I summarize the status of the $\Delta I=1/2$ rule in $K\to\pi\pi$ decays within an {\it analytic} approach based on the dual representation of QCD as a theory of weakly interacting mesons for large $N$, where $N$ is the number of colours.…
We quantify the important effect of strong final state interactions in the weak $K\to 2\pi$ amplitudes, using the measured $\pi$-$\pi$ phase shifts with J=0 and $I=0,2$. The main results of this analysis, with their implications for…
We examine effects of final state interactions (FSI) in kaon decays using a new scheme without the Omnes function, and show that while Delta I=1/2 rule is impossible to be explained in terms of FSI alone, $\epsilon'/\epsilon\sim 16.5\times…
Although two pion decays of $K$, $D$ and $B$ have similar isospin structures, there are dramatic differences in the ratios $R_K$ and $R_{D,B}$ of amplitudes from $\Delta I =3/2$ and $\Delta I =1/2$ interactions. In $K\to \pi\pi$ decays…
Contrary to wide-spread opinion that the final state interaction (FSI) enhances the amplitude <2\pi;I=0|K^0>, we argue that FSI does not increase the absolute value of this amplitude.
I discuss the role of strong final state interactions (FSI) in K \to 2\pi decays. In this case strong FSI effects can be resummed [1,2] by solving the Omn\`es problem for K\to 2\pi amplitudes. Implications for the CP conserving Delta I=1/2…
The final state interaction (FSI) contribution to charged $D$ decay into $K\pi\pi$ is computed within a light-front framework, considering $S$-wave $K\pi$ interactions in $1/2$ and $3/2$ isospin states. The convergence of the rescattering…
A strong violation of the $\displaystyle{\Delta I = {1\over 2}} $ rule has experimentally been found in the $\displaystyle{D \to \pi\pi}$ decays [1]. In this letter we will show that the order of magnitude of this violation can be…
Strong final state interaction (FSI) effects can play a central role in the Standard Model prediction of weak $K\to 2\pi$ matrix elements. Here, I discuss how FSI's affect the direct CP violation parameter $\vepp / \vep$ by solving the…
We quantify the important effect of strong final state interactions in the weak $K\to2\pi$ amplitudes, using the measured $\pi$--$\pi$ phase shifts with J=0 and $I=0,2$. The final rescattering of the two pions provides a strong enhancement…
There exist many experimental indications that final-state interactions (FSIs) may play a prominent role not only in charmful B decays but also in charmless B ones. We examine the final-state rescattering effects on the hadronic B decay…
The final state interactions (FSI) model in which soft rescattering of low mass intermediate states dominates is suggested. It explains why the strong interaction phases are large in the $B_d\to\pi\pi$ channel and are considerably smaller…

To testify the validity of the perturbative QCD (pQCD) and investigate its application range, one should look for a suitable process to do the job. $B\to J/\psi D$ is a promising candidate. The linear momentum of the products is relatively…
A method parametrizing all inelastic final state interactions (FSI) in $B\to PP$ decays is presented ($P$ - pseudoscalar meson). The method explicitly shows how rescattering leads to the replacement of the short-distance amplitudes with the…

The final state interactions (FSI) in Delta S=-1, Delta C=\pm 1, decays of B-meson are discussed. The rescattering corrections are found to be of order of 15-20%. The strong interaction phase shifts are estimated and their effects on…
The experimental value for the isospin amplitude Re(A_2) in K->pi pi decays has been successfully explained within the Standard Model, both within large N approach to QCD and by QCD lattice calculations. On the other hand in both approaches…
The recent measurements of the color-suppressed modes $\bar B^0\to D^{(*)0}\pi^0$ imply non-vanishing relative final-state interaction (FSI) phases among various $\bar B\to D\pi$ decay amplitudes. Depending on whether or not FSIs are…
The $K\to\pi\pi$ decay amplitudes are studied within the framework of generalized factorization in which the effective Wilson coefficients are gauge-invariant, renormalization-scale and -scheme independent while factorization is applied to…
