Description

Recent results in studies of exotic states at LHCb are presented in this talk. The results include observation of pentaquark states in Lambda_b decays, studies of B -> psi' K pi and B -> jpsi phi K channels with contributions of tetraquark candidates, search for X(5568) in Bs pi channel, and the most recent constraints on the quantum numbers of molecular candidate Lambda_c(2940) from Lambda_b -> D0 p pi analysis. Analysis techniques used and challenges faced in these studies are discussed.
