We discuss the relation between the CP violation of the quark mixing and that of the lepton mixing by investigating a CP violating observable, the Jarlskog invariant, as well as the CP violating Dirac phase. The down-type quark mass matrix…

We point out that there exists an absolute lower bound on sin 2\beta in all models with minimal flavour violation (MFV), that do not have any new operators beyond those present in the Standard Model and in which all flavour changing…

An isospin analysis of $B\to\pi\pi$ decays yields $\sin 2\alpha$, where $\alpha$ is the usual CKM angle $\alpha\equiv arg [-V_{td}V_{tb}^\ast /(V_{ud}V_{ub}^\ast)]$, without hadronic uncertainty if isospin is a perfect symmetry. Isospin,…

We review and update the constraints on the parameters of the quark flavour mixing matrix $V_{CKM}$ in the standard model and estimate the resulting CP asymmetries in $B$ decays, taking into account recent experimental and theoretical…

We investigate to what extent the recently measured value for a non-vanishing direct CP asymmetry in D0 -> K+ K- and D0 -> pi+ pi- decays can be accommodated in the Standard Model (SM) or extensions with a constrained flavour sector, for…

In the electroweak sector of the Standard Model, CP violation arises through a very particular interplay between the three quark generations, as described by the Cabibbo--Kobayashi--Maskawa (CKM) mechanism and the single Jarlskog invariant…

We discuss the quark mass matrices in the $A_4$ modular symmetry, where the $A_4$ triplet of Higgs is introduced for each up-quark and down-quark sectors, respectively. The model has six real parameters and two complex parameters in…

In this talk we discuss how the down type left-right squark mixing in Supersymmetry can induce a new source of CP violation in the time dependent asymmtries in B --> phi K process. We use QCD improved factorization process to calculate the…

We show that the study of CP asymmetries in neutral B-meson decays provides a very sensitive probe of flavour-changing neutral currents (FCNC). We introduce two new angles, $\alpha_{SM}$ and $\beta_{SM}$, whose main feature is that they can…

We analyze the low energy implications of a flavor blind supersymmetric scenario (where the CKM matrix is the only source of flavor violation) in the presence of new CP violating but flavor conserving phases in the soft sector. We find that…

For direct CP-violation in $K\to\pi\pi$ decays, the usual isospin-breaking effects at the percent level are amplified by the dynamics behind the $\Delta I=1/2$ rule and conventionally encoded in $\Omega_{\rm IB}$ parameters. The updated…

CP violation induced by resonant transitions of a scalar to a pseudoscalar intermediate state is analyzed within a gauge-invariant resummation approach based on the pinch technique. Necessary conditions governing the resonant enhancement of…

We show that it is possible to implement soft superweak CP violation in the context of a 331 model with only three triplets. All CP violation effects come from the exchange of singly and doubly charged scalars. We consider the implication…

The CP-violating effects are studied in the electron-positron annihilation to produce $t\bar{t}$ pair within the Model-III of the two-Higgs-doublet extensions, which allows flavor changing neutral currents via Higgs exchanges. Complete…

Flavor changing neutral current and CP violating processes are discussed in the minimal supergravity model. The constraint on charged Higgs mass from the new measurement of the inclusive branching ratio of the $b\rightarrow s\gamma$ process…

Recent measurements of time dependent CP asymmetry in B --> phi K_S, if confirmed, would indicate a new source of CP violation. We examine flavor violating tree-level Z currents in models with extra down-type quark singlets that arise…

Four topics in theory of CP violation are reviewed. (a) CP violation in $B$ decays: We describe a new clean way of constraining the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle and how new CP violation in decay amplitudes can signal new…

It is shown that following experimentally viable expressions for quark mixing angles $\theta_{12}$, $\theta_{23}$, $\theta_{13}$ and CP-violating phase $\delta$: $\sin\theta_{12} = \sqrt{m_{d} / |m_{s}|}$, $\sin\theta_{23} = 2 \, |m_{s}| /…

We investigate the possibility to describe the quark mass hierarchies as well as the CKM quark mixing matrix without fine-tuning in a quark flavour model with modular $A_4$ symmetry. The quark mass hierarchies are considered in the vicinity…

Generically, non-Standard-Model particles contribute to processes with order-one charge-parity (CP) violating phases, as CP is not a fundamental symmetry of nature. The exploration of CP violation becomes therefore a sensitive search for…
