QCD sum rules for decay constants of heavy mesons with $u$ or $d$ quark yield for $B$ mesons much less isospin breaking than lattice QCD but good agreement for $D$ mesons.
We point out subtleties in the previous sum rule calculations of the $\pi NN$ coupling associated with using either the PV or the PS coupling schemes in modeling the phenomenological side. We propose a sum rule which is independent of the…
Using the general form of the baryon currents, we calculate the meson-baryon coupling constants and the F/D ratio within the framework of light cone QCD sum rules in the SU(3) flavor symmetry limit. The dependence of the results on the…
I discuss the calculation of the direct CP-asymmetry in $D\to \pi^+\pi^-$ and $D\to K^+K^- $ decays with the method of QCD light-cone sum rules. The main result is the upper limit for the difference of the two asymmetries $\left|\Delta…
QCD sum rules are used to calculate the $q^2$ dependence of the $\pi NN$ coupling $g_{\pi NN} (q^2)$ in the spacelike region $0.5 \ {\mbox{GeV}}^2 \lesssim q^2 \lesssim 1.5\ {\mbox{GeV}}^2$. We study the Borel sum rule for the three point…

We show that in the context of QCD sum rules a strong (anti-) correlation between the $b$-quark mass $m_b$ and the $B$-meson's decay constant $f_B$ emerges: $\delta f_B/f_B\approx -8 \delta m_b/m_b.$ This observation allows us to derive a…
We sketch a recent sum-rule extraction of the decay constants of the heavy pseudoscalar mesons D, D_s, B, and B_s from the two-point correlator of heavy-light pseudoscalar currents [1]. Our main emphasis lies on the control over all the…
We investigate f_0-sigma mixing in the framework of light cone QCD sum rules and by employing the experimental results about the decay widths and the masses of these scalar mesons we estimate the scalar mixing angle by using sigma meson…
The relative magnitude of the decay constants of the pseudoscalar and vector beauty mesons poses (in contrast to the case of charmed mesons) a long-standing puzzle. We revisit this problem within the framework of our recent improvements of…
The method of QCD sum rules has proven to be particularly useful in heavy quark physics, where a small distance scale is provided by the inverse heavy quark mass. We present two new examples for the application of this method to B-physics:…
The strong coupling constants $g_{{\Sigma_{Q}\Lambda_{Q}\pi}}$ ($Q=b$ and $c$) are studied in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules using the most general form of the baryonic currents. The predicted coupling constants are used to…

A sum rule relation is proposed for direct CP asymmetries in $B\to K\pi$ decays. Leading terms are identical in the isospin symmetry limit, while subleading terms are equal in the flavor SU(3) and heavy quark limits. The sum rule predicts…
