In a simple framework which naturally incorporates dark matter stability and neutrino phenomenology, we compute all the possible texture zeros which arise when the non-abelian flavor symmetry A4 is spontaneously broken to Z2. As a result, we obtain four textures with two vanishing matrix elements. Two of such textures predict a zero contribution to the neutrinoless double beta decay effective mass parameter at tree level, and as a one loop bound we get $m_{ee}<8times 10^{-2}$ meV. These are compatible with the normal ordering for the neutrino masses and the allowed range for the lightest neutrino mass is between $m_{ u_{min}}sim3$ meV and $m_{ u_{max}}sim8$ meV. Additionally we obtain dark matter stability linked to the way the flavor symmetry is broken, leaving a residual Z2 symmetry

We study the impact of maximal zeros of the Dirac mass matrix on neutrino phenomenology and dark matter within the framework of an inverse seesaw ISS $(2,3)$. ISS $(2,3)$ is obtained by adding two right handed neutrinos and three gauge singlets steri le fermions to the standard model leading to an extra sterile state in the keV range. The model is more predictive because of the presence of fewer numbers of right handed neutrinos than the conventional inverse seesaw. Moreover, texture zeros in the structures of the mass matrices involved in the model can reduce the free parameters. We extensively study the effect of different textures of Dirac mass matrix on sterile neutrino dark matter phenomenology. Our study also includes the implications of these texture zero mass matrices on low energy phenomena like neutrinoless double beta decay (0$ ubetabeta$). The zero textures highly constrain the parameter space of the model. Based on the allowed cosmological ranges of the relic abundance, decay rates, and dark matter mixing with the active neutrinos, we study the viability of the different textures within the framework.
We investigate a model in which Dark Matter is stabilized by means of a Z2 parity that results from the same non-abelian discrete flavor symmetry which accounts for the observed pattern of neutrino mixing. In our A4 example the standard model is exte nded by three extra Higgs doublets and the Z2 parity emerges as a remnant of the spontaneous breaking of A4 after electroweak symmetry breaking. We perform an analysis of the parameter space of the model consistent with electroweak precision tests, collider searches and perturbativity. We determine the regions compatible with the observed relic dark matter density and we present prospects for detection in direct as well as indirect Dark Matter search experiments.
We investigate scaling ansatz with texture zeros within the framework of linear seesaw mechanism. In this variant of seesaw mechanism a simplified expression of effective neutrino mass matrix $m_ u$ containing two Dirac type matrices ($m_D$ and $m_{D S}$) and one Majorana type matrix ($m_{RS}$) is obtained by virtue of neglecting the global $U(1)_L$ symmetry breaking term in the mass term of the Lagrangian. Along with the charged lepton mass matrix, the matrix $m_{RS}$ too, is chosen in a diagonal basis whereas a scaling relation is incorporated in $m_D$ and $m_{DS}$ with different scale factors. Our goal in this work is to achieve a completely phenomenologically acceptable $m_ u$ generated by combinations of $m_D$ and $m_{DS}$ containing least number of independent parameters or maximum number of zeros. At the end of the numerical analysis it is found that number of zeros in any of the constituent Dirac type matrices ($m_D$ and $m_{DS}$) of $m_ u$ cannot be greater than six in order to meet the phenomenological requirements. The hierarchy obtained here is normal and also the values of the two parameters sum mass ($sum m_i$) and $|m_{ u_{ee}}|$ are below the present experimental lower limit.
Several popular Ansatze of lepton mass matrices that contain texture zeros are confronted with current neutrino observational data. We perform a systematic $chi^2$-analysis in a wide class of schemes, considering arbitrary Hermitian charged lepton ma ss matrices and symmetric mass matrices for Majorana neutrinos or Hermitian mass matrices for Dirac neutrinos. Our study reveals that several patterns are still consistent with all the observations at 68.27% confidence level, while some others are disfavored or excluded by the experimental data. The well-known Frampton-Glashow-Marfatia two-zero textures, hybrid textures and parallel structures, among others, are considered.

Motivated by the discovery hint of the Standard Model (SM) Higgs mass around 125 GeV at the LHC, we study the vacuum stability and perturbativity bounds on Higgs scalar of the SM extensions including neutrinos and dark matter (DM). Guided by the SM g auge symmetry and the minimal changes in the SM Higgs potential we consider two extensions of neutrino sector (Type-I and Type-III seesaw mechanisms) and DM sector (a real scalar singlet (darkon) and minimal dark matter (MDM)) respectively. The darkon contributes positively to the $beta$ function of the Higgs quartic coupling $lambda$ and can stabilize the SM vacuum up to high scale. Similar to the top quark in the SM we find the cause of instability is sensitive to the size of new Yukawa couplings between heavy neutrinos and Higgs boson, namely, the scale of seesaw mechanism. MDM and Type-III seesaw fermion triplet, two nontrivial representations of $SU(2)_{L}$ group, will bring the additional positive contributions to the gauge coupling $g_{2}$ renormalization group (RG) evolution and would also help to stabilize the electroweak vacuum up to high scale.
