Description
Leptonic and semileptonic decays of charmed mesons are excellent places for the extraction of the CKM matrix elements $|V_{cd}|$ and $|V_{cs}|$ and to provide stringent constraints on possible New Physics scenarios. Lattice QCD provides a non-perturbative method to calculate the hadronic contributions involved in these processes. In this talk, I will review recent progress in the study of D-meson decay constants and semileptonic form factors. In addition, I will present the impact of the latest lattice-QCD results on phenomenology and compare the predictions with the experimental results.
