We discuss CP violation in supersymmetric theories and show that CP phenomena can act as a probe of their origins, i.e., compactification and spontaneous supersymmetry breaking. CP violation as a probe of the flavor structure of…
In the near future, we will have the first significant experimental measurements of CP violation in B decays. These measurements will easily test crucial questions such as whether the Standard Model Kobayashi-Maskawa phase plays a dominant…
We find new sum rules between direct CP asymmetries in $D$ meson decays with coefficients that can be determined from a global fit to branching ratio data. Our sum rules eliminate the penguin topologies $P$ and $PA$, which cannot be…
The availability of data on $B_s$ decays to strange quasi-two-body final states, either with or without charmonium opens new possibilities for understanding different contributions of weak diagrams and in particular the relative…
Recent measurement of time dependent asymmetries in $B \to \phi K$ are indicative of a new source of CP violation. We examine squark mixing in SUSY as this new source, and using QCD improved factorization method to describe $B \to \phi K $…
We show that, on the contrary to the usual claims, fully supersymmetric CP violations in the kaon system are possible through the gluino mediated flavor changing interactions. Both $\epsilon_K$ and ${\rm Re} (\epsilon' / \epsilon_K)$ can be…

Effects of supersymmetric particles on flavor changing neutral current and lepton flavor violating processes are studied in the supersymmetric SU(5) grand unified theory with right-handed neutrino supermultiplets. Using input parameters…
Asymmetric e^+e^- colliders running on the \Upsilon(4S) (B factories) will much more readily measure CP-violating asymmetries in the decays of B_d^0 and B^\pm mesons than in the decays of B_s^0 mesons. As such, they will seemingly not be…
We analyse the CP violation in supersymmetric models with Hermitian Yukawa and trilinear couplings. We show that Hermitian Yukawa matrices can be implemented in supersymmetric models with SU(3) flavor symmetry. An important feature of this…
In this paper, we study the Cabibbo favored three body non-leptonic D^+ \rightarrow K^- \pi^+ \pi^+ decay. We show that the corresponding direct CP asymmetry is so tiny in the framework of the Standard Model and is out of the experimental…
We review some recent results on b decays relevant to future CP violation studies. In particular, some new data on rare hadronic B decays will be presented, as well as inclusive searches for evidence for gluonic penguins and first hints of…
We analyse the low-energy phenomenology of alignment models both model-independently and within supersymmetric (SUSY) scenarios focusing on their CP violation tests at LHCII. Assuming that New Physics (NP) contributes to K-Kbar and D-Dbar…
We discuss the time-dependent CP asymmetry of decay $B \to \phi K_S$ in an extension of the Standard Model with both two Higgs doublets and additional fourth-generation quarks. We show that although the Standard Model with two-Higgs-doublet…
A variety of CP violating asymmetries in $B^0$ decays is predicted in the Standard Model in terms of CKM (Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa) complex phases. These phases can also be determined from rate measurements of certain $B^+$ and $B^-$…
The link between low-energy CP violation and leptogenesis became more accessible with the understanding of flavor effects. However, a definite well-motivated model where such a link occurs was still lacking. Adjoint SU(5) is a simple grand…
CP-violating asymmetries in the decay $B^0(t)\to \pi^+ \pi^-$ are a potentially rich source of information about both strong and weak phases. In a previous treatment by the present authors use was made of an assumption about the relative…
We consider the chargino contribution to the CP violation in $B \to \phi K_S$ decay in the minimal supersymmetric standard model at large $\tan\be$. It is shown that the Wilson coefficient $C_{8g}$ of the chromomagnetic penguin operator can…
We give a new configuration of split fermion positions in one extra dimension with two different Yukawa coupling strengths for up-type, $h_u$, and down-type, $h_d$, quarks at $\frac{h_u}{h_d}=36.0$. The new configurations can give enough CP…
A phenomenological analysis of $D\to K\pi$ and $D_s^+\to K K $decays including both Cabibbo-favored and doubly-Cabibbo-suppressed modes have been presented by employing the present experimental data. SU(3) symmetry breaking effects from the…
