Descripción
I will present a flavour model for leptons based on the discrete non-Abelian group A4. In the first part, I will illustrate the construction of the model, possible exstentions to the quark sector and the solution to the vacuum alignment problem. In the second part, I will show the predictions of the model for some LFV transitions, EDMs and MDMs. The analysis has been done in two different scenarions: in the first one a low-energy operatorial approach is used, where all the effects are dominated by dimension six operators; in the second one an exact calculation of the relevant diagrammatics has been done in a SUSY context. Interesting indications for the scale of new physics and an upper limit on the leptonic \theta_13 of a few percent are concluded.
