An A4 model for lepton masses and mixings

Morisi, S., Peinado, E.

Understand

We study an extension of the standard model based on the flavor symmetry A4 only.

  • Neutrino Majorana mass terms arise from dimension five operator and charged lepton masses from renormalizable Yukawa couplings.
  • We introduce three Higgs doublets that belong to one triplet irreducible representation of A4.
  • We study the most general A4-invariant scalar potential and the phenomenological consequences of the model.
