The understanding of flavour dynamics is one of the key aims of elementary particle physics. The last 15 years have witnessed the triumph of the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism, which describes all flavour changing transitions of quarks in the…
In absence of direct signs of new physics at the LHC, flavour physics provides an ideal laboratory to look for deviations from the Standard Model and explore an energy regime beyond the LHC reach. Here, new results in CP violation and rare…
Flavour physics is currently well described by the Standard Model except for some measurements which could be signalling new physics. We briefly summarize the status of tensions in rare exclusive semi-leptonic $B$ decays and in…

Flavour physics addresses some of the questions for which the Standard Model does not provide a satisfactory and complete answer: the origin of the replication of the fundamental constituents and of their mass hierarchy. This paper reviews…
The focus of this report is the lattice calculation of hadronic parameters relevant to heavy flavour phenomenology. I will review recent results and the current status of studies of the B and D decay constants, semileptonic decay form…

If observed, charged lepton flavour violation is a clear sign of new physics - beyond the Standard Model minimally extended to accommodate neutrino oscillation data. We briefly review several extensions of the Standard Model which could…
Based on flavour symmetries only, there are two ways to give rise to an effective description of flavour physics in the quark sector close to the CKM picture: one is based on $U(3)_q\times U(3)_u\times U(3)_d$ (or equivalent) and the other…
