Number Violation

Lepton number violation and its relation to neutrino masses are investigated in several versions of theSU3c⊗SU3L⊗U1xmodel. Spontaneous and explicit violation and conservation of the lepton number are considered. In one of the models (the so-called economical one), the lepton number is spontaneously violated and it is found that the would be Majoron is not present because it is gauged away, providing in this way the longitudinal polarization component to a now massive gauge field.

The Universe

The abundances of baryons and leptons are not only closely related to each other and to the generation of neutrino masses but may also be linked to the dark matter in the Universe. In this paper we review how a consistent physics beyond the Standard Model framework for cosmology and neutrino masses could arise by studying these interrelations.

Observation of the neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) has established that there is lepton number violation in nature and the neutrino masses are Majorana in nature. It also gives the absolute mass of the neutrinos and discriminates between different models of neutrino masses. The allowed amount of lepton number violation puts severe constraints on some possible new physics beyond the standard model. The recent results from WMAP are consistent with the consequences of the neutrinoless double beta decay. They improve some of these constraints very marginally, which we shall summarize here. We mention the new physics which is not affected by WMAP, and which could make the limits from the neutrinoless double beta decay even consistent with much tighter future cosmological limits.

Black holes at the TeV scale are investigated in the extra large dimension scenario. We interpret the lightest black hole excitation as a singlet scalar field, and show how interaction terms can be appended to the standard model at the dimension five non-renormalizable level. Lepton family number violation is natural in this model. Muon magnetic moment, and neutrino masses are investigated. We also present a quantization scheme in n dimensions.
