In the first part of the talk, I review what we know (or rather do not know) about the structure of the QCD vacuum in the presence of strange quarks. Chiral perturbation theory allows to study reactions of pions and kaons and to further…
We look at two methods to determine the weak phases $\phi_2$ and $\phi_3$ from $B \to \pi\pi$ and $K\pi$ decays within the perturbative QCD approach. We obtain quite interesting bounds on $\phi_2$ and $\phi_3$ from experimental measurements…
We look at two methods to determine the weak phases $\phi_2$ and $\phi_3$ from $B \to \pi\pi$ and $K\pi$ decays within the perturbative QCD approach. We obtain quite interesting bounds on $\phi_2$ and $\phi_3$ from recent experimental…
Incorporating its most relevant global symmetry, chiral effective models are aimed at investigating, in a simplified framework, important aspects of the yet unsolved QCD. We review some recent results obtained in these models on the…
We present an approach for computing the real parts of the nonleptonic B to DP and B to D-bar P (P=K,pi) decay amplitudes by using lattice QCD methods. While it remains very challenging to calculate the imaginary parts of these matrix…
Measurement of the $\gamma 3\pi$ process has revealed a possible conflict with what should be a solid prediction generated by the chiral anomaly. We show that inclusion of appropirate energy-momentum dependence in the matrix element reduces…
We carry out a systematic investigation of twist-two spin dependent structure functions of the nucleon within the framework of the chiral quark soliton model (CQSM) by paying special attention to the role of chiral symmetry of QCD. We…
We suggest a parameterization of the matrix element for $\bar{B}^0\to D^{*+}\omega\pi^-$ decay using kinematic variables convenient for experimental analysis. The contributions of intermediate $\omega\pi$- and $D^{**}$-states up to spin 3…
We review recent developments in exploring possible precursory phenomena of partial restoration of chiral symmetry in nuclear medium by examining the spectral function in the scalar channel. We emphasize that the wave function…
We present a new calculation of long-distance contributions to the K --> pi pi amplitudes using the 1/N_c expansion within the framework of chiral perturbation theory. Along these lines we compute the chiral loop corrections to the…
We investigate the possibility of scalar interaction affecting the forward backward asymmetry in the decay mode $B\to K \mu^+ \mu^-$. Using the scalar contribution and advocating Cheng-Sher type ansatz we obtain sizable forward backward…
We present a complete analysis of K -> 3 pi gamma decays to O(p^4) in the low-energy expansion of the Standard Model. We employ the notion of "generalized bremsstrahlung" to take full advantage of experimental information on the…
We describe a new method for obtaining the CP phase alpha via measurements of B_{d,s} -> K(*) Kbar(*) decays. This method is particularly appropriate for hadron colliders since some of the branching ratios are small [O(10^{-6})], and since…
We calculate the decay $\eta\to3\pi$ at next-to-next-to-leading order or order $p^6$ in Chiral Perturbation Theory. The corrections are somewhat larger than was indicated by dispersive estimates. We present numerical results for the Dalitz…
The reasons why a considerable effort is made to resolve the low energy structure of QCD are discussed. The effective field theory used for this purpose is illustrated with the recent progress made in the predictions for pipi scattering and…
The decays tau -> 3 pi + nu(tau) are analyzed at one loop order in the framework of Generalized Chiral Perturbation Theory, in order to test the sensitivity to the size of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking parameters, contained in the…
In this review I discuss the role of chiral extrapolations for the determination of several phenomenologically relevant quantities, including light quark masses, meson decay constants and the axial charge of the nucleon. In particular, I…
We review briefly the problem of the discrete ambiguities in the determination of the CKM angles, by classifying them into different categories. We then focus on cos(2beta) and the extraction of alpha using QCD factorization.
We properly define off-shell $K\to\pi$ transition amplitudes and use them to extract information for on-shell $K\to\pi\pi$ amplitudes within Chiral Perturbation Theory. At order $p^2$ in the chiral expansion all three parameters of weak…
Constraints on the CKM angle \gamma are presented from GLW, ADS, and GGSZ analyses of B+- -> D K+- at the LHCb experiment. The branching fractions of B0 -> D0bar K+ \pi- and Bs -> D0bar K- \pi+ are also reported, measured relative to the…
