We present the results for the Next-to-Leading Order effective hamiltonian for $\Delta S\!=\! 1$ decays, in presence of both QCD and QED corrections, and update the existing theoretical predictions for $\epsilon^\prime/\epsilon$. To appear…
Theoretical efforts to describe and explain the $\eta\to 3\pi$ decays reach far back in time. Even today, the convergence of the decay widths and some of the Dalitz plot parameters seems problematic in low energy QCD. In the framework of…
The recently developed 'Resummed' ChPT is illustrated on the case of pseudoscalar meson decay constants. We try to get an estimate of the eta decay constant, which is not well known from experiments, while using several ways including the…

The quenched approximation for QCD is, at present and in the foreseeable future, unavoidable in lattice calculations with realistic choices of the lattice spacing, volume and quark masses. In this talk, I review an analytic study of the…
We provide a brief summary of recent developments in QCD calculations in and beyond fixed-order perturbation theory, for observables in $e^{+}e^{-}$ annihilation as well as hadron collisions.
In this notes, we survey the recent developments on theory of generalized quasidisks. Based on the more or less standard techniques used earlier, we also provide some minor improvements on the recorded results. A few nature questions were…

I shortly review the present status of the theoretical calculations of eps'/eps and the comparison with the present experimental results. I discuss the role of higher order chiral corrections and in general of non-factorizable contributions…
The rare decay $B\to X_sl^+l^-$ provides excellent prospects for precision tests of Standard Model flavour dynamics. The process can be computed in perturbation theory with small uncertainty. However, in order to ensure a reliable…
This year lattice QCD has become very public. A new generation of simulations (including light dynamical quarks) have produced results which are in close agreement with many ``easy'' experimental quantities, and precise predictions for…

The Generalized Chiral Perturbation Theory enlarges the framework of the standard $\chi$PT, relaxing certain assumptions which do not necessarily follow from QCD or from experiment, and which are crucial for the usual formulation of the low…
