Abstract

Choosing how gauge breaks in the context of , lepton number may be obtained which maintains neutrinos as Dirac fermions. Choosing as the family symmetry of leptons, tree-level Dirac neutrino masses may be forbidden. Choosing a specific set of self-interacting dark-matter particles, Dirac neutrino masses and mixing may then be generated in two loops. This framework allows the realization of cobimaximal neutrino mixing, i.e. , , , as well as the desirable feature that the light scalar mediator of dark-matter interactions decays only to neutrinos, thereby not disrupting the cosmic microwave background (CMB).
