Findings

Predicts dominant double beta decay compatible with cosmological bounds

Forecasts verifiable lepton flavor violation decays

Proposes a new mechanism for heavy neutrino mass generation

Abstract

Very recently a novel implementation of type-II seesaw mechanism for neutrino mass has been proposed in SU(5) grand unified theory with a number of desirable new physical phenomena beyond the standard model.Introducing heavy right-haded neutrinos and extra fermion singlets, in this work we show how the type-I seeaw cancellation mechanism works in this SU(5) framework. Besides predicting verifiable LFV decays, we further show that the model predicts dominant double beta decay with normal hierarchy or inverted hierarchy of active light neutrino masses in concordance with cosmological bound. In addition, a novel mechanism for heavy right-handed neutrino mass generation independent of type-II seesaw predicted mass hierarchy, is suggested in this work.
