Neutrinos and flavor symmetries

We discuss the recent progress of flavor models with the non-Abelian discrete symmetry in the lepton sector focusing on the 13 and CP violating phase. In both direct approach and indirect approach of the flavor symmetry, the nonvanishing 13 is predictable. The flavor symmetry with the generalised CP symmetry can also predicts the CP violating phase. We show the phenomenological analyses of neutrino mixing for the typical flavor models.
