We determine the masses and decay constants of the pseudoscalar mesons Bs and Bc, and also the masses of the vector mesons Bs^* and Bc^*, in quenched lattice QCD with exact chiral symmetry. For 100 gauge configurations generated with single-plaquette action at beta = 7.2 on the 32^3 x 60 lattice, we compute point-to-point quark propagators for 33 quark masses in the range [0.01, 0.85], and measure the time-correlation functions of pseudoscalar and vector mesons. The inverse lattice spacing and the charm quark bare mass are determined using the mass and decay constant of eta_c(2980). The bare masses of s and b quarks are chosen such that the masses of the corresponding vector mesons are in good agreement with phi(1020), and Upsilon(9460) respectively. Our results are: m_{Bs} = 5385(27)(17) MeV, f_{Bs} = 253(8)(7) MeV, m_{Bc} = 6278(6)(4) MeV, f_{Bc} = 489(4)(3) MeV, m_{Bs^*} = 5424(28)(19) MeV, and m_{Bc^*} = 6315(6)(5) MeV.

    An algebraic light-front model supplies unified leading-twist PDAs, LFWFs, GPDs, PDFs, EFFs, charge radii and IPS-GPDs for light, heavy-light and heavy-heavy pseudoscalar mesons from the same Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes.
