Discrete dark matter with light Dirac neutrinos
read the original abstract
We propose a new realisation of light Dirac neutrino mass and dark matter (DM) within the framework of a non-Abelian discrete flavour symmetry based on $A_4$ group. In addition to $A_4$, we also consider a $Z_2$ and an unbroken global lepton number symmetry $U(1)_L$ to keep unwanted terms away while guaranteeing the Dirac nature of light neutrinos. The field content, their transformations and flavon vacuum alignments are chosen in such a way that the type-I Dirac seesaw generates only one light Dirac neutrino mass while the other two masses arise from scotogenic contributions at one-loop. This leads to the Dirac scoto-seesaw framework, a generalisation of the widely studied scoto-seesaw model to Dirac neutrinos. The symmetry breaking of $A_4$ leaves a remnant $\mathcal{Z}_2$ symmetry responsible for stabilising DM. Dirac nature of light neutrinos introduces additional relativistic degrees of freedom $\Delta N_{\rm eff}$ within reach of cosmic microwave background experiments.

Dirac one-loop seesaw in a non-invertible fusion rule
A one-loop Dirac neutrino mass model stabilized by a non-invertible fusion rule from Z3 x Z3' accommodates oscillation data and provides a viable bosonic dark matter candidate.

$Z^\prime$ Portal Dark Matter with Observable $\Delta N_{\rm eff}$
Dirac right-handed neutrinos in a U(1)_{B-L} Z' portal model produce observable ΔN_eff that, together with direct/indirect detection and collider bounds, carves out testable WIMP and FIMP dark-matter regions.

The Simplest Dirac Scoto-Seesaw Realization
A Dirac scoto-seesaw framework with chiral U(1)B-L charges (-4,-4,5) generates atmospheric neutrino mass at tree level and solar mass radiatively, stabilizes dark matter with residual Z6, and suppresses Z' dilepton decays.

Implications of the First JUNO Results for Dirac Neutrino Texture Zeros
JUNO data strongly disfavors Dirac neutrino texture zero pattern C, leaving only patterns A1 and A2 compatible with current oscillation observables.
