Abstract
An algebraic model describing symmetry breaking, which was considered in a previous paper for the mass spectrum problem, is applied to the weak decays , , , and . It gives constant form factors, , and a suppression of the strangeness-changing decays (Cabibbo angles) of and . The results also allow the determination of all parameters that characterize the representation of and its spectrum-generating group , from which the infinite dimensionality of the multiplets can be inferred.
