Abstract

We use lattice QCD to fully determine the CKM matrix. |Vcd|, |Vcs|, |Vub|, |Vcb| and |Vus| are, respectively, directly determined with recent lattice results for form factors of semileptonic D->pi l nu, D->K l nu, B->pi l nu, B->D l nu and K->pi l nu decays obtained by the Fermilab Lattice, MILC, and HPQCD Collaborations. In addition, |Vud|, |Vtb|, |Vts| and |Vtd| are determined by using unitarity of the CKM matrix and the experimental result for sin(2beta).
