See-Saw Realization of the Texture Zeros in the Neutrino Mass Matrix
read the original abstract
We study the see-saw realization of seven textures of the neutrino mass matrix, which were presented by Frampton, Glashow and Marfatia. Two of them B_1 and B_2 are not realized in the see-saw mechanism without fine-tuning of parameters. We present some specific textures of the Dirac neutrino mass matrix and the right-handed Majorana neutrino one. In order to test these textures, we discuss the effect on the branching ratio of mu --> e gamma. We also study the U(1)_X times U(1)_{X'} flavor symmetry, in which U(1)_X is anomalous and U(1)_{X'} is non-anomolous, to reproduce texture zeros. We present examples of U(1) charges for two textures A_1 and A_2$.

Hunting for Neutrino Texture Zeros with Muon and Tau Flavor Violation
Two-zero textures in the neutrino mass matrix produce distinctive, testable correlations among charged lepton flavor violation processes, with some patterns suppressing muon-to-electron transitions while permitting ta...

Implications of the First JUNO Results for Dirac Neutrino Texture Zeros
JUNO data strongly disfavors Dirac neutrino texture zero pattern C, leaving only patterns A1 and A2 compatible with current oscillation observables.
