Many exclusive $c\to d/s\ell^+\nu_\ell~(\ell=e,\mu,\tau)$ transitions have been well measured, and they can be used to test the theoretical calculations. Motivated by this, we study the $D\to P/V/S\ell^+\nu_\ell$ decays induced by the $c\to…

Global fits to charmless B --> PP decays in the framework of flavor SU(3) symmetry are updated and improved without reference to the \sin2\beta measured from the charmonium decay modes. Fit results directly constrain the (\bar\rho,\bar\eta)…
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…
Assuming the ${\bar D}^0, D^-, D^-_s$ and $B^+, B^0, B_s^0$ mesons belong to triplets of SU(3) flavor symmetry, we analyse the form factors in the semileptonic decays of these mesons. Both quark and meson mass differences are taken into…
We study the decays of $B_{(s)}$ mesons into light pseudoscalar mesons under the $SU(3)$ flavour symmetry. Assuming exact $SU(3)$ symmetry at the level of the amplitudes leads to a simple parameterization. Using the available experimental…
