One-parameter modular models predict exact high-scale mass relations m_s^5 = 2√2 m_d^3 m_b^2, m_μ^3 = √2 m_e m_τ^2 and m_s^2 m_τ = √2 m_e m_b^2 that become compatible with observed fermion masses after RG evolution and SUSY thresholds.

abstract
The origin of fermion mass hierarchies and mixings is one of the unresolved and most difficult problem in high-energy physics. One possibility to address the flavour problem is by extending the Standard Model to include a family symmetry. In the recent years it has become very popular to use non-Abelian discrete flavour symmetries because of their power in the prediction of the large leptonic mixing angles relevant for neutrino oscillation experiments. Here we give an introduction to the flavour problem and to discrete groups which have been used to attempt a solution for it. We review the current status of models in the light of the recent measurement of the reactor angle and we consider different model building directions taken. The use of the flavons or multi Higgs scalars in model building is discussed as well as the direct vs. indirect approaches. We also focus on the possibility to distinguish experimentally flavour symmetry models by means of mixing sum rules and mass sum rules. In fact, we illustrate in this review the complete path from mathematics, via model building, to experiments, so that any reader interested to start working in the field could use this text as a starting point in order to get a broad overview of the different subject areas.

A benchmark model using genus-2 modular invariance generates quark mass hierarchies and CP violation via moduli VEVs near invariant points, with mass ratios vanishing in the symmetric limit and mixing angles reproduced.
36 viable non-holomorphic S'4 modular models for leptons are identified via numerical scans, with two yielding successful unflavored thermal leptogenesis from the real part of τ while fitting neutrino data.
Six-dimensional primordial black holes with memory burden effects can survive as light dark matter in a two-extra-dimension model at the 10 TeV scale, producing high-multiplicity thermal events at future colliders.
Applies diffusion models to generate 10,000 neutrino mass matrices consistent with oscillation parameters in a seesaw model, revealing non-trivial distributions in CP phases and 0νββ effective mass.
Upcoming neutrino experiments are projected to substantially reduce the number of viable leptonic flavor models in five popular classes by measuring mass ordering, theta_23 octant, delta_CP, and absolute mass scale.
