Recent theoretical developments in CP violation

We review recent suggestions for testing through B decays the flavor structure of CP violation in the Standard Model. Relative signs of CP asymmetries in U-spin related processes can by themselves test the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism in a crude manner. Ratios of charge-averaged decay rates and certain CP asymmetries may constrain tightly the weak phases $γ=ϕ_3$ and $α=ϕ_2$.
