In this article the dynamical spin effects of the light-front holographic wave functions for light pseudoscalar mesons are studied. These improved wave functions are then confronted with a number of hadronic observables: the decay constants of π and K mesons, their ξ -moments, the pion-to-photon transition form factor, and the pure annihilation $$\bar{B}_s$$ → π+ π- and $$\bar{B}_d$$ → K+ K- decays. Taking fπ , fK , and their ratio fK / fπ as constraints, we perform a χ2 analysis for the holographic parameters, including the mass scale parameter $$\sqrtλ$$ and the effective quark masses, and find that the fitted results are quite consistent with the ones obtained from the light-quark hadronic Regge trajectories. In addition, we also show that the end point divergence appearing in the pure annihilation $$\bar{B}_s$$ → π+ π- and $$\bar{B}_d$$ → K+ K- decays can be controlled well by using these improved light-front holographic distribution amplitudes.
