The singlet-Majoron model, with {ital B}{minus}{ital L} broken spontaneously at the GeV scale, allows {Omega}=1 in {nu}{sub {mu}} or {nu}{sub {tau}} with masses in the range of 1 keV to 35 MeV. Neutrino-Majoron scattering leads to an unusual processing of the density perturbation spectrum; the resulting large-scale structure will be very similar to warm or cold dark matter. The Higgs boson may decay predominantly into invisible channels giving signatures with a missing-mass peak.
