Abstract
We demonstrate that in the large N approach developed by the authors in
collaboration with Bardeen, the parameters B\_6^(1/2) and B\_8^(3/2)
parametrizing the K\to\pimatrix elements <Q\_6>\_0 and <Q\_8>\_2 of the
dominant QCD and electroweak operators receive both negative O(1/N) corrections
such that B\_6^(1/2) < B\_8^(3/2)<1 in agreement with the recent lattice
results of the RBC-UKQCD collaboration. We also point out that the pattern of
the size of the hadronic matrix elements of all QCD and electroweak penguin
operators Q\_i contributing to the Kamplitudes A\_0 and A\_2, obtained
by this lattice collaboration, provides further support to our large N
approach. In particular, a very precise lattice result for the matrix element
<Q\_8>\_0 implies for the corresponding parameter B\_8^(1/2)=1.010.03 to be
compared with large N value B\_8^(1/2)=1.10.1. We discuss briefly the
implications of these findings for the ratio epsilon'/epsilon. In fact, with
the precise value for B\_8^(3/2) from RBC-UKQCD collaboration, our upper bound
on B\_6^(1/2) implies epsilon'/epsilon in the SM roughly by a factor of two
below its experimental value (16.62.3)10^-4. We also briefly
comment on the parameter B\_K and the \Delta I=1/2\$ rule.
