Precise perturbative flavor symmetry breaking in D decays

Abstract: Flavor SU(3) has been known to describe adequately hadronic charmed meson decay amplitudes with SU(3) breaking corrections of 20-30%. I will describe a new approach treating perturbatively high order SU(3) breaking. I will focus on predicted amplitude relations affected by tiny fourth order SU(3) breaking terms varying between 10^{-3} and 10^{-4}. SU(3) relations failing at such high precision could provide evidence for new physics in the flavor sector.
