We have investigated the present renormalization prescriptions of Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix, and found there is still not an integrated prescription to all loop levels. In this paper We propose a new prescription which is…

We derive the two-loop evolution equations for the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix. We show that to leading order in the mass and CKM hierarchies the scaling of the mixings $|V_{ub}|^2$, $|V_{cb}|^2$, $|V_{td}|^2$, $|V_{ts}|^2$ and of the…
We present an explicit on-shell framework to renormalize the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark mixing matrix at the one-loop level. It is based on a novel procedure to separate the external-leg mixing corrections into gauge-independent…

We study the question of calculability of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements within the framework of universal strength for Yukawa couplings (USY). We first classify all solutions leading to $m_u=m_d=0$ within USY and then…

In Standard Model, CP violation arises from an irreducible complex phase in the quark mixing matrix, now under the name Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix. This description has shown remarkably overall agreement with various experimental…
Given the $3\times 3$ Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark flavor mixing matrix $V$, we define a new set of rephasing invariants in terms of the "trios" of its nine elements: $\lozenge^{ijk}_{\alpha\beta\gamma} \equiv (V^{}_{\alpha i}…
We reconstruct the Standard Model (SM) quark masses and the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix from a five-dimensional model, with the fifth dimension compactified on an S^1/Z_2 orbifold. Fermions are localized only at the orbifold…

Schemes for fermion masses should predict elements of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix. We review the freedom allowed by present experiments and how the parameter space will shrink in the next few years. In addition to experiments…

In the Standard Model of elementary particles, quark-mixing is expressed in terms of a 3 x 3 unitary matrix V, the so called Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix. Significant unitarity checks are so far possible for the first row of this…
