Lepton-flavour symmetry in the Standard Model is broken by small masses for charged leptons and neutrinos. Introducing neutrino masses via dimension-5 operators associated to lepton-number violation at a very high scale, the corresponding coupling matrix may still have entries of order 1, resembling the situation in the quark sector with large top Yukawa coupling. As we have shown recently, in such a situation one may introduce the coupling matrices between lepton and Higgs fields as non-linear representations of lepton-flavour symmetry within an effective-theory framework. This allows us to separate the effects related to the large mass difference observed in atmospheric neutrino oscillations from those related to the solar mass difference. We discuss the cases of normal or inverted hierarchical and almost degenerate neutrino spectrum, give some examples to illustrate minimal lepton-flavour violation in radiative and leptonic decays, and also provide a systematic definition of next-to-minimal lepton-flavour violation within the non-linear framework.

We give a general analysis of neutrino mixing in the seesaw mechanism with three flavors. Assuming that the Dirac and u-quark mass matrices are similar, we establish simple relations between the neutrino parameters and individual Majorana masses. The
y are shown to depend rather strongly on the physical neutrino mixing angles. We calculate explicitly the implied Majorana mass hierarchies for parameter sets corresponding to different solutions to the solar neutrino problem.
We consider a class of models predicting new heavy neutral fermionic states, whose mixing with the light neutrinos can be naturally significant and produce observable effects below the threshold for their production. We update the indirect limits on
the flavour non-diagonal mixing parameters that can be derived from unitarity, and show that significant rates are in general expected for one-loop-induced rare processes due to the exchange of virtual heavy neutrinos, involving the violation of the muon and electron lepton numbers. In particular, the amplitudes for $mu$--$e$ conversion in nuclei and for $muto ee^+e^-$ show a non-decoupling quadratic dependence on the heavy neutrino mass $M$, while $muto egamma$ is almost independent of the heavy scale above the electroweak scale. These three processes are then used to set stringent constraints on the flavour-violating mixing angles. In all the cases considered, we point out explicitly that the non-decoupling behaviour is strictly related to the spontaneous breaking of the SU(2) symmetry.
We study a neutrino mass model based on $S_4$ flavor symmetry which accommodates lepton mass, mixing with non-zero $theta_{13}$ and CP violation phase. The spontaneous symmetry breaking in the model is imposed to obtain the realistic neutrino mass an
d mixing pattern at the tree- level with renormalizable interactions. Indeed, the neutrinos get small masses from one $SU(2)_L$ doubplet and two $SU(2)_L$ singlets in which one being in $underline{2}$ and the two others in $underline{3}$ under $S_4$ with both the breakings $S_{4}rightarrow S_3$ and $S_{4}rightarrow Z_3$ are taken place in charged lepton sector and $S_4rightarrow mathcal{K}$ in neutrino sector. The model also gives a remarkable prediction of Dirac CP violation $delta_{CP}=frac{pi}{2}$ or $-frac{pi}{2}$ in the both normal and inverted spectrum which is still missing in the neutrino mixing matrix. The relation between lepton mixing angles is also represented.
If observed, charged lepton flavour violation is a clear sign of new physics - beyond the Standard Model minimally extended to accommodate neutrino oscillation data. After a brief review of several charged lepton flavour violation observables and the
ir current experimental status, we consider distinct extensions of the Standard Model which could potentially give rise to observable signals, focusing on the case of models in which the mechanism of neutrino mass generation is the common source of neutral and charged lepton flavour violation.
We have studied neutrinoless double beta decay and charged lepton flavour violation in broken $mu-tau$ symmetric neutrino masses in a generic left-right symmetric model (LRSM). The leading order $mu-tau$ symmetric mass matrix originates from the type
I (II) seesaw mechanism, whereas the perturbations to $mu-tau$ symmetry in order for generation of non-zero reactor mixing angle $theta_{13}$, as required by latest neutrino oscillation data, originates from the type II (I) seesaw mechanism. In our work, we considered four different realizations of $mu-tau$ symmetry, viz. Tribimaximal Mixing (TBM), Bimaximal Mixing (BM), Hexagonal Mixing (HM) and Golden Ratio Mixing (GRM). We then studied the new physics contributions to neutrinoless double beta decay (NDBD) ignoring the left-right gauge boson mixing and the heavy-light neutrino mixing within the framework of LRSM. We have considered the mass of the gauge bosons and scalars to be around TeV and studied the effects of the new physics contributions on the effective mass and the NDBD half life and compared with the current experimental limit imposed by KamLAND-Zen. We further extended our analysis by correlating the lepton flavour violation of the decay processes, $left(murightarrow 3eright)$ and $left(murightarrow egammaright)$ with the lightest neutrino mass and atmospheric mixing angle $theta_{23}$ respectively.
