We show that application of quantum unitary groups, in place of ordinary flavor SU(n_f), to such static aspects of hadron phenomenology as hadron masses and mass formulas is indeed fruitful. The so-called q-deformed mass formulas are given…
The chiral theory of mesons of two flavors have been extended to mesons containing strange flavor. Two new mass relations between vector and axial-vector mesons have been obtained. In chiral limit, the physical processes of normal parity…
We have used the light-cone formulation of Chiral-Quark Soliton Model to investigate the vector and axial content of octet, decuplet and the hypothetical antidecuplet in the flavor SU(3) symmetry limit. We have extended previous works by…
The vector mesons in three-flavor quark matter with chiral and diquark condensates are studied using the in-medium QCD sum rules. The diquark condensate leads to a mass splitting between the flavor-octet and flavor-singlet channels. At high…
By comparing SU(3)-breaking scales of linear mass formulae, it is shown that the lowest vector, axial-vector, and scalar mesons all have a $\bar{q}q$ configuration, while the ground-state octet and decuplet baryons are $qqq$. Also, the…
SU(3) flavor dependence of the leading and subleading parameters appeared in the heavy quark expansion of the heavy-light mesons are systematically analyzed by using QCD sum rules.
We consider the axial-vector form factors of the baryon octet in flavor-SU(3) chiral perturbation theory. The baryon octet and decuplet and the pseudoscalar-meson octet are included as explicit degrees of freedom. We explore the use of…
The use, for flavor symmetries, of the quantum (or q-) analogs of unitary groups SU(n_f) yields new, very accurate, baryon mass sum rules. We show, in the 3-flavor case, that such approach accounts for nonpolynomial SU(3)-breaking effects…
Decays of the D mesons to two pseudoscalars, to two vectors, and to pseudoscalar plus vector are discussed in the context of broken flavor SU(3). A few assumptions are used to reduce the number of parameters. Amplitudes are fit to the…
We extend the three-flavor linear sigma model with (axial-)vector mesons to four flavors. We compute the masses of (pseudo)scalar and (axial-)vector mesons including open and hidden charmed mesons as well as weak decay constants. The…
The quantum group $SU_q(3)=U_q(su(3))$ is taken as a baryon flavor symmetry. Accounting for electromagnetic contributions to baryons masses to zeroth order, new charge specific $q$-deformed octet and decuplet baryon mass formulas are…
In the framework of SU(3) symmetry, we present a general analysis of $B$ meson decays into two lighter uncharmed mesons (both pairs of pseudoscalar mesons and pairs of vector and pseudoscalar mesons). From the analysis we find constraints…
Masses of baryons {3/2}^+ are calculated on the base of representations of dynamical "pseudounitary" q-deformed algebra u(4,1)_q which provides necessary breaking of the 4-flavor symmetry realized by the assumed q-algebra su(4)_q. It is…
I discuss a new Physics scenario, the 331 model, based on the gauge group $SU(3)_c \times SU(3)_L \times U(1)_X$. In particular, I elaborate on correlations between flavour observables in the $B_d$ and $B_s$ systems that can help…
We have witnessed some flavor anomalies appeared in the past years, and explanations based on extended gauge sectors are among the most popular solutions. These beyond the Standard Model (SM) theories often assume flavor changing…
The flavor SU(3) group structure of pentaquark baryons which form $\bm{1}$, $\bm{8}$, $\bm{10}$, $\bar{\bm{10}}$, $\bm{27}$, and $\bm{35}$ multiplets is investigated in quark model. The flavor wave functions of all the pentaquark baryons…
Building on our recent proposal to explain the experimental hints of new physics in $B$ meson decays within the framework of Pati-Salam quark-lepton unification, through the interactions of the $(3,1)_{2/3}$ vector leptoquark, we construct…

We study $\bar qq$-hybrid mixing for the light vector mesons and $\bar qq$-glueball mixing for the light scalar mesons in Monte-Carlo based QCD Laplace sum rules. By calculating the two-point correlation function of a vector $\bar…
We study the flavour singlet mesons from first principles using lattice QCD. We explore the splitting between flavour singlet and non-singlet for vector and axial mesons as well as the more commonly studied cases of the scalar and…
