The two most precise determinations of the CKM matrix element V_us are based on the analyses of leptonic and semileptonic kaon decays. These studies also rely on the lattice QCD calculations of two hadronic parameters, namely the ratio of…

We update the determination of |V_us| using semielectronic and semimuonic decays of K mesons. A modest improvement of 15% with respect to its present value is obtained for the error bar of this matrix element when we combine the four…
Using a technique that is not subject to first-order SU(3) symmetry breaking effects, we determine the $V_{us}$ element of the CKM matrix from data on semileptonic hyperon decays. We obtain $V_{us}$ =0.2250(27). This value is of similar…
We summarize the current status of the determination of the CKM matrix elements |V_ud| and |V_us|, which is at the precision frontier of CKM phenomenology. We also review recent progress on the study of charm (semi)leptonic decays, and the…
We discuss the recent progress in the study of semileptonic kaon and pion decays, including new experimental results, improved electroweak radiative corrections, form factor calculations and isospin-breaking effects. As a result, we obtain…
The status of the experimental determination of $V_{us}$ from $K_{\ell3}$ and $K_{\mu2}$ decays is reviewed. Factors currently limiting the precision of the evaluation of $V_{us}$ from kaon decays and prospects for new measurements within…
We review recent measurements of kaon decays and lifetimes for the determination of the CKM element Vus. Their relevance to CKM matrix unitarity is discussed.
A model-independent determination of the CKM matrix element V_{us} from five measured strangeness-changing hyperon semileptonic decays is performed. Flavor SU(3) symmetry breaking effects in the leading vector and axial-vector form factors…
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…
In the last few years a significant progress in the kaon physics has been made by three experiments - KLOE, KTeV and NA48. The reflection of their results to the extraction of the parameter Vus of the CKM matrix is presented. The obtained…
Recent measurements of kaon decays contributing to the determination of |V_us| are summarized, and up-to-date evaluations of |V_us|f+(0) and |V_us| are presented.
The recent experimental results on leptonic $D^+_{(s)}$ decays, semileptonic $D$ decays, determinations of decay constants and form factors, as well as extractions of $|V_{cd}|$ and $|V_{cs}|$ are briefly reviewed. Global analysis of all…

I will give a brief overview of the Standard Model theory inputs needed for the precise determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $V_{us}$ from semileptonic kaon decays, focusing on the long-distance electromagnetic…
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…
Numerous recent measurements of kaon decays are described, with an emphasis on results offering constraints on chiral perturbation theory calculations. An up-to-date estimate of |Vus|f+(0) based on semileptonic kaon decay rates is…
We review the status of hyperon semileptonic decays. The central issue is the $V_{us}$ element of the CKM matrix, where we obtain $V_{us}=0.2250 (27)$. This value is of similar precision, but higher, than the one derived from $K_{l3}$, and…
With the recent measurements of purely leptonic $D^+_{(s)}$ decays and semileptonic $D$ decays in conjunction with decay constants $f_{D^+_{(s)}}$ and form factors $f^{\pi(K)}_+(0)$ calculated in LQCD, we extract the magnitudes of $V_{cd}$…
