dc.descriptionWe propose a novel neutrino mixing pattern in terms of only two small integers 1 and 2 together with their square roots and the imaginary number $i$. This ansatz is referred to as the "tetra-maximal" mixing because it can be expressed as a product of four rotation matrices, whose mixing angles are all π/4 in the complex plane. It predicts θ_{12} = \arctan(2-\sqrt{2}) \approx 30.4^\circ, θ_{13} = \arcsin[(\sqrt{2}-1)/(2\sqrt{2})] \approx 8.4^\circ, θ_{23} = 45^\circ and δ=90^\circ in the standard parametrization, and the Jarlskog invariant of leptonic CP violation is found to be {\cal J} = 1/32. These results are compatible with current data and can soon be tested in a variety of neutrino oscillation experiments. Implications of the tetra-maximal neutrino mixing on the decays of doubly-charged Higgs bosons H^{\pm\pm} -> l^\pm_αl^\pm_β(for α, β= e, μ, τ) are also discussed in the triplet seesaw mechanism at the TeV scale, which will be explored at the upcoming LHC.
