In this paper, we calculate the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $|V_{ub}|$ by the semileptonic decay $B^+\to \omega\ell^+\nu$. For the transition form factors (TFFs) $A_1(q^2)$, $A_2(q^2)$, and $V(q^2)$ of $B^+\to \omega$, we…

B decay sum rules relate exclusive B semileptonic decay matrix elements to forward B-meson matrix elements of operators in HQET. At leading order the operators that occur are the b-quark kinetic energy $\lambda_1$ and chromomagnetic energy…

We summarize recent progress in the theory of exclusive rare and semileptonic B decays, focusing on model-independent results. The heavy-to-light form factors parameterizing these decays admit a model-independent description in two distinct…

Hadronic matrix elements of the vector, axial-vector and tensor currents relevant for exclusive rare decays $B\to(\pi,\rho,K,K^*)\,l^+l^-$ induced by the quark transition $b\to d,s$ are analysed using dispersion formulation of the…

We discuss some selected topics in rare B decays in the context of the standard model and compare theoretical estimates with available data. Salient features of the perturbative-QCD and power corrections in the decay rate for $B \to X_s +…

The rare decays $B^0 \to K^{*0} \mu^+ \mu^-$ and $B_s \to \phi \mu^+ \mu^-$ are now being observed with enough precision to test Standard Model predictions. A full understanding of these decays requires accurate determinations of the…

In this write-up we review and update our recent lattice QCD calculation of $B \to K^*$, $B_s \to \phi$, and $B_s \to K^*$ form factors [arXiv:1310.3722]. These unquenched calculations, performed in the low-recoil kinematic regime, provide…

We present some applications of the unitarity-based Dispersion Matrix (DM) approach to the extraction of the CKM matrix element $|V_{cb}|$ from the experimental data on the exclusive $B_{(s)} \to D_{(s)}^{(*)} \ell \nu_\ell$ decays. The DM…

A new method is suggested to calculate the $B\to \pi\pi$ hadronic matrix elements from QCD light-cone sum rules. To leading order in $\alpha_s$ and $1/m_b$, the sum rule reproduces a factorizable matrix element, in accordance with the…

Light-cone sum rules have proved to be very useful in calculating hadronic matrix elements for exclusive processes. I present recent applications of this method to the pion electromagnetic form factor and to the form factors of $\gamma^*…

We present the results of a numerical calculation of the $B\to K^* \gamma$ form factors. The results have been obtained by studying the relevant correlation functions at $\beta=6.0$, on an $18^3 \times 64$ lattice, using the ${\rm…

Lattice Monte Carlo simulations now include the effects of 2 light sea quarks and 1 strange sea quark through the use of an improved staggered fermion action. Consequently, results important to phenomenology are free of the approximate 10%…

Taking into account the gluon correction contributions to the correlation function, the form factors relevant to the rare $B_c \rar X \nu\bar{\nu}$ decays are calculated in the framework of the three point QCD sum rules, where $X$ stands…

An explicit relativistic light-front quark model is presented which gives the momentum transfer dependent form factors of weak hadronic currents among heavy pseudoscalar and vector mesons in the whole accessible kinematic region $ 0\leq q^2…

We report a theoretical analysis of the exclusive non-leptonic decays of B mesons into two light mesons,some of which have been measured recently by the CLEO collaboration. Our analysis is carried out in the context of an effective…

Assuming simple properties of the spectator particle in weak decays the form factors of hadronic current matrix elements are shown to be related to a single universal function. The Isgur-Wise result for heavy-to-heavy transitions follows as…

I give an overview of the QCD sum rule predictions for the form factors of B-meson weak decays to light hadrons (and leptons)

Methods are described in the framework of light-cone expansion which allow one to determine the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements |V_ub| and |V_cb| from measurements of the differential decay rates as a function of the scaling…

A new method for computing hadronic effects on electroweak radiative corrections to low-energy weak interaction semileptonic processes is described. It employs high order perturbative QCD results originally derived for the Bjorken sum rule…

We examine the semileptonic $B \to D^{(*)} \ell \nu_\ell$ and $B \to \pi \ell \nu_\ell$ decays adopting the unitarity-based Dispersive Matrix (DM) method, which allows to determine the shape of the relevant hadronic form factors (FFs) in…
