We report on the status of the Fermilab-MILC calculation of the form factor f_+^{K pi}(0), needed to extract the CKM matrix element |V_{us}| from experimental data on K semileptonic decays. The HISQ formulation is used in the simulations…

Standard lattice calculations in flavour physics or in studies of hadronic structure are based on the evaluation of matrix elements of local composite operators between hadronic states or the vacuum. In this talk I discuss developments…

We calculate the complete NNLO QCD corrections to the charm contribution of the rare decay K+ -> pi+ nu nu-bar. We encounter several new features, which were absent in lower orders. We discuss them in detail and present the results for the…

The amplitudes of $\pi$-meson decays are calculated in a relativistic nonperturbative quark model which assumes that mesons are made of a quark antiquark pair and of a scalar neutral component representing the contribution of the…

I : Chiral Perturbation Theory is introduced and its applications to semileptonic and nonleptonic kaon decays are discussed. II: The method of large $N_c$ is used to calculate $K\to\pi\pi$ nonleptonic matrix elements, in particular the…

We use the new symmetries in the heavy quark limit to calculate the exclusive B-decays $B \rightarrow K^i \psi $ where $K^i$ are higher resonances of K-meson. We then estimate the long distance contributions to $B \rightarrow K^i \gamma $…

We present a status report on our study of long-distance contributions to the decay amplitudes A(K^0 --> pi pi, I) in the framework of the 1/N expansion. We argue that a modified prescription for the identification of meson momenta in the…

In this talk, we present our recent work on the $K\ra\pi \bar{l} l$ decays in a combined framework of chiral perturbation theory and Large--$N_c$ QCD under the dominance of a minimal narrow resonance structure. The proposed description…

The electromagnetic contribution to the $K^+ - K^0$ mass difference is calculated in the $1/N_c$ approach including the $SU(3)$ breaking contributions due to a non-zero strange quark mass. The short-distance contribution can be…

We suggest to use operator product expansion and QCD sum rule techniques to estimate the long-distance contribution to the amplitude of the exclusive rare decay $B\to K^* \gamma$. In contrast to a phenomenological description in terms of…

We reconsider the dispersive evaluation of the weak matrix elements <2pi_{I=2}|Q_{7,8}|K0> in the chiral limit. The perturbative matching is accomplished fully within the scheme dependence used in the two loop weak OPE calculations. The…

We calculate the branching ratios and CP asymmetries of the $B\to \phi K$ decays using perturbative QCD approach, which includes $k_T$ and threshold resummations. Our results of branching ratios are consistent with the experimental data and…

We report the first calculation using physical light-quark masses of the electromagnetic form factor $V(z)$ describing the long-distance contributions to the $K^+\to\pi^+\ell^+\ell^-$ decay amplitude. The calculation is performed on a 2+1…

The pion mass difference generates a pronounced cusp in K --> 3 pi decays, the strength of which is related to the pi pi S-wave scattering lengths. We apply an effective field theory framework developed earlier to evaluate the amplitudes…

Effective \Delta S=1 four fermion operators involving left- and right-handed currents are relevant in left-right gauge extensions of the standard model and scalar extension of the Yukawa sector. They induce K to \pi\pi\ decays which are…

We consider the exclusive $P_{\ell 4}$ decays, $P\to (P_1P_2)_V\ell \nu_{\ell}$, where the subindex $V$ means that the invariant mass of the pseudoscalar pair is taken within a small window around the mass of the vector meson $V$. Pole…

We analyze the short and long distance contributions to inclusive $B \rightarrow X_d \gamma$ decay, paying particular attention to the dependence on the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa parameter $V_{td}$. We discuss penguin diagrams with internal…

We study the reactions $K \rightarrow \pi \pi \nu \overline{\nu}$ within the minimal standard model. We use isospin symmetry to relate the matrix elements to the form factors measured in $K_{\ell 4}$. We argue that these modes are short…

Using the method of QCD light-cone sum rules, we calculate the $B \to \pi\pi$ hadronic matrix elements with annihilation topology. We obtain a finite result, including the related strong phase. Numerically, the annihilation effects in $B\to…

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…
