We review recent lattice computations relevant for $D$ and $B$ decays. Decay constants $f_{D,D_s}$, $f_{B,B_s}$, $D\rightarrow K (K^*)$, $B\rightarrow \pi , \rho$ semi-leptonic form factors together with the slope of the Isgur-Wise function…
We discuss the Isgur-Wise function $\xi (y)$ in the small velocity (SV) limit within the QCD sum rule method. The behavior of $\xi (y)$ in the SV limit is sensitive to the particular form of the duality relations used to decontaminate the…
The s-wave kaon-antikaon ($K \bar{K}$) elastic scattering length is investigated by lattice simulation using pion masses $m_\pi = 330 - 466$ MeV. Through moving wall sources without gauge fixing, we calculate $K \bar{K}$ four-point…
