In the recent years, fruitful results on charmed baryons are obtained by BESIII, Belle and LHCb. We investigate the two-body non-leptonic decays of charmed baryons in the flavor $SU(3)$ symmetry. Hundreds of amplitude relations are clearly…
Global fits to charmless B --> PP decays in the framework of flavor SU(3) symmetry are updated and improved without reference to the \sin2\beta measured from the charmonium decay modes. Fit results directly constrain the (\bar\rho,\bar\eta)…
Isospin and flavor SU(3) relations in charmless hadronic B decays $B\to \pi \pi, \pi K$ are investigated in detail with paying attention to the SU(3) symmetry breaking effects in both amplitudes and strong phases. In general, the isospin…
The recent LHCb measurements of the $B_s \to K^-\pi^+$ and $B_s \to K^+K^-$ rates and CP asymmetries are in agreement with U-spin expectations from $B_d \to K^+\pi^-$ and $B_d \to \pi^+\pi^-$ results. We derive the complete set of isospin,…
We perform a global fits to charmless $B \to PP$ decays which independently constrain the $(\bar\rho,\bar\eta)$ vertex of the unitarity triangle. The fitted amplitudes and phase are used to predict the branching ratios and CP asymmetries of…
We study the singly charmed baryon two-body decays of $\mathbf{B}_c \rightarrow \mathbf{B}_D P$ under $SU(3)_{F}$ flavor symmetry, where ${\bf B}_{c}$ refers to anti-triplet singly charmed baryons, and ${\bf B}_{D}$ and $P$ denote decuplet…
We consider two SU(3) breaking parameters, $R_1(m_B)$ and $R_2(m_B)$, appearing in a relation between $B^+\to K\pi$ and $B^+\to\pi\pi$ amplitudes, which plays an important role in determining the weak phase $\gamma$. We identify an…
Using flavor SU(3) symmetry, we perform a model-independent analysis of charmless $\bar B_{u,d} (\bar B_s) \to PP, ~PV$ decays. All the relevant topological diagrams, including the presumably subleading diagrams, such as the QCD- and…
We present updated results of an SU(3)-flavor analysis of D->P P decay data including linear breaking and no further assumptions. The global fit is consistent with nominal (~ 30%) SU(3)F breaking and returns enhanced penguin (triplet)…
The decays of $B$ mesons to a pair of charmless pseudoscalar ($P$) mesons are analyzed within a framework of flavor SU(3). Symmetry breaking is taken into account in tree ($T$) amplitudes through ratios of decay constants; exact SU(3) is…
Branching fractions and CP-violating asymmetries of charmless $B_s\to PPP$ decays with $P=K,\pi$ are studied using a simple model based on the factorization approach. The penguin-dominated modes $B_s\to \bar K^0 K^+\pi^-$ and $K^0K^-\pi^+$…
We explore the breaking effects of the $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry in the singly Cabibbo-suppressed anti-triplet charmed baryon decays of ${\bf B}_c\to {\bf B}_n M$, with ${\bf B}_c=(\Xi_c^0,\Xi_c^+,\Lambda_c^+)$ and ${\bf B}_n(M)$ the baryon…
Several modes of $B$ decays into three pseudoscalar octet mesons PPP have been measured. These decays have provided useful information for B decays in the standard model (SM). Some of powerful tools in analyzing B decays are flavor $SU(3)$…
QCD sum rules are used to estimate the flavour SU(3)-symmetry violation in two-body B decays to pions and kaons. In the factorizable amplitudes the SU(3)-violation manifests itself in the ratio of the decay constants f_K/f_pi and in the…
Flavor SU(3) symmetry, including $30\%$ first order SU(3) breaking, has been shown to describe adequately a vast amount of data for charmed meson decays to two pseudoscalar mesons and to a vector and a pseudoscalar meson. We review a recent…
New data from the BaBar, Belle, and CLEO Collaborations on B decays to two-body charmless final states are analyzed, with the following consequences: (1) The penguin amplitude which dominates the decay $B^+ \to \pi^+ K^{*0}$ has a magnitude…
I estimate the SU(3) flavour symmetry breaking in the ratio of penguin-to-tree ratios of the decays B_s\to K^+ K^- and B_d\to\pi^+\pi^-, given an assumption on the flavour symmetry breaking of the hadronic input parameters. The decay…
Motivated by recent data on B-> p pbar K decay, we study various charmless three-body baryonic B decay modes, including Lambda pbar pi, Sigma0 pbar pi, p pbar pi, p pbar Kbar0, in a factorization approach. These modes have rates of order…
We study the decays of $B_{(s)}$ mesons into light pseudoscalar mesons under the $SU(3)$ flavour symmetry. Assuming exact $SU(3)$ symmetry at the level of the amplitudes leads to a simple parameterization. Using the available experimental…
