We have searched for proton into muon plus neutral kaon using data from a 91.7 kiloton-year exposure of Super-Kamiokande-I, a 49.2 kiloton-year exposure of Super-Kamiokande-II, and a 31.9 kiloton-year exposure of Super-Kamiokande-III. The number of candidate events in the data was consistent with the atmospheric neutrino background expectation and no evidence for proton decay in this mode was found. We set a partial lifetime lower limit of 1.6x10^33 years at the 90% confidence level.

Searches for a nucleon decay into a charged anti-lepton (e^+ or {mu}^+) plus a light meson ({pi}^0, {pi}^-, {eta}, {rho}^0, {rho}^-, {omega}) were performed using the Super-Kamiokande I and II data. Twelve nucleon decay modes were searched for. The t
otal exposure is 140.9 kiloton cdot years, which includes a 91.7 kiloton cdot year exposure (1489.2 live days) of Super-Kamiokande-I and a 49.2 kiloton cdot year exposure (798.6 live days) of Super-Kamiokande-II. The number of candidate events in the data was consistent with the atmospheric neutrino background expectation. No significant evidence for a nucleon decay was observed in the data. Thus, lower limits on the nucleon partial lifetime at 90% confidence level were obtained. The limits range from 3.6 times 10^31 to 8.2 times 10^33 years, depending on the decay modes.
A search for dinucleon decay into pions with the Super-Kamiokande detector has been performed with an exposure of 282.1 kiloton-years. Dinucleon decay is a process that violates baryon number by two units. We present the first search for dinucleon de
cay to pions in a large water Cherenkov detector. The modes $^{16}$O$(pp) rightarrow$ $^{14}$C$pi^{+}pi^{+}$, $^{16}$O$(pn) rightarrow$ $^{14}$N$pi^{+}pi^{0}$, and $^{16}$O$(nn) rightarrow$ $^{14}$O$pi^{0}pi^{0}$ are investigated. No significant excess in the Super-Kamiokande data has been found, so a lower limit on the lifetime of the process per oxygen nucleus is determined. These limits are: $tau_{pprightarrowpi^{+}pi^{+}} > 7.22 times 10^{31}$ years, $tau_{pnrightarrowpi^{+}pi^{0}} > 1.70 times 10^{32}$ years, and $tau_{nnrightarrowpi^{0}pi^{0}} > 4.04 times 10^{32}$ years. The lower limits on each mode are about two orders of magnitude better than previous limits from searches for dinucleon decay in iron.
A search for proton decay into three charged leptons has been performed by using 0.37$,$Mton$cdot$years of data collected in Super-Kamiokande. All possible combinations of electrons, muons and their anti-particles consistent with charge conservation
were considered as decay modes. No significant excess of events has been found over the background, and lower limits on the proton lifetime divided by the branching ratio have been obtained. The limits range between $9.2times10^{33}$ to $3.4times10^{34}$ years at 90$,$% confidence level, improving by more than an order of magnitude upon limits from previous experiments. A first limit has been set for the $prightarrowmu^-e^+e^+$ mode.
We have searched for proton decays into a charged antilepton ($e^+$, $mu^+$) plus a meson ($eta$, $rho^0$, $omega$) and neutron decays into a charged antilepton ($e^+$, $mu^+$) plus a meson ($pi^-$, $rho^-$) using Super-Kamiokande (SK) I-IV data, cor
responding to 0.316 megaton$cdot$years of exposure. This measurement updates the previous published result by using 2.26 times more data and improved analysis methods. No significant evidence for nucleon decay has been observed and lower limits on the partial lifetime of the nucleon are obtained. The limits range from 3$times$10$^{31}$ to 1$times$10$^{34}$ years at 90% confidence level, depending on the decay mode.
We present a search for non-zero theta_{13} and deviations of sin^2 theta_{23} from 0.5 in the oscillations of atmospheric neutrino data from Super-Kamiokande -I, -II, and -III. No distortions of the neutrino flux consistent with non-zero theta_{13}
are found and both neutrino mass hierarchy hypotheses are in agreement with the data. The data are best fit at Delta m^2 = 2.1 x 10^-3 eV^2, sin^2 theta_{13} = 0.0, and sin^2 theta_{23} =0.5. In the normal (inverted) hierarchy theta_{13} and Delta m^2 are constrained at the one-dimensional 90% C.L. to sin^2 theta_{13} < 0.04 (0.09) and 1.9 (1.7) x 10^-3 < Delta m^2 < 2.6 (2.7) x 10^-3 eV^2. The atmospheric mixing angle is within 0.407 <= sin^2 theta_{23} <= 0.583 at 90% C.L.
