Lepton Mixing Predictions from Delta(6n²) Family Symmetry
read the original abstract
We obtain predictions of lepton mixing parameters for direct models based on Delta(6n^2) family symmetry groups for arbitrarily large n in which the full Klein symmetry is identified as a subgroup of the family symmetry. After reviewing and developing the group theory associated with Delta(6n^2), we find many new candidates for large n able to yield reactor angle predictions within 3 sigma of recent global fits. We show that such Delta(6n^2) models with Majorana neutrinos predict trimaximal mixing with reactor angle theta_{13} fixed up to a discrete choice, an oscillation phase of either zero or pi and the atmospheric angle sum rules theta_{23}=45 degrees -/+ theta_{13}/sqrt{2}, respectively, which are consistent with recent global fits and will be tested in the near future.

Why Quarks and Leptons Demand Different Symmetries: A Systematic $Z_3$ Froggatt-Nielsen Analysis
A Z3 Froggatt-Nielsen model with one flavon reproduces quark and charged lepton hierarchies but yields neutrino mass-squared ratios too small by two orders of magnitude and random PMNS angles.
