We study the total and the geometric phase associated with neutrino mixing and we show that the phases produced by the neutrino oscillations have different values depending on the representation of the mixing matrix and on the neutrino nature. Therefore the phases represent a possible probe to distinguish between Dirac and Majorana neutrinos.

We study the geometric phase (GP) in neutrino oscillation for both Dirac and Majorana neutrinos. We apply the kinematic generalization of the GP to quantum open systems that take into account the coupling to a dissipative environment. In the dissipat ionless case, the GP does not depend on the Majorana angle. It is not the case in the presence of dissipation and hence the GP can serve as a tool determining the type of the Dirac vs the Majorana neutrino.

We analyze the geometric phase in the neutrino oscillation phenomenon, which follows the pion decay pi+ --> mu+ + u_{mu}. Its value pi is consistent with the present-day global analysis of the Standard Model neutrino oscillation parameters, accounti ng for the nonzero value of theta_13. The impact of the charge-parity (CP) violating phase delta, the neutrinos nature, and the new physics is discussed.
We analyze many aspects of the phenomenon of the decoherence for neutrinos propagating in long baseline experiments. We show that, in the presence of an off-diagonal term in the dissipative matrix, the Majorana neutrino can violate the CP T symmetry, which, on the contrary, is preserved for Dirac neutrinos. We show that oscillation formulas for Majorana neutrinos depend on the choice of the mixing matrix U. Indeed, different choices of U lead to different oscillation formulas. Moreover, we study the possibility to reveal the differences between Dirac and Majorana neutrinos in the oscillations. We use the present values of the experimental parameters in order to relate our theoretical proposal with experiments.

Geometric (Aharonov--Anandan) phases in neutrino oscillations have been claimed [Phys. Lett. B 780 (2018) 216] to be sensitive to the Majorana phases in neutrino mixing. More recently, however, it has been pointed out [Phys. Lett. B 818 (2021) 136376 ] that the proposed phases are not gauge invariant. Using both kinematic and geometric approaches, we show that all gauge-invariant Aharonov--Anandan phases (including the off-diagonal geometric phases associated with flavor transitions) are independent of the Majorana phases. This finding, which generalizes the well-known fact that conventional oscillation experiments cannot discern the Dirac or Majorana nature of the neutrino, implies that a hypothetical interference experiment cannot distinguish between the two either.
We study decoherence effects on mixing among three generations of neutrinos. We show that in presence of a non--diagonal dissipation matrix, both Dirac and Majorana neutrinos can violate the $CPT$ symmetry and the oscillation formulae depend on the p arametrization of the mixing matrix. We reveal the $CP$ violation in the transitions preserving the flavor, for a certain form of the dissipator. In particular, the $CP$ violation affects all the transitions in the case of Majorana neutrinos, unlike Dirac neutrinos which still preserve the $CP$ symmetry in one of the transitions flavor preserving. This theoretical result shows that decoherence effects, if exist for neutrinos, could allow to determine the neutrino nature and to test fundamental symmetries of physics. Next long baseline experiments could allow such an analysis. We relate our study with experiments by using the characteristic parameters and the constraints on the elements of the dissipation matrix of current experiments.
