Abstract

We analyze CP symmetry in symplectic modular-invariant supersymmetric theories. We show that for genus g\ge 3 <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi>g</mml:mi> <mml:mo>≥</mml:mo> <mml:mn>3</mml:mn> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> the definition of CP is unique, while two independent possibilities are allowed when g\le 2 <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi>g</mml:mi> <mml:mo>≤</mml:mo> <mml:mn>2</mml:mn> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> . We discuss the transformation properties of moduli, matter multiplets and modular forms in the Siegel upper half plane, as well as in invariant subspaces. We identify CP-conserving surfaces in the fundamental domain of moduli space. We make use of all these elements to build a CP and symplectic invariant model of lepton masses and mixing angles, where known data are well reproduced and observable phases are predicted in terms of a minimum number of parameters.
