abstract
Recently SO(10) models with type-II see-saw dominance have been proposed as a promising framework for obtaining Grand Unification theories with approximate Tri-bimaximal (TB) mixing in the neutrino sector. We make a general study of SO(10) models with type-II see-saw dominance and show that an excellent fit can be obtained for fermion masses and mixings, also including the neutrino sector. To make this statement more significant we compare the performance of type-II see-saw dominance models in fitting the fermion masses and mixings with more conventional models which have no built-in TB mixing in the neutrino sector. For a fair comparison the same input data and fitting procedure is adopted for all different theories. We find that the type-II dominance models lead to an excellent fit, comparable with the best among the available models, but the tight structure of this framework implies a significantly larger amount of fine tuning with respect to other approaches.

Universal two-zero texture in SO(10): implications of JUNO and realization from non-invertible symmetries
The universal two-zero texture in SO(10) fits flavor data with seven parameters, prefers normal neutrino ordering, predicts Dirac-phase regions and meV-scale m_beta beta, and arises from Z_3 gauging of Z_N (minimal N=7) without extra low-energy fields.
