Abstract: (Elsevier)
We obtain predictions of lepton mixing parameters for direct models based on Δ(6n2) family symmetry groups for arbitrarily large n in which the full Klein symmetry is identified as a subgroup of the family symmetry. After reviewing and developing the group theory associated with Δ(6n2) , we find many new candidates for large n able to yield reactor angle predictions within 3 σ of recent global fits. We show that such Δ(6n2) models with Majorana neutrinos predict trimaximal mixing with reactor angle θ13 fixed up to a discrete choice, an oscillation phase of either zero or π and the atmospheric angle sum rules θ23=45°∓θ13/2 , respectively, which are consistent with recent global fits and will be tested in the near future.Note:
