In 2010, $\Lambda^*_{c\bar{c}}$ states were predicted as the strange number $S=-1$ partners of $N^*_{c\bar{c}}$, which are well known now as the $P_c$ states and observed experimentally by LHCb Collaboration. We analyze the decay behaviors…

It is pointed out that the previously suggested interpretation of the hidden-charm pentaquarks $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ as molecular bound states of $\Sigma_c \bar D$ and $\Sigma_c \bar D^*$ baryon-meson pairs gives rise to…
We study the $Z^\pm(4430)$ meson within a heavy hadron molecule interpretation where the $Z$ is considered as a bound state of a vector $D^\ast(2010)$ and an axial-vector $D_1(2420)$. We give predictions for the strong hidden-charm…
The decay behavior of an exotic state can be used to probe its internal structure. We note that the hidden-charm pentaquark states, $P_{\psi}^{N}(4312)$, $P_{\psi}^{N}(4440)$, and $P_{\psi}^{N}(4457)$, have only been observed in the $J/\psi…
In our former work [arXiv:2011.07214], the $P_{cs}(4459)$ observed by the LHCb Collaboration can be explained as a coupled strange hidden-charm $\Xi_c\bar{D}^*/\Xi_c^*\bar{D}/\Xi_c'\bar{D}^*/\Xi_c^*\bar{D}^*$ molecule with…
The recently discovered $P_c(4380)^+$ and $P_c(4450)^+$ states at LHCb have masses close to the $\bar D\Sigma_c^*$ and $\bar D^*\Sigma_c$ thresholds, respectively, which suggest that they may have significant meson-baryon molecular…
We study hadronic molecular states in a coupled system of $J/\psi N - \Lambda_c\bar{D}^{(*)} - \Sigma_c^{(*)}\bar{D}^{(*)}$ in $I(J^P) = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{3}{2}^-)$ channel, using the complex scaling method combined with the Gaussian…

In this work, we explore the hadronic coupling constants $G_{ZJ/\psi K}$, $G_{Z\eta_c K^*}$, $G_{ZD^* \bar{D}_s}$ of the exotic states $Z_{cs}(3985/4000)$ both in the pictures of the tetraquark states and molecular states with the tentative…
Inspired by BESIII's measurement of the decay $Z_c(3900)^{\pm}\rightarrow \rho^{\pm}\eta_c$, we calculate the branching fraction ratio between the $\rho\eta_c$ and $\pi J/\psi$ decay modes for the charged states $Z_c(3900)$, $Z_c(4020)$ and…
