In the context of A_4 symmetry, neutrino tribimaximal mixing is achieved through the breaking of A_4 to Z_3 (Z_2) in the charged-lepton (neutrino) sector respectively. The implied vacuum misalignment of the (1,1,1) and (1,0,0) directions in A_4 space is a difficult technical problem, and cannot be treated without many auxiliary fields and symmetries (and perhaps extra dimensions). It is pointed out here that an alternative scenario exists with A_4 alone and no redundant fields, if neutrino masses are scotogenic, i.e. radiatively induced by dark scalar doublets as recently proposed.

I propose a model of radiative charged-lepton and neutrino masses with $A_4$ symmetry. The soft breaking of $A_4$ to $Z_3$ lepton triality is accomplished by dimension-three terms. The breaking of $Z_3$ by dimension-two terms allow cobimaximal neutri no mixing $(theta_{13} eq 0, theta_{23} = pi/4, delta_{CP} = pm pi/2)$ to be realized with only very small finite calculable deviations from the residual lepton triality. This construction solves a long-standing technical problem inherent in renormalizable $A_4$ models since their inception.
We study the phenomenological implications of the modular symmetry $Gamma(3) simeq A_4$ of lepton flavors facing recent experimental data of neutrino oscillations. The mass matrices of neutrinos and charged leptons are essentially given by fixing the expectation value of modulus $tau$, which is the only source of modular invariance breaking. We introduce no flavons in contrast with the conventional flavor models with $A_4$ symmetry. We classify our neutrino models along with the type I seesaw model, the Weinberg operator model and the Dirac neutrino model. In the normal hierarchy of neutrino masses, the seesaw model is available by taking account of recent experimental data of neutrino oscillations and the cosmological bound of sum of neutrino masses. The predicted $sin^2theta_{23}$ is restricted to be larger than $0.54$ and $delta_{CP}=pm (50^{circ}mbox{--}180^{circ})$. Since the correlation of $sin^2theta_{23}$ and $delta_{CP}$ is sharp, the prediction is testable in the future. It is remarkable that the effective mass $m_{ee}$ of the neutrinoless double beta decay is around $22$,meV while the sum of neutrino masses is predicted to be $145$,meV. On the other hand, for the inverted hierarchy of neutrino masses, only the Dirac neutrino model is consistent with the experimental data.

It has recently been shown that the phenomenologically successful pattern of cobimaximal neutrino mixing ($theta_{13} eq 0$, $theta_{23} = pi/4$, and $delta_{CP} = pm pi/2$) may be achieved in the context of the non-Abelian discrete symmetry $A_4$, if the neutrino mass matrix is diagonalized by an orthogonal matrix ${cal O}$. We study how this pattern would deviate if ${cal O}$ is replaced by an unitary matrix.
General lowest order perturbations to hermitian squared mass matrices of leptons are considered away from the tribimaximal (TBM) limit in which a weak flavor basis with mass diagonal charged leptons is chosen. The three measurable TBM deviants are ex pressed linearly in terms of perturbation induced dimensionless coefficients appearing in the charged lepton and neutrino flavor eigenstates. With unnatural cancellations assumed to be absent and the charged lepton perturbation contributions to their flavor eigenstates argued to be small, we analytically derive the following result. Within lowest order perturbations, a deviation from maximal atmospheric neutrino mixing and the amount of CP violation in neutrino oscillations cannot both be large (i.e. $12$-$17 % $), posing the challenge of verification to forthcoming experiments at the intensity frontier.
In this work we analyze the corrections to tribimaximal (TBM), bimaximal (BM) and democratic (DC) mixing matrices for explaining large reactor mixing angle $theta_{13}$ and checking the consistency with other neutrino mixing angles. The corrections a re parameterized in terms of small orthogonal rotations (R) with corresponding modified PMNS matrix of the form $R_{ij}cdot U cdot R_{kl}$ where $R_{ij}$ is rotation in ij sector and U is any one of these special matrices. We showed the rotations $R_{13}cdot U cdot R_{23}$, $R_{12}cdot U cdot R_{13}$ for BM and $R_{13}cdot U cdot R_{13}$ for TBM perturbative case successfully fit all neutrino mixing angles within $1sigma$ range. The perturbed PMNS matrix $R_{12}cdot U cdot R_{13}$ for DC, TBM and $R_{23}cdot U cdot R_{23}$ for TBM case is successful in producing mixing angles at 2$sigma$ level. The other rotation schemes are either excluded or successful in producing mixing angles at $3sigma$ level.
