We discuss the impact of the recent $mathcal{O}(alpha_s^3)$ calculations of the semileptonic width of the $b$ quark and of the relation between pole and kinetic heavy quark masses by Fael et al. on the inclusive determination of $|V_{cb}|$. The most notable effects are a small increase in the value $|V_{cb}|$ and a reduction of the uncertainty. Our final result is $|V_{cb}|=42.16(50), 10^{-3}$.

We discuss the impact of the recent untagged analysis of ${B}^0rightarrow D^{*}lbar{ u}_l$ decays by the Belle Collaboration on the extraction of the CKM element $|V_{cb}|$ and provide updated SM predictions for the $bto ctau u$ observables $R(D^*)$, $P_tau$, and $F_L^{D^*}$. The value of $|V_{cb}|$ that we find is about $2sigma$ from the one from inclusive semileptonic $B$ decays, and is very sensitive to the slope of the form factor at zero recoil which should soon become available from lattice calculations.
We reconsider the possibility that the tension in the $|V_{cb}|$ determinations from inclusive and exclusive $B$ decay modes is due to a new physics effect. We modify the Standard Model effective Hamiltonian for semileptonic $b to c$ transitions including a tensor operator with a lepton flavour dependent coupling $epsilon_T^ell$, and investigate separately the muon and electron modes. The interference term between SM and NP, proportional to the lepton mass, has different impact in the inclusive and exclusive $B$ modes to muon. Moreover, even when the lepton mass is small as for the electron, the NP effect is different in inclusive and exclusive $B$ channels. For both $mu$ and $e$ we find a region of $epsilon_T^{mu,,e}$ where the constraints from $B^- to D^{(*)0} ell^- {bar u}_ell$ and $B to X_c , ell , bar u_ell$ are satisfied for the same $|V_{cb}|$.
We perform the simultaneous $|V_{ub}|$ and $|V_{cb}|$ extractions with only the exclusive $Lambda_b$ decays of $Lambda_bto (p,Lambda_c^+)mubar u_mu$, $Lambda_bto ppi^-$ and $Lambda_bto Lambda_c^+ (pi^-, D^-)$. We obtain that $|V_{ub}|=(3.7pm 0.3)times 10^{-3}$ and $|V_{cb}|=(45.9pm 2.7)times 10^{-3}$. Our value of $|V_{ub}|$ is larger than that of $(3.27pm 0.15pm 0.16pm 0.06)times 10^{-3}$, previously extracted by the LHC Collaboration from the exclusive $Lambda_b$ decays also, but nearly identical to $(3.72pm 0.19)times 10^{-3}$ from the exclusive $B$ decays. On the other hand, our extracted result of $|V_{cb}|$ favors the value of $(42.2pm 0.8)times 10^{-3}$ from the inclusive $B$ decays.
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 yield reasonable results for both exclusive and inclusive decays.
The Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa parameter $|V_{cb}|$ plays an important role among the experimental constraints of the Yukawa sector of the Standard Model. The present status of our knowledge will be summarized with particular emphasis to the interplay between theoretical and experimental advances needed to improve upon present uncertainties.
