We derive new QCD sum rules for $Bto D$ and $Bto D^*$ form factors. The underlying correlation functions are expanded near the light-cone in terms of $B$-meson distribution amplitudes defined in HQET, whereas the $c$-quark mass is kept finite. The leading-order contributions of two- and three-particle distribution amplitudes are taken into account. From the resulting light-cone sum rules we calculate all $Bto Dst $ form factors in the region of small momentum transfer (maximal recoil). In the infinite heavy-quark mass limit the sum rules reduce to a single expression for the Isgur-Wise function. We compare our predictions with the form factors extracted from experimental $Bto Dst l u_l$ decay rates fitted to dispersive parameterizations.

We compute perturbative corrections to $B to pi$ form factors from QCD light-cone sum rules with $B$-meson distribution amplitudes. Applying the method of regions we demonstrate factorization of the vacuum-to-$B$-meson correlation function defined wi th an interpolating current for pion, at one-loop level, explicitly in the heavy quark limit. The short-distance functions in the factorization formulae of the correlation function involves both hard and hard-collinear scales; and these functions can be further factorized into hard coefficients by integrating out the hard fluctuations and jet functions encoding the hard-collinear information. Resummation of large logarithms in the short-distance functions is then achieved via the standard renormalization-group approach. We further show that structures of the factorization formulae for $f_{B pi}^{+}(q^2)$ and $f_{B pi}^{0}(q^2)$ at large hadronic recoil from QCD light-cone sum rules match that derived in QCD factorization. In particular, we perform an exploratory phenomenological analysis of $B to pi$ form factors, paying attention to various sources of perturbative and systematic uncertainties, and extract $|V_{ub}|= left(3.05^{+0.54}_{-0.38} |_{rm th.} pm 0.09 |_{rm exp.}right) times 10^{-3}$ with the inverse moment of the $B$-meson distribution amplitude $phi_B^{+}(omega)$ determined by reproducing $f_{B pi}^{+}(q^2=0)$ obtained from the light-cone sum rules with $pi$ distribution amplitudes. Furthermore, we present the invariant-mass distributions of the lepton pair for $B to pi ell u_{ell}$ ($ell= mu ,, tau$) in the whole kinematic region. Finally, we discuss non-valence Fock state contributions to the $B to pi$ form factors $f_{B pi}^{+}(q^2)$ and $f_{B pi}^{0}(q^2)$ in brief.
We study the $B to rho$ helicity form factors (HFFs) by applying the light-cone sum rules up to twist-4 accuracy. The HFF has some advantages in comparison to the conventionally calculated transition form factors, such as the HFF parameterization can be achieved via diagonalizable unitarity relations and etc. At the large recoil point, only the $rho$-meson longitudinal component contributes to the HFFs, and we have $mathcal{H}_{rho,0}(0)=0.435^{+0.055}_{-0.045}$ and $mathcal{H}_{rho,{1,2}}(0)equiv 0$. We extrapolate the HFFs to physically allowable $q^2$-region and apply them to the $B to rho$ semileptonic decay. We observe that the $rho$-meson longitudinal component dominates its differential decay width in low $q^2$-region, and its transverse component dominates the high $q^2$-region. Two ratios $R_{rm low}$ and $R_{rm high}$ are used to characterize those properties, and our LCSR calculation gives, $R_{rm low}=0.967^{+0.305}_{-0.284}$ and $R_{rm high}=0.219^{+0.058}_{-0.070}$, which agree with the BaBar measurements within errors.
We reconsider and update the QCD light-cone sum rules for $Bto pi$ form factors. The gluon radiative corrections to the twist-2 and twist-3 terms in the correlation functions are calculated. The $bar{MS}$ $b$-quark mass is employed, instead of the on e-loop pole mass used in the previous analyses. The light-cone sum rule for $f^+_{Bpi}(q^2)$ is fitted to the measured $q^2$-distribution in $Bto pi l u_l$, fixing the input parameters with the largest uncertainty: the Gegenbauer moments of the pion distribution amplitude. For the $Bto pi$ vector form factor at zero momentum transfer we predict $f^+_{Bpi}(0)= 0.26^{+0.04}_{-0.03}$. Combining it with the value of the product $|V_{ub}f^+_{Bpi}(0)|$ extracted from experiment, we obtain $|V_{ub}|=(3.5pm 0.4pm 0.2pm 0.1) times 10^{-3}$. In addition, the scalar and penguin $Bto pi$ form factors $f^0_{Bpi}(q^2)$ and $f^T_{Bpi}(q^2)$ are calculated.
The $H^*Hpi$ form factor for H = B and D mesons is evaluated in a QCD sum rule calculation. We study the Borel sum rule for the three point function of two pseudoscalar and one vector meson currents up to order four in the operator product expansion. The double Borel transform is performed with respect to the heavy meson momenta. We discuss the momentum dependence of the form factors and two different approaches to extract the $H^*Hpi$ coupling constant.
The form factors of the semileptonic $Bto pipiellbar u$ decay are calculated from QCD light-cone sum rules with the distribution amplitudes of dipion states. This method is valid in the kinematical region, where the hadronic dipion state has a small invariant mass and simultaneously a large recoil. The derivation of the sum rules is complicated by the presence of an additional variable related to the angle between the two pions. In particular, we realize that not all invariant amplitudes in the underlying correlation function can be used, some of them generating kinematical singularities in the dispersion relation. The two sum rules that are free from these ambiguities are obtained in the leading twist-2 approximation, predicting the $bar{B}^0to pi^+pi^0$ form factors $F_{perp}$ and $F_{parallel}$ of the vector and axial $bto u$ current, respectively. We calculate these form factors at the momentum transfers $0<q^2lesssim 12 $ GeV$^2$ and at the dipion mass close to the threshold $4m_pi^2$. The sum rule results indicate that the contributions of the higher partial waves to the form factors are suppressed with respect to the lowest $P$-wave contribution and that the latter is not completely saturated by the $rho$-meson term.
