abstract
The LHCb Collaboration announced the observation of three narrow structures consistent with hidden-charm pentaquark states. They are candidates of hadronic molecules formed of a pair of a charmed baryon and an anticharmed meson. Among them, the $P_c(4457)$ mass is consistent with earlier predictions of a $\Sigma_c\bar D^*$ molecule with $I=1/2$. We point out that if such a picture were true, one would have $\mathcal{B}(P_c(4457)\to J/\psi \Delta^+)/\mathcal{B}(P_c(4457)\to J/\psi p)$ at the level ranging from a few percent to about 30%. Such a large isospin breaking decay ratio is two to three orders of magnitude larger than that for normal hadron resonances. It is a unique feature of the $\Sigma_c\bar D^*$ molecular model, and can be checked by LHCb.

Molecular Interpretation of the $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ States
The paper predicts Pc(4440) has J^P = 3/2- and Pc(4457) has J^P = 1/2+ in a pion-exchange coupled-channel model without short-range terms.

Symmetry Analysis of Compact Tetraquark States and Implications for the Fully Charmed Candidates $X(6600)$, $X(6900)$, and $X(7100)$
Symmetry analysis of compact tetraquarks shows low-energy states favor J^P=2+ and places X(6600), X(6900), X(7100) among the lower levels of the fully charmed spectrum.

Strong decays of the latest LHCb pentaquark candidates in hadronic molecule pictures
Treating Pc(4312), Pc(4440) and Pc(4457) as S-wave hadronic molecules, this paper computes decay widths and argues that spins 1/2^-, 1/2^- and 3/2^- respectively fit the measured widths.
