We propose a hybrid scenario incorporating type I and type II seesaw models for neutrino mass where CP symmetry has been broken by the complex vacuum expectation value of a singlet scalar field. Applying appropriate symmetries we show that such a framework can simultaneously explain the neutrino oscillation data and measured baryon asymmetry via leptogenesis. Further, the natural choice of parameters leads to a mixed leptogenesis scenario driven by nearly degenerate right handed singlet neutrino and scalar triplet fields for which we show a detailed analysis.

We introduce a novel hybrid framework combining type I and type II seesaw models for neutrino mass where a complex vacuum expectation value of a singlet scalar field breaks CP spontaneously. Using pragmatic organizing symmetries we demonstrate that such a model can simultaneously explain the neutrino oscillation data and generate observed baryon asymmetry through leptogenesis. Interestingly, natural choice of parameters leads to a mixed leptogenesis scenario driven by nearly degenerate scalar triplet and right handed singlet neutrino fields for which we present a detailed quantitative analysis.
