Abstract

We discuss the semileptonic weak decays of PPP\to P (PP denotes a pseudoscalar meson). In these timelike processes, the problem of the nonvalence contribution is solved systematically as well as the valence one. These contributions are related to the light-front quark model (LFQM), and the numerical results show the nonvalence contribution of the light-to-light transition is larger than of the heavy-to-light one. In addition, the relevant CKM matrix elements are calculated. They are consistent with the data of Particle Data Group.
