$\mathbf{B}-\mathbf{L}$ model with ${\mathbf{D}}_4\times {\mathbf{Z}}_4\times {\mathbf{Z}}_2$ symmetry for fermion mass hierarchies and mixings

Abstract

We construct a gauge $B-L$ model with $D_4\times Z_4\times Z_2$ symmetry that can explain the quark and lepton mass hierarchies and their mixings with the realistic CP phases via the type-I seesaw mechanism. Six quark mases, three quark mixing angles and CP phase in the quark sector can get the central values and Yukawa couplings in the quark sector are diluted a range of three orders of magnitude difference by the perturbation theory at the first order. For neutrino sector, the smallness of neutrino mass is achieved by the Type-I seesaw mechanism. Both inverted and normal neutrino mass hierarchies are in consistent with the experimental data. The prediction for the sum of neutrino masses for normal and inverted hierarchies, the effective neutrino masses and the Dirac CP phase are well consistent with all the recent limits.
