The full parameter space of Hermitian quark mass matrices with four texture zeros is explored by using current experimental data. We find that all ten free parameters of the four-zero quark mass matrices can well be constrained. In particular, only one of the two phase parameters plays an important role in CP violation. The structural features of this specific pattern of quark mass matrices are also discussed in detail.

  1. Rephasing invariant structure of CP phase for simplified mixing matrices in Fritzsch--Xing parametrization

    Under the approximations U13^e = 0 and U23^e = 0, the Fritzsch-Xing CP phase equals the sum of the neutrino-intrinsic phase and the relative phase between the first two generations.
