30. Significance of the expansion • The Wolfenstein parameter λcan measure both the deviation of quark mixing matrix from the unit matrix, and the deviation of lepton mixing matrix from Bimaximal mixing pattern。 2. The Bimaximal mixing pattern is derived as the leading-order term naturally 。

31. 3. The Bimaximal expansion at first-order can be naturnal obtained: Bimaximalexpansion Expansion base on QLC By re-scaling the Bimaximal expansion can be naturally obtained。

32. 4. The values of λ： after re-scaling in Bimaximal expansion, the value is in the right range of the Wolfenstein parameter. 5. The value of , at best value i.e., Jarlskog parameter can be fixed by the CP violation of the lepton sector，thus one obtain the range of . Therefore all of the 4 parameters can be fixed

35. A remark • The quark and lepton mixing matrices can be parametrized with the same set of Wolfenstein parameters A and λ, therefore the two parameters can describe both the derivation of the quark mixing matrix from the unit matrix and the lepton mixing matrix from the Bimaximal mixing pattern. • If λand A are different for quarks and leptons, we can consider the expansion of the lepton mixing matrix as a general parametrization form in similar to the Wolfenstein parametrization of quark mixing matrix.

36. Relations between masses of quarks and leptons夸克轻子质量的关系:质量的起源和关系？ Quark and lepton masses are 12 free parameters in the standard model. • Are there relations between masses of different generations? • Are there relations between masses of quarks and leptons？
