abstract
We summarize theoretical calculations of B_c decays and lifetime in the framework of QCD sum rules and compare the results with the estimates by the methods of Operator Product Expansion in the inverse heavy quark masses as well as of potential quark models. The agreement of estimates in the various approaches is discussed. The features of B_c decay modes are considered.

pQCD calculations predict ~90% longitudinal polarization in B_c to J/psi or psi(2S) plus rho or K* mediated light meson pairs, with one branching ratio ratio matching LHCb at 2.67 vs 2.80.
Computes pQCD form factors for B_c to D(*) transitions via lattice inputs and heavy quark symmetry, then predicts branching fractions and angular observables for semileptonic and rare dilepton decays.
