The action of Weyl scale invariant p=2 brane which breaks the target super Weyl scale symmetry in the N=1, D=4 superspace down to the lower dimensional Weyl symmetry W (1, 2) is constructed by the approach of nonlinear realization. The interactions of localized matter fields on the brane with the Nambu-Goldstone fields associated with the breaking of the symmetries in the superspace and one spa...

The first part of this talk reviews recent developments in flavor physics that can be made without detailed understanding of hadronic physics, driven by the data. The error of sin2β has shrunk below 5%, and the measurements of α and γ have reached interesting precisions. For the first time, there are significant constraints on the deviations from the standard model in B−B mixing and in b → s an...
