| contents | The flavor structure of quarks and leptons and quark-lepton unification are studied in the framework of Pati-Salam models with $A_4$ modular symmetry. The three generations of the left-handed and right-handed fermions are assigned to be triplet or singlets of $A_4$. The light neutrino masses are generated through the type-I seesaw mechanism. We perform a systematic classification of Pati-Salam models according to the transformations of matter fields under the $A_4$ modular symmetry, and the general form of the fermion mass matrix is given. We present four phenomenologically viable benchmark models which provide excellent descriptions of masses and flavor mixing of quarks and leptons, including neutrinos. In such models we find that the normal ordered neutrino mass spectrum is preferred over the inverted case, with neutrinoless double beta decay predicted to be too small to be observed by the next generation of experiments. |
