Can the nondiagonal charged-lepton mass matrix improve the tripartite neutrino mixing?
Abstract
Description
It is shown that the off-diagonal corrections in a realistic charged-lepton mass matrix, introduced previously by the author, cannot improve much the tripartite neutrino mixing. In fact, $s^2_{12} = 1/3 - 0.005 = 0.328 \simeq 1/3 $ for $s^2_{12}$ improved in this way, while $s^2_{12 {\rm exp}} = 0.314 = 1/3 - 0.019$ for the central value of experimental $s^2_{12 {\rm exp}}$.
