Predictive Discrete Dark Matter Model

TL;DR

This paper proposes a flavor symmetry-based model linking neutrino oscillation parameters and dark matter stability, with specific predictions for neutrino experiments and dark matter phenomenology.

Contribution

It introduces a novel type-II seesaw model with flavor symmetry Delta(54) that correlates neutrino properties and dark matter stability through a Higgs-portal.

Findings

Consistent with recent reactor angle measurements

Predicts lower bounds for neutrinoless double beta decay

Provides dark matter phenomenology via Higgs-portal

Abstract

Dark Matter stability can be achieved through a partial breaking of a flavor symmetry. In this framework we propose a type-II seesaw model where left-handed matter transforms nontrivially under the flavor group Delta(54), providing correlations between neutrino oscillation parameters, consistent with the recent Daya-Bay and RENO reactor angle measurements, as well as lower bounds for neutrinoless double beta decay. The dark matter phenomenology is provided by a Higgs-portal.
