Minimal see-saw model predicting best fit lepton mixing angles
read the original abstract
We discuss a minimal predictive see-saw model in which the right-handed neutrino mainly responsible for the atmospheric neutrino mass has couplings to (nu_e, nu_mu, nu_tau) proportional to (0,1,1) and the right-handed neutrino mainly responsible for the solar neutrino mass has couplings to (nu_e, nu_mu, nu_tau) proportional to (1,4,2), with a relative phase eta = -2pi/5. We show how these patterns of couplings could arise from an A_4 family symmetry model of leptons, together with Z_3 and Z_5 symmetries which fix eta = -2pi/5 up to a discrete phase choice. The PMNS matrix is then completely determined by one remaining parameter which is used to fix the neutrino mass ratio m_2/m_3. The model predicts the lepton mixing angles theta12=34 degrees, theta23=41 degrees, theta13=9.5 degrees, which exactly coincide with the current best fit values for a normal neutrino mass hierarchy, together with the distinctive prediction for the CP violating oscillation phase delta =106 degrees.

The Future of Lepton Flavor
Upcoming neutrino experiments are projected to substantially reduce the number of viable leptonic flavor models in five popular classes by measuring mass ordering, theta_23 octant, delta_CP, and absolute mass scale.
