helps to explore the neutrino phenomenology with a specific flavor structure of the mass matrix. We discuss the neutrino mixing and obtain the reactor mixing angle and CP violating phase compatible with the observed $3sigma$ region of current oscillation data. Apart, we also collectively investigate the nonzero CP asymmetry from the decay of lightest heavy fermions to explain the preferred phenomena of baryogenesis through leptogenesis

We discuss an inverse seesaw model based on right-handed fermion specific $U(1)$ gauge symmetry and $A_4$-modular symmetry. These symmetries forbid unnecessary terms and restrict structures of Yukawa interactions which are relevant to inverse seesaw mechanism. Then we can obtain some predictions in neutrino sector such as Dirac-CP phase and sum of neutrino mass, which are shown by our numerical analysis. Besides the relation among masses of heavy pseudo-Dirac neutrino can be obtained since it is also restricted by the modular symmetry. We also discuss implications to lepton flavor violation and collider physics in our model.
We discuss type-II seesaw models adopting modular $A_4$ symmetry in supersymmetric framework. In our approach, the models are classified by the assignment of $A_4$ representations and modular weights for leptons and triplet Higgs fields. Then neutrino mass matrix is characterized by modulus $tau$ and two free parameters. Carrying out numerical analysis, we find allowed parameter sets which can fit the neutrino oscillation data. For the allowed parameter sets, we obtain the predictions in neutrino sector such as CP violating phases and the lightest neutrino mass. Finally we also show the predictions for the branching ratios of doubly charged scalar boson focusing on the case where the doubly charged scalar boson dominantly decays into charged leptons.
We study the phenomenological implications of the modular symmetry $Gamma(3) simeq A_4$ of lepton flavors facing recent experimental data of neutrino oscillations. The mass matrices of neutrinos and charged leptons are essentially given by fixing the expectation value of modulus $tau$, which is the only source of modular invariance breaking. We introduce no flavons in contrast with the conventional flavor models with $A_4$ symmetry. We classify our neutrino models along with the type I seesaw model, the Weinberg operator model and the Dirac neutrino model. In the normal hierarchy of neutrino masses, the seesaw model is available by taking account of recent experimental data of neutrino oscillations and the cosmological bound of sum of neutrino masses. The predicted $sin^2theta_{23}$ is restricted to be larger than $0.54$ and $delta_{CP}=pm (50^{circ}mbox{--}180^{circ})$. Since the correlation of $sin^2theta_{23}$ and $delta_{CP}$ is sharp, the prediction is testable in the future. It is remarkable that the effective mass $m_{ee}$ of the neutrinoless double beta decay is around $22$,meV while the sum of neutrino masses is predicted to be $145$,meV. On the other hand, for the inverted hierarchy of neutrino masses, only the Dirac neutrino model is consistent with the experimental data.
A new idea for neutrino mass was proposed recently, where its smallness is not due to the seesaw mechanism, i.e. not inversely proportional to some large mass scale. It comes from a one-loop mechanism with dark matter in the loop consisting of singlet Majorana fermions $N_i$ with masses of order 10 keV and neutrino masses are scaled down from them by factors of about $10^{-5}$. We discuss how this model may be implemented with the non-Abelian discrete symmetry $A_4$ for neutrino mixing, and consider the phenomenology of $N_i$ as well as the extra scalar doublet $(eta^+,eta^0)$.
We study the consequences of the $Z_2$-symmetry behind the $mu$--$tau$ universality in neutrino mass matrix. We then implement this symmetry in the type-I seesaw mechanism and show how it can accommodate all sorts of lepton mass hierarchies and generate enough lepton asymmetry to interpret the observed baryon asymmetry in the universe. We also show how a specific form of a high-scale perturbation is kept when translated via the seesaw into the low scale domain, where it can accommodate the neutrino mixing data. We finally present a realization of the high scale perturbed texture through addition of matter and extra exact symmetries.
