Lepton and quark mixing patterns with generalized CP transformations

Abstract

In this work, we have modified a scenario, originally proposed by Grimus and Lavoura, in order to obtain maximal values for atmospheric mixing angle and CP violating Dirac phase of the lepton sector. To achieve this, we have employed CP and some discrete symmetries in a type II seesaw model. In order to make predictions about neutrino mass ordering and the smallness of the reactor angle, we have obtained some conditions on the elements of the neutrino mass matrix of our model. Finally, within the framework of our model, we have studied quark masses and mixing pattern.
