The lifetime of the $tau$-lepton is measured using the process $e^+e^-rightarrowtau^+tau^-$, where both $tau$-leptons decay to $3pi u_tau$. The result for the mean lifetime, based on $711,mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of data collected with the Belle detector at the $Upsilon(4S)$ resonance and $60,mathrm{MeV}$ below, is $tau = (290.17 pm 0.53(mathrm{stat.}) pm 0.33(mathrm{syst.}))cdot10^{-15},mathrm{s}$. The first measurement of the lifetime difference between $tau^+$ and $tau^-$ is performed. The upper limit on the relative lifetime difference between positive and negative $tau$-leptons is $|Deltatau| / tau < 7.0 times 10^{-3}$ at 90% CL.

The reconstruction of tau-pair production, $e^{+}e^{-} to tau^{+}tau^{-}$, from the subsequent 3-prong ($tau^{+} rightarrow pi^{+} pi^{-} pi^{+} bar{ u}_{tau}$) and 1-prong ($tau^{-} to ell^{-} bar{ u}_{ell} u_{tau}$, $tau^{-} to h^{-} u_{tau}$ or $tau^{-} to pi^{-} pi^0 u_{tau}$) decays, is presented using 8.8 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data of Belle II at the center-of-mass energy $sqrt{s} = m_{Upsilon(4S)}$. The pseudomass technique developed by the ARGUS experiment is used to measure the $tau$-lepton mass $m_{tau}$ in the 3-prong $tau^{+} to pi^{+} pi^{-} pi^{+} bar{ u}_{tau} $ decay, resulting in $m_{tau} = 1777.28 pm 0.75~{rm (stat.)} pm 0.33 ~{rm (sys.)}~{rm{MeV}/rm{c}^2}$.

Charged lepton flavor violation is forbidden in the Standard Model but possible in several new physics scenarios. In many of these models, the radiative decays $tau^{pm}rightarrowell^{pm}gamma$ ($ell=e,mu$) are predicted to have a sizeable probability, making them particularly interesting channels to search at various experiments. An updated search via $tau^{pm}rightarrowell^{pm}gamma$ using full data of the Belle experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 988 fb$^{-1}$, is reported for charged lepton flavor violation. No significant excess over background predictions from the Standard Model is observed, and the upper limits on the branching fractions, $mathcal{B}(tau^{pm}rightarrow mu^{pm}gamma)$ $leq$ $4.2times10^{-8}$ and $mathcal{B}(tau^{pm}rightarrow e^{pm}gamma)$ $leq$ $5.6times10^{-8}$, are set at 90% confidence level.
We search for lepton-number- and baryon-number-violating decays $tau^{-}tooverline{p}e^{+}e^{-}$, $pe^{-}e^{-}$, $overline{p}e^{+}mu^{-}$, $overline{p}e^{-}mu^{+}$, $overline{p}mu^{+}mu^{-}$, and $pmu^{-}mu^{-}$ using 921 fb$^{-1}$ of data, equivalent to $(841pm12)times 10^6$ $tau^{+}tau^{-}$ events, recorded with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider. In the absence of a signal, $90%$ confidence-level upper limits are set on the branching fractions of these decays in the range $(1.8$-$4.0)times 10^{-8}$. We set the worlds first limits on the first four channels and improve the existing limits by an order of magnitude for the last two channels.

With the full data sample of $772 times 10^6$ $B{bar B}$ pairs recorded by the Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider, the decay $bar{B} rightarrow D^* tau^- bar{ u}_tau$ is studied with the hadronic $tau$ decays $tau^- rightarrow pi^- u_tau$ and $tau^- rightarrow rho^- u_tau$. The $tau$ polarization $P_tau(D^*)$ in two-body hadronic $tau$ decays is measured, as well as the ratio of the branching fractions $R(D^{*}) = mathcal{B}(bar {B} rightarrow D^* tau^- bar{ u}_tau) / mathcal{B}(bar{B} rightarrow D^* ell^- bar{ u}_ell)$, where $ell^-$ denotes an electron or a muon. Our results, $P_tau(D^*) = -0.38 pm 0.51 {rm (stat)} ^{+0.21}_{-0.16} {rm (syst)}$ and $R(D^*) = 0.270 pm 0.035{rm (stat)} ^{+0.028}_{-0.025}{rm (syst)}$, are consistent with the theoretical predictions of the Standard Model. The polarization values of $P_tau(D^*) > +0.5$ are excluded at the 90% confidence level.

The Belle Collaboration presented three recent Belle analyses: The search for $Brightarrow l ugamma$ ($l = e, mu$) with improved hadronic tagging, the search for $Brightarrow mu u_mu$ with inclusive tagging and the test of lepton universality in $Brightarrow K^*ll$ ($l = e, mu$) decays.
