6d SCFTs and U(1) flavour symmetries
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We study the behaviour of abelian gauge symmetries in six-dimensional N = (1,0) theories upon decoupling gravity and investigate abelian flavour symmetries in the context of 6d N = (1, 0) SCFTs.

U(1) flavour symmetries as Peccei-Quinn symmetries [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 We investigate to what extent a generic, generation-dependent U(1) symmetry acting on the quark Yukawa operators can reduce the number of free parameters by forcing some entries in the Yukawa matrices to vanish.

FCNC-free multi-Higgs-doublet models from broken family symmetries
Physics Letters B, 2020 We demonstrate how residual flavour symmetries, infrared signatures of symmetry breaking in complete models of flavour, can naturally forbid (or limit in a flavour specific way) flavour-changing neutral currents (FCNC) in multi-Higgs-doublet models (MHDM)

Two A4 modular symmetries for Tri-Maximal 2 mixing [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B, 2022 We construct a lepton flavour model based on two A4 modular symmetries. The two A4 are broken by a bi-triplet field to the diagonal A4 subgroup, resulting in an effective modular A4 flavour symmetry with two moduli. We employ these moduli as stabilisers,

Modular flavour symmetries and modulus stabilisation
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We study the problem of modulus stabilisation in the framework of the modular symmetry approach to the flavour problem. By analysing simple UV-motivated CP-invariant potentials for the modulus τ we find that a class of these potentials has (non-fine ...

Low-scale leptogenesis with flavour and CP symmetries
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We consider a type-I seesaw framework endowed with a flavour symmetry, belonging to the series of non-abelian groups ∆(3 n 2) and ∆(6 n 2), and a CP symmetry.

Modular flavour symmetry and orbifolds
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 We develop a bottom-up approach to flavour models which combine modular symmetry with orbifold constructions. We first consider a 6d orbifold 𝕋2 /ℤ N , with a single torus defined by one complex coordinate z and a single modulus field τ, playing the role

Implications of the Muon g-2 result on the flavour structure of the lepton mass matrix
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2021 The confirmation of the discrepancy with the Standard Model predictions in the anomalous magnetic moment by the Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab points to a low scale of new physics.

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023 We investigate flavour bounds on the $${\mathcal {Z}}_2 \times {\mathcal {Z}}_5$$ Z 2 × Z 5 and $${\mathcal {Z}}_2 \times {\mathcal {Z}}_9$$ Z 2 × Z 9 flavour symmetries.

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 We present the first complete model of the Littlest Modular Seesaw, based on two right-handed neutrinos, within the framework of multiple modular symmetries, justifying the use of multiple moduli fields which take their values at 3 specific stabilizers ...
