We study the scaling with the number of colors $N_c$ of the weak amplitudes mediating kaon mixing and decay, in the limit of light charm masses ($m_u=m_d=m_s=m_c$). The amplitudes are extracted directly on the lattice for $N_c = 3-7$ (with…

This review gives a critical assessment of the current state of lattice simulations of QCD thermodynamics and what it teaches us about hot hadronic matter. It outlines briefly lattice methods for studying QCD at nonzero temperature and zero…

The status of Lattice QCD is reviewed with respect to results that are relevant to Standard Model phenomenology. I argue that in a few simple cases all (or almost all) systematic errors from the lattice calculation are under control.…

Recent results are presented for (1) the charge asymmetry in semielectronic kaon decay; (2) the charge radius of the neutral kaon; (3) the decay Klong -> pi0 pi0 e+e-; (4) constraints on rho(CKM) from kaon decays; (5) lepton flavor…

Semileptonic $B_s \to K \ell \nu$ decays provide an alternative $b$-decay channel to determine the CKM matrix element $|V_{ub}|$, and to obtain a $R$-ratio to investigate lepton-flavor-universality violations. Results for the CKM matrix…

We review progress in lattice QCD, focusing on efforts to calculate weak matrix elements relevant for the determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix. Topics we discuss include light hadron spectrum and quark masses, CP-violation…

We present a lattice QCD calculation of the form factors and differential decay rates for semileptonic decays of the heavy-light mesons $B$ and $D$ to the final state $\pi l\nu$. The results are obtained with three methodological…

I review the status of lattice-QCD calculations relevant to quark flavor physics. The recent availability of physical-mass ensembles with large physical volumes generated by a growing number of lattice collaborations is an exciting…

Data indicate that $\Delta I=1/2$ transitions account for 4.5-4.7% of both CP conserving and CP violating $K \to 2\pi$ decays, as well as CP conserving radiative $K \to \pi\pi\gamma$ processes. Observed $K \to \pi\pi\gamma/\pi\pi$ branching…

The bag parameters and the decay constants of neutral B and K mesons were among the non-perturbative hadronic inputs to the classical CKM Unitarity Triangle Analysis. Thanks to the big amount of experimental information collected in the…

The rare kaon decay $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar{\nu}$ is an ideal process in which to search for signs of new physics and is the primary goal of the NA62 experiment at CERN. In this paper we report on a lattice QCD calculation of the long-distance…

The current status of rare kaon decay experiments is reviewed. New limits in the search for Lepton Flavor Violation are discussed, as are new measurements of the CKM matrix.

We calculate the kaon semileptonic form factor $f_+(0)$ from lattice QCD, working, for the first time, at the physical light-quark masses. We use gauge configurations generated by the MILC collaboration with $N_f=2+1+1$ flavors of sea…

We present results for form factors of semileptonic decays of $D$ and $B$ mesons in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD using the MILC gauge configurations. With an improved staggered action for light quarks, we successfully reduce the systematic error…

Kaon physics provides a unique opportunity to identify new flavour and CP violating interactions beyond the Standard Model (SM). In the SM, implied by the hierarchical structure of the CKM matrix and the GIM mechanism, flavour changing…

We examine effects of final state interactions (FSI) in kaon decays using a new scheme without the Omnes function, and show that while Delta I=1/2 rule is impossible to be explained in terms of FSI alone, $\epsilon'/\epsilon\sim 16.5\times…

We present a new calculation of the $D \rightarrow \pi, l \nu$ semileptonic form factor $f^{D \rightarrow \pi}_+(q^2)$ at $q^2 = 0$ based on HISQ charm and light valence quarks on MILC $N_f = 2 +1$ lattices. Using methods developed recently…

We use lattice QCD to fully determine the CKM matrix. |V_{cd}|, |V_{cs}|, |V_{ub}|, |V_{cb}| and |V_{us}| are, respectively, directly determined with recent lattice results for form factors of semileptonic D->pi l nu, D->K l nu, B->pi l nu,…

We report on the Lattice determination of the semileptonic form factors by lattice QCD. Comparison with the light-cone QCD sum rules are made for $\Btopi, \Btorho$ semileptonic decays.

We replace ordinary chiral SU(3)_L * SU(3)_R perturbation theory CHPT_3 by a new theory CHPT_sigma based on a low-energy expansion about an infrared fixed point alpha_IR for 3-flavor QCD. At alpha_IR, the quark condensate <bar{q}q>_vac =\=…
