Abstract: TThe LHCb collaboration has recently reported evidence for non-zero CP asymmetries in $B^{+}$ decays into $p{i}^{+}{K}^{+}{K}^{-},;p{i}^{+}p{i}^{+}p{i}^{-},;K^{+}{K}^{+}{K}^{-}$ and $K^{+}p{i}^{+}p{i}^{-}$. The branching ratios for these decays have also been measured with different values ranging from $5imes10^{-6}$ to $51imes10^{-6}$. If flavor $SU(3)$ symmetry is a good symmetry for $B$ decays, in the case that the dominant amplitude is momentum independent it is expected that branching ratios $Br$ and CP violating rate differences $Delt{a}_{CP}=Gamma-overlineGamma$ satisfy, $Br(p{i}^{+}p{i}^{+}p{i}^{-})=2Br(p{i}^{+}{K}^{+}{K}^{-})$, $Br(K^{+}{K}^{+}{K}^{-})=2Br(K^{+}p{i}^{+}p{i}^{-})$, and $Delt{a}_{CP}(p{i}^{+}p{i}^{+}p{i}^{-})=2Delt{a}_{CP}(p{i}^{+}{K}^{+}{K}^{-})=-Delt{a}_{CP}(K^{+}{K}^{+}{K}^{-})=-2Delt{a}_{CP}(K^{+}p{i}^{+}p{i}^{-})$. The experimental data do not exhibit the expected pattern for the branching ratios. The rate differences for $B^{+}op{i}^{+}p{i}^{+}p{i}^{-}$ and $B^{+}o{K}^{+}{K}^{+}{K}^{-}$ satisfy the relation between $DeltaS=0$ and $DeltaS=1$ well, but the other two do not, with the CP asymmetries having different signs than expected. In this work we study how to including momentum dependent and also $SU(3)$ breaking effects on these decays to explain experimental data. We find that only including lowest order derivative terms, in the $SU(3)$ limit, the decay patterns cannot be explained. Large $SU(3)$ breaking effects are needed to explain the data.
