The article is devoted to Bc->Bs+n pi, Bc->Bs*+n pi decays with n=1, 2, 3, 4. In the framework of factorization theorem the branching fractions of these processes can be written as convolution of hard part, describing Bc->Bs W, Bc->Bs* W…

In the covariant light-front quark model, we investigate the form factors of $B_c$ decays into $D, D^*, D_s, D_s^*, \eta_c, J/\psi, B, B^*, B_s, B_s^*$ mesons. The form factors in the spacelike region $q^2<0$ are directly evaluated. To…
We present results for the $B \rightarrow \pi$ and $D\rightarrow \pi$ form factors derived from QCD sum rules on the light-cone. Our predictions are compared with experiment and used to extract the quark mixing parameter $|V_{ub}|$ from a…
The weak form factor for $B\to K_{1B}$ where $K_{1B}$ is the $^1P_1$ state is calculated in the light-cone sum rules (LCSR). Combining the quark model result for the form factor of $B\to K_{1A}$ with $K_{1A}$ being the $^3P_1$ state, we…
The bounds on the form factors for $B \to \rho \ell \nu_\ell$ decay are studied. Constrained by lattice data and a constrained conformal mapping, the more informations can be obtained for $A_1(q^2)$ form-factor which dominates the decay…

According to the heavy-quark flavour symmetry, the $B\to \pi, K$ transition form factors could be related to the corresponding ones of D-meson decays near the zero recoil point. With the recent precisely measured exclusive semileptonic…
We review theoretical approaches to form factors that arise in heavy-meson decays and are hadronic expressions of non-perturbative QCD. After motivating their origin in QCD factorisation, we retrace their evolution from quark-model…
The exclusive rare radiative $B$-decays are studied in the framework of the relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach in quantum field theory. The large recoil momentum of the final vector meson allows for the expansion…
We provide a rigorous basis for factorization for a large class of non-leptonic two-body $B$-meson decays in the heavy-quark limit. The factorization formula incorporates elements of the naive factorization approach and the hard-scattering…
We examine the measured rates for the decays $D\to K^{(*)}\ell\nu$, $B\to K^{(*)}\psi^{(\prime)}$ and $B\to K^*\gamma$ in a number of scenarios, in the framework of the heavy quark effective theory. We attempt to find a scenario in which…
Decays of ground state $B_{c}$-meson $B_{c}\to J/\psi+n\pi$ are considered. Using existing parametrizations for $B_{c}\to J/\psi$ form-factors and $W^{*}\to n\pi$ spectral functions we calculate branching fractions and transferred momentum…
