When the standard model is viewed as a low energy effective theory, the neutrinos can obtain mass from higher dimensional operators. It has been known for long that such an operator first appears at mass dimension five and that it is unique. Here we show that the effective neutrino mass operator at every higher dimension is unique. This general claim is established using Young tableau, and illustrated by exhausting all potentially different operators at dimension seven. The result is relevant to the search of new physics effects beyond neutrino mass that can arise at a relatively low energy scale.

    In the BNT neutrino mass model the electroweak vacuum is not generically the global minimum, with stability reducible to two mass inequalities when the quadruplet vev vanishes.
