Results from recent lattice calculations of the decay constants $f_B$ and $f_D$ are reviewed. A discussion of the methods currently used is presented, together with an outline of the various systematic effects involved.
I review the status of lattice simulations relevant for phenomenological studies of B-physics. Results for much-studied quantities such as f_B, B_B and form-factors for semileptonic decays are presented as well as those for quantities which…
The present status of lattice calculations of f_B, B_B and SU(3) flavour breaking ratios such as f_Bs/f_B is reviewed. Particular attention is devoted to systematic uncertainties, such as those arising from the lack of simulation data for…
Lattice calculation of $B\to D^{(*)}\ell\bar\nu$ decay form factors is now available from multiple lattice collaborations for both zero-recoil limit and non-zero recoil kinematics. Yet, there are a number of challenges we face to better…
We summarize the present status of lattice gauge theory computations of the leptonic decay constants $f_D$ and $f_B$. The various sources of systematic errors are explained in a manner easily understood by the non--expert. The results…
In lattice QCD, obtaining properties of heavy-light mesons has been easier said than done. Focusing on the $B$ meson's decay constant, it is argued that towards the end of 1997 the last obstacles were removed, at least in the quenched…
A review of the status of lattice simulations in particle physics phenomenology is presented. Recent computations of leptonic decay constants of light and heavy mesons, and of the Isgur-Wise function relevant for semi-leptonic decays of…
In recent years, we used lattice QCD to calculate some 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 leptonic decay constants of the $D^+$ and $D_s$…
The status of lattice calculations for heavy quark systems is reviewed, focussing on weak matrix elements for leptonic and semi-leptonic decays of heavy mesons. After an assessment of the main systematic errors, results for the decay…
We review recent measurements of leptonic $D_s$-meson decays performed by Belle and BaBar collaborations. Described measurements enable experimental extraction of the $D_s$-meson decay constant which can be compared with lattice QCD…
After a pedagogical introduction to the calculation of weak matrix elements on the lattice, I review some of the lattice's most recent predictions concerning the weak decays of $B$-mesons. Amongst the topics covered are the determinations…
The status of lattice calculations of heavy-light decay constants and of the $B$ parameter $B_B$ is reviewed. After describing the lattice approach to heavy quark systems, the main results are discussed, with special emphasis on the…
We review recent progress in the calculation of the decay constants $f_{D}$ and $f_{D_s}$ from lattice QCD. We focus particularly on simulations with $N_f=2+1$ and $N_f=2+1+1$ and simulations with close to physical light quark masses.
This paper reviews recent progress of lattice gauge theory determinations of semileptonic B and D decay form factors. These determinations are important in extracting the remaining CKM matrix elements.
The status of lattice calculations of heavy quark phenomenology is reviewed. Particular emphasis is placed on the understanding and control of the calculational uncertainties. The ensuing implications for constraining the CKM matrix…
Computational and theoretical developments in lattice QCD calculations of B and D mesons are surveyed. Several topical examples are given: new ideas for calculating the HQET parameters \bar{\Lambda} and \lambda_1; form factors needed to…
Capitalizing on recent advances in lattice QCD, we present a calculation of the leptonic decay constants f_{B_s} and f_{D_s} that includes effects of one strange sea quark and two light sea quarks. The discretization errors of improved…
Heavy-meson semileptonic decays calculations on the lattice are reviewed. The focus is upon obtaining reliable matrix elements. Errors that depend upon the lattice spacing, $a$, are an important source of systematic error. Full $O(a)$…
We report on a two-flavour lattice QCD study of the D_s and D_s^* leptonic decays parameterized by the decay constants f_{D_s} and f_{D_s^*}. As the phenomenology in the D_s sector seems very promising in the next years with the experiments…
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…
