Abstract
On the basis of the so-called “yukawaon” model, we found a special form of the neutrino mass matrix M ν which gives reasonable predictions. The M ν is given by a multiplication form made of charged lepton mass matrix M e and up-quark mass matrix M u . This M ν has no adjustable parameters except for those in M e and M u . Here, M e and M u are described by one parameter a e (real) and two parameters a u (complex), respectively, and those parameters are constrained by their observed mass ratios. With this form of M ν , in spite of having only three parameters, the M ν can give reasonable predictions: sin22θ atm ≃0.99, sin22θ 13≃0.015, \(\Delta m^{2}_{21}/\Delta m^{2}_{32} \simeq0.030\), 〈m ee 〉≃0.0039 eV, and so on, by using observed values of m e /m μ , m μ /m τ , m c /m t , and sin2 θ solar as input values.
