Radiative Scaling Neutrino Mass with $A_4$ Symmetry

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 $(eta^+,eta^0)$.

Heptagonic Symmetry for Quarks and Leptons

The non-Abelian discrete symmetry D(7) of the heptagon is successfully applied to both quark and lepton mass matrices, including CP violation.

Scotogenic $A_4$ Neutrino Model for Nonzero $theta_{13}$ and Large $delta_{CP}$

Assuming that neutrinos acquire radiative seesaw Majorana masses through their interactions with dark matter, i.e. scotogenic from the Greek scotos meaning darkness, and using the non-Abelian discrete symmetry $A_4$, we propose a model of neutrino masses and mixing with nonzero $theta_{13}$ and necessarily large leptonic CP violation, allowing both the normal and inverted hierarchies of neutrino masses, as well as quasi-degenerate solutions.
