アブストラクト: The recent measurements of the solar neutrino mixing angle $\theta_{sol}$ and the Cabibbo mixing angle $\theta_C$ reveal a surprising relation, $ \theta_{sol}+\theta_C\simeq\frac{\pi}{4} $. Interpreting this empirical relation as a support of the quark-lepton unification, we find that the PMNS mixing matrix can be decomposed into a CKM-like matrix and maximal mixing matrices, which can give profound implications on the quark-lepton unification. We explore a possibility to probe the implication of quark-lepton unification by considering the relative sizes of branching ratios for the lepton flavor violating radiative decay processes, $l_i\rightarrow l_j\gamma$, in the context of the supersymmetric standard model with heavy right-handed Majorana neutrinos.
