The Bessel equation is shown to be equivalent, under suitable transformations, to a
system of two damped/amplified parametric oscillator...

We present a novel procedure for identifying discrete, leptonic flavour symmetries, given a class of unitary mixing matrices. By creating explicit 3D representations for generators of residual symmetries in both the charged lepton and neutrino sector, we reconstruct large(r) non-abelian flavour groups using the GAP language for computational finite algebra. We use experimental data to...

We discuss the origin of CP violation in settings with a discrete (flavor) symmetry G. We show that physical CP transformations always have to be class-inverting automorphisms of G. This allows us to categorize finite groups into three types: (i) Groups that do not exhibit such an automorphism and, therefore, in generic settings, explicitly violate CP. In settings based on such groups, CP...

In this talk I will present two invisible axion model implementations. The first one consists in an ultraviolet completion of the so-called aligned two-Higgs-doublet model that solves the strong CP problem. I will show that, for certain decoupling scenarios, mixing effects among the scalar fields allow for the possibility to obtain a rich scalar sector at the weak scale.
The second model...

I have the only first principles derivation of the PMNS and CKM matrices within the realm of the Standard Model lagrangian. The mixings originate from the generators of three discrete (i.e., finite) binary rotational subgroups of the EW local gauge group SU(2) x U(1) for three lepton families in R
$^3$ and four related discrete binary rotation subgroups for four quark families in...
