Completing constrained flavor violation: lepton masses, neutrinos and leptogenesis

Constrained flavor violation is a recent proposal for predicting the down-quark Yukawa matrix in terms of those for up quarks and charged leptons. We study the viability of CFV with respect to its predictions for the lepton mass ratios, showing that this remains a challenge, and suggest some possible means for improving this shortcoming. We then extend CFV to include neutrinos, and show that it leads to interesting predictions for hierachical heavy neutrinos, and leptogenesis dominated by decays of the second heaviest one ("N2 leptogenesis"), as well as the possibility of low-scale leptoquark-mediated exotic decays.
