Relatively Large Theta13 from Modification to the Tri-bimaximal, Bimaximal and Democratic Neutrino Mixing Matrices

Understand

Inspired by the recent T2K indication of a relatively large theta_{13}, we provide a systematic study of some general modifications to three mostly discussed neutrino mixing patterns, i.e., tri-bimaximal, bimaximal and democratic mixing matrices.

• The correlation between theta_{13} and two large mixing angles are provided according to each modifications.
• The phenomenological predictions of theta_{12} and theta_{23} are also discussed.
• After the exclusion of several minimal modifications, we still have reasonable predictions of three mixing angles in 3 Sigma level for other scenarios.
