Motivated by recent experimental results, we use a factorization approach to study the three-body B --> D(*) K- K0 decay modes. Two mechanisms are proposed for kaon pair production: current-produced (from vacuum) and transition (from B…
Quantum field theory provides a consistent framework to deal with unstable particles. We present here an approach based on field theory to describe the production and decay of unstable $K^0-\bar{K^0}$ and $B^0-\bar{B^0}$ mixed systems. The…
Baryon asymmetry of the universe (BAU) is naturally explained with $K^0-K^{0'}$ oscillations of a newly developed mirror-matter model and new understanding of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) phase transitions. A consistent picture for the…
The $B \to \kappa \bar \kappa$ decays are investigated for the first time in the perturbative QCD formalism based on the $k_T$ factorization theorem, where the light scalar $\kappa$ is assumed as a two-quark state. Our numerical results and…
Long distance contribution to the $K^0-\bar K^0$ mixing is taken into account consistently and the corrections to the naive duality result represented by the famous box diagram are found to be small. Estimates are given in the leading order…
The KAM iterative scheme turns out to be effective in many problems arising in perturbation theory. I propose an abstract version of the KAM theorem to gather these different results.

The present status of Kaon physics is summarized from a theory point of view. Focus is laid on $\Delta S=2$, $\Delta S=1$ as well as on rare Kaon decays, where progress has been made for instance in the case of $\varepsilon_K$ and $K_S\to…
