A general formalism is presented for violations of Lorentz and CPT symmetry in the neutrino sector. The effective hamiltonian for neutrino propagation in the presence of Lorentz and CPT violation is derived, and its properties are studied. Possible definitive signals in existing and future neutrino-oscillation experiments are discussed. Among the predictions are direction-dependent effects, including neutrino-antineutrino mixing, sidereal and annual variations, and compass asymmetries. Other consequences of Lorentz and CPT violation involve unconventional energy dependences in oscillation lengths and mixing angles. A variety of simple models both with and without neutrino masses are developed to illustrate key physical effects. The attainable sensitivities to coefficients for Lorentz violation in the Standard-Model Extension are estimated for various types of experiments. Many experiments have potential sensitivity to Planck-suppressed effects, comparable to the best tests in other sectors. The lack of existing experimental constraints, the wide range of available coefficient space, and the variety of novel effects imply that some or perhaps even all of the existing data on neutrino oscillations might be due to Lorentz and CPT violation.

  1. Electron stability constrains neutrino time delays

    hep-ph 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Electron stability observations rule out the subluminal LIV parameters previously used to explain high-energy neutrino time delays.

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    CPT violation parametrized by δΔm²₃₁ induces a phase shift degenerate with δ_CP; existing atmospheric data constrains |δΔm²₃₁| ≤ 0.57×10^{-3} eV² at 90% CL.

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Correlated HNL discovery at SHiP and flavor ratio shifts in astrophysical neutrinos at telescopes would establish neutrinos as Majorana fermions.

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    Combined CPT-violating and CPT-conserving Lorentz-invariance-violation parameters suppress DUNE's CP-violation sensitivity below 3σ over much of the δ_CP range and introduce parameter degeneracies that complicate δ_CP...

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Ultra-high-energy tau neutrino detections at GRAND and POEMMA are projected to constrain Lorentz invariance violation parameters orders of magnitude more stringently than current lower-energy probes.
