Symmetry in neutrino oscillation in matter: New picture and the νSM – non-unitarity interplay
The paper says
“Based on the analyses of UV extended versions of the atmospheric-resonance and the DMP perturbation theories, we argue that the reparametrization symmetry has a diagnostics capability for the theory with the νSM and UV sectors.”

Abstract
We update and summarize the present status of our understanding of the reparametrization symmetry with $i \leftrightarrow j$ state exchange in neutrino oscillation in matter. We introduce a systematic method called “Symmetry Finder” (SF) to uncover such symmetries, demonstrate its efficient hunting capability, and examine their characteristic features. Apparently they have a local nature: The 1-2 and 1-3 state exchange symmetries exist at around the solar- and atmospheric-resonances, respectively, with the level-crossing states exchanged. However, this view is not supported, to date, in the globally valid Denton et al. (DMP) perturbation theory, which possesses the 1-2 exchange symmetry but not the 1-3. It is probably due to lack of our understanding, and we find a clue for a larger symmetry structure than that we know. In the latter part of this article, we introduce non-unitarity, or unitarity violation (UV), into the νSM neutrino paradigm, a low-energy description of beyond νSM new physics at high (or low) scale. Based on the analyses of UV extended versions of the atmospheric-resonance and the DMP perturbation theories, we argue that the reparametrization symmetry has a diagnostics capability for the theory with the νSM and UV sectors. A speculation is given on the topological nature of the identity which determines the transformation property of the UV α parameters.
