A model independent analysis of the leptonic Dirac CP-violating phase ({delta}) is presented. The analysis uses the experimentally determined values of the mixing angles in the lepton mixing matrix in order to explore the allowed values for {delta} and possible general forms for the charged lepton mixing matrix. This is done under two general assumptions: 1) that the mixing matrix in the neutrino sector is the so-called tribimaximal matrix and hence the non zero value for {theta}13 arises due to the mixing matrix in the charged lepton sector and 2) the charged lepton mixing matrix is parametrized in terms of three angles and one phase. It is found that any value of {delta} is still consistent with the data and that, considering the assumptions above, regardless of the value for {delta}, the 1-3 mixing angle in the charged lepton sector is small but non zero and the 2-3 mixing angle can take values in only two possible small ranges around 0 and {pi}/2 respectively.

We consider the MSSM with see-saw mechanism of neutrino mass generation and soft SUSY breaking with flavour-universal boundary conditions at the GUT scale, in which the lepton flavour violating (LFV) decays muto e + gamma, tauto mu + gamma, etc.,are predicted with rates that can be within the reach of present and planned experiments. These predictions depend critically on the matrix of neutrino Yukawa couplings bf{Y_{ u}} which can be expressed in terms of the light and heavy right-handed (RH) neutrino masses, neutrino mixing matrix U_{PMNS}, and an orthogonal matrix bf{R}. We investigate the effects of Majorana CP-violation phases in U_{PMNS}, and of the RG running of light neutrino masses and mixing angles from M_Z to the RH Majorana neutrino mass scale M_R, on the predictions for the rates of LFV decays muto e + gamma, tau to mu + gamma and tauto e + gamma. Results for neutrino mass spectrum with normal hierarchy, values of the lightest u-mass in the range 0 leq m_1 leq 0.30 eV, and quasi-degenerate heavy RH Majorana neutrinos in the cases of bf{R} = bf{1} and complex matrix bf{R} are presented. We find that the effects of the Majorana CP-violation phases and of the RG evolution of neutrino mixing parameters can change by few orders of magnitude the predicted rates of the LFV decays mu to e + gamma and tau to e + gamma. The impact of these effects on the tau to mu + gamma decay rate is typically smaller and only possible for m_1 > 0.10 eV. If the RG running effects are negligible, in a large region of soft SUSY breaking parameter space the ratio of the branching ratios of the mu to e + gamma and tau to e + gamma (tau to mu + gamma) decays is entirely determined in the case of bf{R} cong bf{1} by the values of the neutrino mixing parameters at M_Z.
The recent established large $theta_{13}$ in neutrino mixing provides an optimistic possibility for the investigation of the CP violation, therefore it is necessary to study the CP-violating phase $delta_{rm CP}$ in detail. Based on the maximal CP violation hypothesis in the original Kobayashi-Maskawa (KM) scheme of neutrino mixing matrix, i.e., $delta_{rm KM}=90^circ$, we calculate $delta_{rm CK}$ for both quarks and leptons in the Chau-Keung (CK) scheme of the standard parametrization and find that $delta^{mathrm{quark}}_{mathrm{CK}}=(68.62^{+0.89}_{-0.81})^circ$ and $delta^{mathrm{lepton}}_{mathrm{CK}}=(85.39^{+4.76}_{-1.82})^circ$, provided with three mixing angles to be given. We also examine the sensitivity of $|V_{ij}|$ and $|U_{ij}|$ to $delta_{rm CK}$ and $delta_{rm KM}$. As a convention-independent investigation, we discuss the $Phi$ matrix, which has elements correspond to angles of the unitarity triangles. We demonstrate the $Phi$ matrices for both quark and lepton sectors and discuss the implications as well as the variations of the $Phi$ matrix elements with $delta_{rm CP}$.
The latest experimental progress have established three kinds of neutrino oscillations with three mixing angles measured to rather high precision. There is still one parameter, i.e., the CP violating phase, missing in the neutrino mixing matrix. It is shown that a replay between different parametrizations of the mixing matrix can determine the full neutrino mixing matrix together with the CP violating phase. From the maximal CP violation observed in the original Kobayashi-Maskawa (KM) scheme of quark mixing matrix, we make an Ansatz of maximal CP violation in the neutrino mixing matrix. This leads to the prediction of all nine elements of the neutrino mixing matrix and also a remarkable prediction of the CP violating phase $delta_{rm CK}=(85.48^{+4.67(+12.87)}_{-1.80(-4.90)})^circ$ within $1sigma (3sigma)$ range from available experimental information. We also predict the three angles of the unitarity triangle corresponding to the quark sector for confronting with the CP-violation related measurements.
We discuss the constraints of lepton mixing angles from lepton number violating processes such as neutrinoless double beta decay, (mu^-)-(e^+) conversion and K decay, $K^- to pi^+mu^-mu^-$ which are allowed only if neutrinos are Majorana particles. The rates of these processes are proportional to the averaged neutrino mass defined by $<m_{ u} >_{a b}equiv |sum_{j=1}^{3}U_{a j} U_{b j}m_j|$ in the absence of right-handed weak coupling. Here $a, b (j)$ are flavour(mass) eigen states and $U_{a j}$ is the left-handed lepton mixing matrix. We obtain the consistency conditions which are satisfied irrelevant to the concrete values of CP violation phases (three phases in Majorana neutrinos). These conditions constrain the lepton mixing angles, neutrino masses $m_i$ and (< m_{ u} >_{a b}). By using these constraints we obtain the limits on the averaged neutrino masses for (mu^-)-(e^+) conversion and K decay, $K^- to pi^+mu^-mu^-$.
We analyse the dependence of the rates of the LFV charged lepton decays mu to e + gamma, tau to e + gamma, tau to mu + gamma (l_i to l_j + gamma) and their ratios, predicted in the class of SUSY theories with see-saw mechanism of nu-mass generation and soft SUSY breaking with universal boundary conditions at the GUT scale, on the Majorana CP-violation phases in the PMNS neutrino mixing matrix and the ``leptogenesis CP-violating (CPV) parameters. The case of quasi-degenerate in mass heavy Majorana neutrinos is considered. The analysis is performed for normal hierarchical (NH), inverted hierarchical (IH) and quasi-degenerate (QD) light neutrino mass spectra. We show, in particular, that for NH and IH nu-mass spectrum and negligible lightest neutrino mass, all three l_i to l_j + gamma decay branching ratios, BR(l_i to l_j + gamma), depend on one Majorana phase, one leptogenesis CPV parameter and on the 3-neutrino oscillation parameters; if the CHOOZ mixing angle theta_13 is sufficiently large, they depend on the Dirac CPV phase in the PMNS matrix. The ``double ratios R(21/31) sim BR(mu to e + gamma)/BR(tau to e + gamma) and R(21/32) sim BR(mu to e + gamma)/BR(tau to mu + gamma) are determined by these parameters. The same Majorana phase enters into the NH and IH expressions for the effective Majorana mass in neutrinoless double beta decay, <m>.
