Generalized CP and delta(3n2) family symmetry for semidirect
predictions of the PMNS matrix
 
  The generalized CP transformations can only be consistently defined in the context of ?(3n2) lepton symmetry if a certain subset of irreducible representations are present in a model. We perform a comprehensive analysis of the possible automorphisms and the corresponding CP transformations of the ?(3n2) group. It is sufficient to only consider three automorphisms if n is not divisible by 3 while an additional eight types of CP transformations could be imposed for the case of n divisible by 3. We study the lepton mixing patterns which can be derived from the ?(3n2) family symmetry and generalized CP in the semidirect approach. The PMNS matrix is determined to be the trimaximal pattern for all the possible CP transformations, and it can only take two distinct forms.

          Abstract
          The generalized CP transformations can only be consistently defined in the context of ?(3n2) lepton symmetry if a certain subset of irreducible representations are present in a model. We perform a comprehensive analysis of the possible automorphisms and the corresponding CP transformations of the ?(3n2) group. It is sufficient to only consider three automorphisms if n is not divisible by 3 while an additional eight types of CP transformations could be imposed for the case of n divisible by 3. We study the lepton mixing patterns which can be derived from the ?(3n2) family symmetry and generalized CP in the semidirect approach. The PMNS matrix is determined to be the trimaximal pattern for all the possible CP transformations, and it can only take two distinct forms.
