We study the nonleptonic decays of B→PP in the modified perturbative QCD approach, where P stands for pseudoscalar mesons. Transverse momenta of partons and the Sudakov factor are included, which help to suppress the contributions of soft interactions. The wave function of the B meson obtained from the relativistic potential model is used, and then the contributions in the infrared region cannot be suppressed completely. So a soft cutoff scale and soft form factors are introduced. The contributions with the scale higher than the soft cutoff scale are calculated with perturbative QCD, while the contributions lower than the cutoff scale are replaced by the soft form factors. To explain experimental data, we find that contributions of color-octet operators for the quark-antiquarks in the mesons in the final state need to be considered. The contributions of the color-octet operators are parametrized by a few parameters with the help of SU(3) flavor symmetry and symmetry breaking. These parameters for color-octet contributions are universal for all the nonleptonic decay modes of the B meson, where the mesons in the final state belong to the same flavor SU(3) nonet. Both the branching ratios and CP violations are studied. We find that the theoretical calculation can well explain the experimental data of B factories.
