Sum Rules for the Decay of the Baryon Decuplet into the Baryon and Meson Octets in Broken SU (3) Symmetry

We have investigated the sum rules for the decuplet {→} octet+octet coupling constants, taking into account the SU(3)-symmetry-breaking interactions to first order. There are seven sum rules for the possible twelve coupling constants. One of these sum rules involves only the coupling constants for the decays N*→Nπ, Y₁*→Λπ, Y₁*→Σπ, and Ξ*→Ξπ, all of which are experimentally known. We also give the corresponding sum rules for 10* {→} 8+8 decay.
