Abstract

This report summarizes recent measurements of the CKM matrix elements Vcb|V_{cb}|, Vub|V_{ub}|, and lepton-flavor universality tests in semileptonic B decays from the Belle and Belle~II experiments. The decay branching factions R(D)R(D^{*}) and R(X)R(X) are measured with the Belle~II early dataset and the results are found to be consistent with the Standard Model predictions. From a simultaneous measurement of untagged B0π+νB^0 \to \pi^{-} \ell^{+} \nu and B+ρ0+νB^{+} \to \rho^0 \ell^{+} \nu, the Vub|V_{ub}| value is determined incorporating external theoretical constraints on the decay form factors. The first measurement of the full angular coefficients for BDνB \to D^* \ell \nu decays at Belle provides comprehensive information for determining the decay form factors and Vcb|V_{\mathrm{cb}}|. This presentation also includes measurements of the ratios Vubexcl/Vubincl|V_{ub}|^{\mathrm{excl}}/|V_{ub}|^{\mathrm{incl}} and Vubincl/Vcbincl|V_{ub}|^{\mathrm{incl}}/|V_{cb}|^{\mathrm{incl}}.
