Going beyond the minimal texture of quark mass matrices in the era of precision measurements

An attempt has been made to carry out a detailed analysis of quark mass matrices having structure beyond the minimal texture. In particular, keeping in mind, precision measurements of CKM parameters as well as refinements in the ranges of light quark masses, we have examined the viability of all possible combinations of hermitian texture 5 zero quark mass matrices. Interestingly, one finds that all these possibilities are now excluded by the present quark mixing data, thereby, having important implications for model building.

Minimal texture of quark mass matrices and precision CKM measurements

We have carried out an extensive analysis of all possible minimal texture quark mass matrices implying 169 texture 6 zero combinations. One finds that all these combinations are ruled out, a good number of these analytically, the other possibilities are excluded by the present quark mixing data. Interestingly, even if in future, there are changes in the ranges of the light quark masses, these conclusions remain valid.
