In order to determine the ratio of CKM matrix elements |V_{ub}/V_{cb}| (and |V_{ub}|), we propose a new model-independent method based on the heavy quark effective theory, which is theoretically described by the phase space factor and the…

To extract the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix element $|V_{ub}|$, we have re-analyzed all the available inputs (data and theory) on the $B\to\pi l\nu$ decays including the newly available inputs on the form-factors from light cone…

I review some topics in the production and decays of heavy flavours that are relevant for collider physics. In particular, I discuss the present status and some recent progress related to masses, parton densities and fragmentation functions…

In this talk a review on the exclusive determination of Vcb is presented. Updated values of this quantity obtained from B->Dlnu and B->D*lnu decays are given. New measurements from B-factories are expected to come soon and the main…

I briefly review the description of inclusive heavy hadron decays based on the inverse heavy quark mass expansion. In particular, I consider the transition $B \to X_u \ell \nu$ and the problem of extracting $V_{ub}$, mainly as far as the…

SU(3) flavor dependence of the leading and subleading parameters appeared in the heavy quark expansion of the heavy-light mesons are systematically analyzed by using QCD sum rules.

Stringent relations between the $B^{(*)} \to D^{(*)} $ form factors exist in the heavy quark limit and the leading symmetry breaking corrections are known. We reconsider their uncertainty and role in the analysis of recent Belle data for…

A new framework of heavy quark effective field theory (HQEFT) is studied and compared with the usual heavy quark effective theory (HQET). $|V_{ub}|$, $|V_{cb}|$ and heavy meson decay constants are extracted in the new framework. HQEFT can…

Heavy flavour physics is well described by the Standard Model with the exception of some measurements which could be pointing to new physics. We briefly review status and prospects of $R(D^{(\ast)})$ and $R(K^{(\ast)})$ anomalies and also…

More precise extractions on the two important CKM matrix elements $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$ are presented up to $1/m_Q^2$ corrections based on the complete heavy quark effective field theory (HQEFT) of QCD. The HQEFT as a large component…

I review the status of the modern theoretical approach to weak decays of heavy flavor hadrons based on the 1/m_Q expansion in QCD. The qualitative features are explained and the subtleties in simultaneously incorporating perturbative and…

Recent advances in improving extractions of |Vcb| and m_b from spectra of semileptonic inclusive B decay are reported. Results of a general moment analysis of the lepton energy spectrum and the hadronic invariant mass spectrum are…

For a long time there have been active discussions about the sizable differences between $|V_{ub}|_{\rm incl}$ \& $|V_{ub}|_{\rm excl}$. However, the real $|V_{ub}|_{\rm incl}$ might be smaller than usually stated. The connection of the…

In the last decade, the LEP and SLD experiments played a central role in the study of B hadrons (hadrons containing a b quark). New B hadrons have been observed ($B^0_s$, \Lambda_b$, $\Xi_b$ and $B^{**}$) and their production and decay…

The determinations of |Vcb| and |Vub| from semileptonic B decays are reviewed with a critical discussion of the theoretical uncertainties and concentrating on recent developments. Future prospects and limitations are also discussed.

We summarize selected up-to-date results related to semileptonic $B$ meson decays, namely results on the exclusive determination of the parameter $|V_{cb}|$ of the CKM matrix, on the inclusive determination of $|V_{ub}|$, and on…

The combined large N_c and heavy quark limit for baryons containing a single heavy quark is discussed. The combined large N_c and heavy quark expansion of the heavy quark bilinear operators is obtained. In the combined expansion the…

I report on recent developments in the heavy-quark effective theory and its application to $B$ meson decays. The parameters of the effective theory, the spin-flavor symmetry limit, and the leading symmetry-breaking corrections to it are…

An introduction to the heavy quark effective theory and its symmetries is given. Some implications of the heavy quark spin and flavor symmetries are discussed. Recent results on fragmentation to quarkonium states are reviewed.

The Heavy Quark Expansion (HQE) is the major tool to perform calculations for inclusive semileptonic $B\to X_cl\bar{\nu}$ and, consequently, for precision determinations of the CKM matrix element $V_{cb}$. To further improve precision, we…
