A search for the $it{Xi}^{++}_{cc}$ baryon through the $it{Xi}^{++}_{cc} rightarrow D^{+} p K^{-} pi^{+}$ decay is performed with a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.7 $mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ recorded by the LHCb experiment in $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. No significant signal is observed in the mass range from the kinematic threshold of the decay to 3800 $mathrm{MeV}/c^{2}$. An upper limit is set on the ratio of branching fractions $mathcal{R} = frac{mathcal{B}(it{Xi}^{++}_{cc} rightarrow D^{+} p K^{-} pi^{+})}{mathcal{B}(it{Xi}^{++}_{cc} rightarrow Lambda^{+}_{c} K^{-} pi^{+}pi^{+})}$ with $mathcal{R} < 1.7 hspace{2pt} (2.1) times 10^{-2}$ at the 90% (95%) confidence level at the known mass of the $it{Xi}^{++}_{cc}$ state.

A search is made for the highly-suppressed B meson decays $B^{+}rightarrow K^{+}K^{+}pi^{-}$ and $B^{+}rightarrow pi^{+}pi^{+}K^{-}$ using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 $fb^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. No evidence is found for the decays, and upper limits at 90% confidence level are determined to be $mathcal{B}(B^{+}rightarrow K^{+}K^{+}pi^{-}) < 1.1times 10^{-8}$ and $mathcal{B}(B^{+}rightarrow pi^{+}pi^{+}K^{-}) < 4.6times 10^{-8}$.
The branching fractions of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $D^+rightarrow K^-K^+K^+$, $D^+rightarrow pi^-pi^+K^+$ and $D^+_srightarrowpi^-K^+K^+$ are measured using the decays $D^+rightarrow K^-pi^+pi^+$ and $D^+_srightarrow K^-K^+pi^+$ as normalisation channels. The measurements are performed using proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.0 fb$^{-1}$. The results are begin{align} frac {mathcal{B}(D^+rightarrow K^-K^+K^+)} {mathcal{B}(D^+rightarrow K^-pi^+pi^+)}& = (6.541 pm 0.025 pm 0.042) times 10^{-4}, onumber frac {mathcal{B}(D^+rightarrow pi^-pi^+K^+)} {mathcal{B}(D^+rightarrow K^-pi^+pi^+)}& = (5.231 pm 0.009 pm 0.023) times 10^{-3}, onumber frac {mathcal{B}(D^+_srightarrowpi^-K^+K^+)} {mathcal{B}(D^+_srightarrow K^-K^+pi^+)}& = (2.372 pm 0.024 pm 0.025) times 10^{-3}, onumber end{align} where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. These are the most precise measurements up to date.
A search for $CP$ violation in the Cabibbo-suppressed $D^0 rightarrow K^+ K^- pi^+ pi^-$ decay mode is performed using an amplitude analysis. The measurement uses a sample of $pp$ collisions recorded by the LHCb experiment during 2011 and 2012, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$. The $D^0$ mesons are reconstructed from semileptonic $b$-hadron decays into $D^0mu^- X$ final states. The selected sample contains more than 160000 signal decays, allowing the most precise amplitude modelling of this $D^0$ decay to date. The obtained amplitude model is used to perform the search for $CP$ violation. The result is compatible with $CP$ symmetry, with a sensitivity ranging from 1% to 15% depending on the amplitude considered.
Time-integrated $CP$ asymmetries in $D^0$ decays to the final states $K^- K^+$ and $pi^- pi^+$ are measured using proton-proton collisions corresponding to $3mathrm{,fb}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected at centre-of-mass energies of $7mathrm{,Tekern -0.1em V}$ and $8mathrm{,Tekern -0.1em V}$. The $D^0$ mesons are produced in semileptonic $b$-hadron decays, where the charge of the accompanying muon is used to determine the initial flavour of the charm meson. The difference in $CP$ asymmetries between the two final states is measured to be begin{align} Delta A_{CP} = A_{CP}(K^-K^+)-A_{CP}(pi^-pi^+) = (+0.14 pm 0.16mathrm{,(stat)} pm 0.08mathrm{,(syst)})% . onumber end{align} A measurement of $A_{CP}(K^-K^+)$ is obtained assuming negligible $CP$ violation in charm mixing and in Cabibbo-favoured $D$ decays. It is found to be begin{align} A_{CP}(K^-K^+) = (-0.06 pm 0.15mathrm{,(stat)} pm 0.10mathrm{,(syst)}) % , onumber end{align} where the correlation coefficient between $Delta A_{CP}$ and $A_{CP}(K^-K^+)$ is $rho=0.28$. By combining these results, the $CP$ asymmetry in the $D^0rightarrowpi^-pi^+$ channel is $A_{CP}(pi^-pi^+)=(-0.20pm0.19mathrm{,(stat)}pm0.10mathrm{,(syst)})%$.
