We investigate the physical meaning of some of the "texture zeros" which appear in most of the Ansatze on quark masses and mixings. It is shown that starting from arbitrary quark mass matrices and making a suitable weak basis transformation one can obtain some of these sets of zeros which therefore have no physical content. We then analyse the physical implications of a four-texture zero Ansatz which is in agreement with all present experimental data.

  1. The Very Nearly Right Theory of Flavor

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    A systematic scan of all nine-link Yukawa textures shows the quark CP phase clusters at pi/8, pi/4, pi/2, 3pi/8, and yields precise, falsifiable predictions for the CKM unitarity triangle angles.

  2. One-Zero Neutrino Textures and Resonant Type-II Leptogenesis: Flavor-Resolved Thermal Evolution and Baryon Asymmetry

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Several one-zero neutrino textures remain compatible with oscillation data and generate the baryon asymmetry via resonant Type-II leptogenesis with flavor-resolved Boltzmann evolution.

  3. Emergent Neutrino Texture Geometry from Dark Matter and Lepton Flavor Violation in the Scotogenic Model

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Numerical scans in the minimal scotogenic model indicate that approximate neutrino texture structures emerge dynamically from dark matter and lepton flavor violation consistency conditions.
