Abstract

The problem of hadronic input in charmless nonleptonic B decays is discussed. QCD sum rules and their light-cone versions (LCSR) provide an important part of this input, such as the decay constant fB and B→π form factor. Employing the LCSR technique, the B→ππ hadronic matrix elements with emission, penguin and annihilation topologies are calculated, with no evidence for large nonfactorizable effects and/or strong phases.
