We show that, under a reasonable "smoothness" hypothesis, it is possible to extract informations on the amplitude and phase of two-body non-leptonic weak decay matrix elements from the study of Euclidean correlation functions in lattice…
We show that, under reasonable hypotheses, it is possible to study two-body non-leptonic weak decays in numerical simulations of lattice QCD. By assuming that final-state interactions are dominated by the nearby resonances and that the…
Non-leptonic kaon decays are often described through an effective chiral weak Hamiltonian, whose couplings ("low-energy constants") encode all non-perturbative QCD physics. It has recently been suggested that these low-energy constants…
This review contains an overview of strong interaction effects in weak decays starting with a historical introduction. It contains a short overview of semileptonic decays and their relevance for measuring CKM matrix elements. The main part…
In this talk we discuss finite-volume computations of two-body hadronic decays below the inelastic threshold (e.g. $K\to\pi\pi$ decays). In particular we show how the relation between finite-volume matrix elements and physical amplitudes,…
This work presents a determination of potential short-distance contributions to the unphysical $\pi^-\rightarrow\pi^+ e^- e^-$ decay through lattice QCD calculations. The hadronic contributions to the transition amplitude are described by…
We derive relations between finite-volume matrix elements and infinite-volume decay amplitudes, for processes with three spinless, degenerate and either identical or non-identical particles in the final state. This generalizes the…
We derive the relations necessary for the extraction of matrix elements of multi-hadron systems from finite-volume QCD calculations. We focus on systems of $n \ge 2$ weakly interacting identical particles without spin. These results will be…
The CKM matrix element $|V_{us}|$ can be extracted from the experimental measurement of semileptonic $K\to\pi$ decays. The determination depends on theory input for the corresponding vector form factor in QCD. We present a preliminary…
I review lattice calculations of quantities that involve light quarks, including light quark masses, the vector form factor f_+(0) needed for semileptonic kaon decays, and kaon mixing. Results for most of these quantities are now available…
Weak $B^-\rightarrow D^0, \pi^0$ and $D^-\rightarrow {K}^0, \pi^0$ transition form factors are described in both the space- and time-like momentum transfer regions, within a constituent-quark model. Neutrino-meson scattering and…
We discuss finite-volume computations of two-body hadronic decays below the inelastic threshold (e.g. $K\to\pi\pi$ decays). The relation between finite-volume matrix elements and physical amplitudes, recently derived by Lellouch and…
We report on some recent progress made in understanding weak matrix elements of mesons in the context of the next-to-leading order of the large-Nc approximation to QCD. Specifically, we first use the example of the weak contributions to the…
The coupling constants of the order $p^2$ low-energy weak effective lagrangian can be determined from the $K\to\pi$ and $K\to 0$ weak matrix elements, choosing degenerate quark masses for the first of these. However, for typical values of…
In the heavy-quark limit, the hadronic matrix elements entering nonleptonic $B$-meson decays into two light mesons can be calculated from first principles including ``nonfactorizable'' strong-interaction corrections. The $B\to\pi K,\pi\pi$…
An overview is presented about old and recent methods to compute the $K\to \pi \pi$ decay amplitude.
A relation is presented between single-hadron long-range matrix elements defined in a finite Euclidean spacetime, and the corresponding infinite-volume Minkowski amplitudes. This relation is valid in the kinematic region where any number of…
In this talk I describe work on computing non-leptonic matrix elements consistently with both long and short distance contributions included. On the simpler example of the $\pi^+$-$\pi^0$ mass difference I explain in detail the matching…
In Ref. [1], a method was proposed to calculate QED corrections to hadronic self energies from lattice QCD without power-law finite-volume errors. In this paper, we extend the method to processes which occur at second-order in the weak…
Standard lattice calculations in kaon physics are based on the evaluation of matrix elements of local operators between two single-hadron states or a single-hadron state and the vacuum. Recent progress in lattice QCD has gone beyond these…
