We investigated the dependence of the $K^- d$ scattering length on models of $\bar{K}N$ interaction with one or two poles for $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance. The $\bar{K}NN - \pi \Sigma N$ system is described by coupled-channel Faddeev equations…

Using the potentials derived from vector-meson-exchanges, the $K\bar K$, $DK$, $B\bar K$, $D\bar D$, $B\bar B$, $BD$, $\bar D K$, $BK$ and $B\bar D$ systems are studied. Possible S-wave bound-states of two pseudoscalar mesons are discussed.…
