In this work we use the heavy-quark-light-diquark picture to study the semileptonic decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c+l+\bar{\nu}_l$ in the so-called hybrid scheme. Namely, we apply the heavy quark effective theory (HQET) for larger $q^2$…

Semileptonic $B$($B_s, B_c$) decays are investigated systematically in the light-cone QCD sum rules. Special emphasis is put on the LCSR calculation on weak form factors with an adequate chiral current correlator, which turns out to be…

We present updates for our nonperturbative lattice QCD calculations to determine semileptonic form factors for exclusive $B\to \pi\ell\nu$, $B\to D \ell\nu$, $B_s\to K\ell \nu$, and $B_s\to D_s\ell\nu$ decays. Our calculation is based on…

A new method is suggested to calculate the $B\to \pi\pi$ hadronic matrix elements from QCD light-cone sum rules. To leading order in $\alpha_s$ and $1/m_b$, the sum rule reproduces a factorizable matrix element, in accordance with the…

We extend the Standard Model (SM) analysis of Ref. [1], which was limited to light leptons in the final state, to the semileptonic $B \to D^* \tau \nu_\tau$ decay. By using quantities that can be analised without the knowledge of $\vert…

The $f^+$ form factors of the $B\to \pi$, $D\to \pi$ and $D\to K$ transitions are calculated from QCD light-cone sum rules (LCSR) and used to predict the widths and differential distributions of the exclusive semileptonic decays $B\to \pi…

In the past year, we calculated with lattice QCD three quantities that were unknown or poorly known. They are the $q^2$ dependence of the form factor in semileptonic $D\to Kl\nu$ decay, the decay constant of the $D$ meson, and the mass of…

The current status of lattice calculation of weak matrix elements for heavy quark systems is reviewed. After an assessment of systematic errors in present simulations, results for the B meson decay constant, the B-parameter B_B and…

We present a new study of the form factors for D -> K semileptonic decay from lattice QCD that allows us to compare the shape of the vector form factor to experiment and, for the first time, to extract V_cs using results from all…

We report on a recent computation of the form factors in semi-leptonic decays of the $\mathrm{B}_\mathrm{s}$ using Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET) formalism applied on the lattice. The connection of the form factors with the 2-point and…

Using limits of large energy effective theory and heavy quark effective theory we propose a simple parametrization of the heavy to light H to V semileptonic form factors. Then we reconsider D to V l nu_l decays within a model which combines…

Relations between the form factors that parametrize the hadronic matrix elements, in spectator decays of heavy mesons, have been derived by Stech within the constituent quark model. In here, we examine these relations using a slightly…

We compute for the first time the next-to-leading-order QCD corrections to the $\bar B_{(s)} \to D_{(s)}^{(\ast)}$ form factors at large hadronic recoil. Both the charm-quark-mass and the strange-quark-mass dependent pieces can generate the…

We present a new calculation of the B->pi form-factor f_+, relevant for the measurement of |V_{ub}| from semileptonic B->pi transitions, from QCD sum rules on the light-cone. The new element is the calculation of radiative corrections to…

Semileptonic heavy -> heavy and heavy -> light meson transitions are studied as a phenomenological application of a heavy-quark limit of Dyson-Schwinger equations. Employing two parameters: E, the difference between the mass of the heavy…

New sum rules for $B\to \pi,K $ and $B\to \rho,K^*$ form factors are derived from the correlation functions expanded near the light-cone in terms of B-meson distribution amplitudes. The contributions of quark-antiquark and…
