We construct a neutrino mass model based on the flavour symmetry group $A_4times C_4 times C_6 times C_2$ which accommodates a light sterile neutrino in the minimal extended seesaw (MES) scheme. Besides the flavour symmetry, we introduce a $U(1)$ gauge symmetry in the sterile sector and also impose CP symmetry. The vacuum alignments of the scalar fields in the model spontaneously break these symmetries and lead to the construction of the fermion mass matrices. With the help of the MES formulas, we extract the light neutrino masses and the mixing observables. In the active neutrino sector, we obtain the $text{TM}_2$ mixing pattern with non-zero reactor angle and broken $mu$-$tau$ reflection symmetry. We express all the active and the sterile oscillation observables in terms of only four real model parameters. Using this highly constrained scenario we predict $sin^2 theta_{23} =0.545^{+0.003}_{-0.004}$, $sin delta = -0.911^{+0.006}_{-0.005}$, $|U_{e4}|^2 = 0.029^{+0.009}_{-0.008}$, $|U_{mu4}|^2 = 0.010^{+0.003}_{-0.003}$ and $|U_{tau4}|^2 = 0.006^{+0.002}_{-0.002}$ which are consistent with the current data.
We explore the possibility of a single generation of $keV$ scale sterile neutrino ($m_S$) as a dark matter candidate within the minimal extended seesaw (MES) framework and its influence in neutrinoless double beta decay ($0 ubetabeta$) study. Three h
We build a supersymmetric model with $SU(2)_{L}otimes SU(2)_{R}otimes U(1)_{(B-L)}$ electroweak gauge symmetry, where $SU(2)_{L}$ is the left-handed currents while $SU(2)_{R}$ is the right-handed currents and $B$ and $L$ are the usual baryonic and le
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
We propose a Standard Model extension with underlying A4 flavour symmetry where small Dirac neutrino masses arise from a Type-II seesaw mechanism. The model predicts the golden flavour-dependent bottom-tau mass relation, requires an inverted neutrino
We present a general framework for models in which the lepton mixing matrix is the product of the maximal mixing matrix U_omega times a matrix constrained by a well-defined Z_2 symmetry. Our framework relies on neither supersymmetry nor non-renormali
