Within the factorization-assisted topological-amplitude approach, we studied the 33 charmless $B_{(s)} \to VV$ decays, where $V$ stands for a light vector meson. According to the flavor flows, the amplitude of each process can be decomposed…
This paper is concerned with the decoupling of delayed linear forward-backward stochastic differential equations (D-FBSDEs), which is much more involved than the delay-free case due to the infinite dimension caused by the delay. A new…
Experiments have demonstrated that the strong light-matter coupling in polaritonic microcavities significantly enhances transport. Motivated by these experiments, we have solved the disordered multimode Tavis-Cummings model in the…
We estimate final state interactions in the B-meson decays into two light vector mesons by the Regge model. We consider Pomeron exchange and charmed Regge trajectories that can relate intermediate charmed particles to the final state. The…
We analyze various theoretical aspects of CP violation in singly Cabibbo suppressed (SCS) D-meson decays, such as $D \to K K,\pi \pi$. In particular, we explore the possibility that CP asymmetries will be measured close to the present level…
Two-body hadronic weak decays of the charmed baryon $\Omega_c$, including Cabibbo-favored (CF), singly Cabibbo-suppressed (SCS) and doubly Cabibbo-suppressed (DCS) modes, are studied systematically in this work. To estimate nonfactorizable…
The factorization theorem in Decays of $B_{(s)}$ mesons to two charmed mesons (both pseudoscalar and vector) can still be proved in the leading order in $m_D/m_B$ and $\Lambda_{\rm{QCD}}/m_D$ expansion. Working in the perturbative QCD…
The LHCb Collaboration has recently reported the first observation of the decay $\bar B_s^0\to \Lambda_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-$, along with measurements of the branching fractions for both $\bar B^0\to \Lambda_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-$ and $\bar…
I present a critical account of the final-state interaction (FSI) in two-body B decays from viewpoint of the hadron picture. I emphasize that the phase and the magnitude of decay amplitude are related to each other by a dispersion relation.…
The search for $D^0\bar{D}^0$ mixing carries a large discovery potential for new physics since the $D^0\bar{D}^0$ mixing rate is expected to be very small in the Standard Model. The past decade has seen significant experimental progress in…
We investigate the decays of $B$ mesons, i.e., $B_d$, $B_s$, $B^+$, and their antiparticles, to two light vector mesons ($B \to V_1V_2$), focusing on the implications of SU(2) U-spin symmetry, which relates $\Delta S = 0$ and $\Delta S = 1$…
We discuss the impact of the recent untagged analysis of ${B}^0\rightarrow D^{*}l\bar{\nu}_l$ decays by the Belle Collaboration on the extraction of the CKM element $|V_{cb}|$ and provide updated SM predictions for the $b\to c\tau\nu$…
A recent update of data on the decays of $D^0$, $D^+$, and $D_s^+$ to pairs of light pseudoscalars calls for a renewed analysis of key decay amplitudes and tests of flavor symmetry. The present data change our previous understanding of…
We study solutions of the system of PDE $D\psi({\bf v}_t)=\text{div}DF(D{\bf v})$, where $\psi$ and $F$ are convex functions. This type of system arises in various physical models for phase transitions. We establish compactness properties…
Polar surface and interface play a pivotal role for realizing exotic properties of materials, and a search for such polar states is of crucial importance for expanding materials' functionality. Here we report micro-focused angle-resolved…
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 recent evidence of large direct CP violation in D0 decay at LHCb suggests that such CP studies may become an important avenue for understanding CP. In this paper, we make several suggestions to try to clarify the role of new physics in…
Within the perturbative QCD approach, we investigated the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa-favored $B \to \overline{D} S$ ("$S$" denoting the scalar meson) decays on the basis of the two-quark picture. Supposing the scalar mesons are the ground…
