We perform a comprehensive analysis of the minimal eclectic flavor group $Q_{8}\rtimes S_3$ which is isomorphic to $GL(2,3)$, and all its irreducible representations are induced from the irreducible representations of $Q_{8}$ and $S_{3}$. The consistency conditions between EFG and generalized CP (gCP) symmetry are revisited, and we find the gCP sym...

A bstract We study the prediction for leptogenesis in two renormalizable supersymmetric SO(10) × A 4 modular models in which the neutrino mass is dominantly generated by the type I seesaw mechanism. The evolution of the lepton asymmetries are described in terms of the three-flavored density matrix equations for three heavy Majorana neutrinos, where...

A bstract We perform a systematical analysis of the A 4 modular models with generalized CP for the masses and flavor mixing of quarks and leptons, and the most general form of the quark and lepton mass matrices is given. The CP invariance requires all couplings real in the chosen basis and thus the vacuum expectation value of the modulus τ uniquely...

We propose a flavor theory of leptons implementing an A4 family symmetry. Our scheme provides a simple way to derive trimaximal neutrino mixing from first principles, leading to simple and testable predictions for neutrino mixing and CP violation. Dark matter mediates neutrino mass generation, as in the simplest scotogenic model.

We propose a realistic theory of fermion masses and mixings using a five-dimensional warped scenario where all fermions propagate in the bulk and the Higgs field is localized on the IR brane. The assumed T′ flavor symmetry is broken on the branes by flavon fields, providing a consistent scenario where fermion mass hierarchies arise from adequate ch...

The even-weight modular forms of level N can be arranged into the common irreducible representations of the inhomogeneous finite modular group ΓN and the homogeneous finite modular group ΓN′ which is the double covering of ΓN, and the odd-weight modular forms of level N transform in the new representations of ΓN′. We find that the above structure o...

We propose a realistic five-dimensional warped scenario where all standard model fields propagate in the bulk. The assumed $T'$ flavor symmetry is broken on the branes by flavon fields, providing a consistent scenario where fermion mass hierarchies are accounted for by adequate choices of the bulk mass parameters, while quark and lepton mixing angl...

A bstract In the modular symmetry approach to neutrino models, the flavour symmetry emerges as a finite subgroup Γ N of the modular symmetry, broken by the vacuum expec- tation value (VEV) of a modulus field τ . If the VEV of the modulus τ takes some special value, a residual subgroup of Γ N would be preserved. We derive the fixed points τ S = i ,...

We have studied two approaches to predict quark and lepton mixing patterns from the same flavor symmetry group in combination with CP symmetry. The first approach is based on the residual symmetry Z2 in the charged lepton sector and Z2×CP in the neutrino sector. All lepton mixing angles and CP violation phases depend on three real parameters θl, δl...

We discussed the scenario that a discrete flavor group combined with CP symmetry is broken to $Z_2\times CP$ in both neutrino and charged lepton sectors. All lepton mixing angles and CP violation phases are predicted to depend on two free parameters $\theta_{l}$ and $\theta_{\nu}$ varying in the range of $[0, \pi)$. As an example, we comprehensivel...

We suggest two alternative schemes to predict lepton mixing angles as well as $CP$ violating phases from a discrete flavor symmetry group combined with $CP$ symmetry. In the first scenario, the flavor and $CP$ symmetry is broken to the residual groups of the structure $Z_2\times CP$ in the neutrino and charged lepton sectors. The resulting lepton m...

We study a second CP symmetry compatible with the $A_4$ flavor group, which interchanges the representations $\mathbf{1}'$ and $\mathbf{1}"$. We analyze the lepton mixing patterns arising from the $A_4$ and CP symmetry broken to residual subgroups $Z_3$ and $Z_2\times CP$ in the charged lepton and neutrino sectors respectively. One phenomenological...
