Rare kaon decays are an important testing ground of the electroweak flavor theory: They can provide new signals of CP-violating phenomena. The interplay of long-distance QCD effects in strangeness-changing transitions can be analyzed with…

We present a concise review of the theoretical status of rare K -> pi nu nubar decays in the standard model (SM). Particular attention is thereby devoted to the recent calculation of the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) corrections to…
Kaon physics provides a unique opportunity to identify new flavour and CP violating interactions beyond the Standard Model (SM). In the SM, implied by the hierarchical structure of the CKM matrix and the GIM mechanism, flavour changing…

Soon the NA62 experiment will start looking for the rare K+ ---> pi+ nu nu bar decay. In this talk, its theoretical interests, together with those of the neutral rare decays KL ---> pi0 nu nu bar, KL ---> pi0 e+ e-, and KL ---> pi0 mu+ mu-,…
The rare decays $\mathrm{K}^+\to \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu}$ and $\mathrm{K_L}\to \pi^0 \nu \bar{\nu}$ are extremely attractive processes to study flavor physics because they are both exceptionally clean from a theoretical point of view. These…

The rare kaon decay K^+ --> \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu} is considered in the framework of the models based on the SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_N (3 - 3 - 1) gauge group. It is shown that a lower bound of the Z' mass in the 3 - 3 - 1 model with…

We review some recent theoretical results on rare kaon decays. Particular attention is devoted to establish the short distance (direct CP violating) contribution to K_L => \pi^0 e \bar{e}. This is achieved by a careful study of the long…
Most of the analytic approaches which are used at present to understand Kaon decays, get their inspiration from QCD in the limit of a large number of colours $N_c$. After a general overview, we illustrate this with a recent application to…
