Renormalization group evolution induced leptogenesis in the minimal seesaw model with the trimaximal mixing and mu-tau reflection symmetry

Abstract In this paper, we consider the imbedding of the popular and well-motivated trimaximal mixing and μ–τ reflection symmetry (which can help us shape the forms of the neutrino mass matrix) in the minimal seesaw model (which contains much fewer parameters than the general seesaw model) with two...
