1. There are no right-handed neutrinos.2. There is only one Higgs doublet of the SU(2)_L.3. There are only renormalizable terms.
To generate non-zero neutrino masses one must relax 1 and (or) 2 (or) 3!

A TeV-scale type-I+II seesaw scenario
NR and ∆ are O(1) TeV or close to the EW scale. MD is O(10) GeV to generate large UV and LNV signatures for N. ML is O(1) GeV to generate large LNV signatures for ∆.
1 GeV10 GeV
100GeV
O(1) O(1)
Some questions:•How to generate small but non-zero neutrino masses?• Does this model conflict with EW precision measurement?• What about the collider signatures of NR and ∆ ?

Small neutrino masses can be generated from slight deviation from this complete “structure cancellation”
The relevant perturbation parameters are mainly responsible for those neutrino masses and contribute little to possible collider signatures ----decoupling between collider physics and the neutrino mass generation.
Discrete flavor symmetry can be used to guarantee the “structure cancellation” ---- Chao, Luo, Xing and Zhou PRD 08

σW is too tiny.Single production is larger.Ratio of σH and σpair lies in the range [1.1, 1.6].Δ should be observed up to
1.2 TeV. N should be observed up to
1.1 TeV.

Concluding remarks
A testable TeV-scale type-I+II seesaw scenario is proposed.
Constraints from EW precision measurement are considered.
Collider signatures are discussed.
Further work is necessary to distinguish LNV signatures of N from those of Δ.
