Two-loop QCD corrections to $ H \rightarrow b + \bar{b} + g $ at higher powers in the dimensional regulator

We compute the two-loop massless QCD corrections to the amplitude of Higgs boson decay to bottom quark pair and a gluon ($H \rightarrow b + \bar{b} + g$) in the higher powers of the dimensional regularization parameter $ε$. The calculation is performed by projecting the amplitude onto the appropriate Lorentz structures related to the process. We also show the numerical behaviour of the form factors for a few sample phase-space points. These amplitudes are necessary ingredients for computing the three-loop virtual corrections to bottom-quark annihilation to Higgs plus jet production at the hadron collisions.

Associated $ZH$ production in gluon fusion process at NLO+NLL

We present precise results for invariant mass distributions and inclusive cross-sections, of associated $ZH$ production through gluon fusion in QCD. We include threshold logarithms at next-to-leading-logarithmic (NLL) accuracy and match the results to full next-to-leading-order (NLO) results with exact top-quark mass dependence in the virtual amplitudes. At 13.6 TeV energy at LHC, the NLO+NLL cross-section increases the NLO counterpart by about $20\%$. For differential distributions, at 3000 GeV, the uncertainties arising out of the unphysical renormalization and factorization scales is about $20\%$ for NLO; whereas for the resummed results it is around $12\%$. We also combine these results to the Drell-Yan type results at N$^3$LL and present the most precise results in hadron collisions.

Threshold resummation for gluon fusion $ZH$ production at the LHC

We present precise results for the $ZH$ production cross-section and invariant mass distribution at the LHC, taking into account the effects of the leading and sub-leading soft gluons. We improve both quark-initiated and gluon-initiated subprocesses through threshold resummation within the QCD framework.

Threshold Resummation of Drell-Yan type colorless processes at LHC

We look at the threshold effects in neutral and charged Drell-Yan production, Higgs boson production with a massive vector boson, and Higgs production in bottom quark annihilation at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), up to the third order in QCD. Using third-order soft-virtual (SV) results and the universal properties of threshold logarithms, we find the process-dependent coefficients and improve the accuracy by including large threshold logarithms up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic (N$^3$LL) order and matched with the latest N$^3$LO results. We also show numerical results for the invariant mass distributions and total production cross sections for these processes. Our findings show that the theoretical scale uncertainties, which are about $0.4\%$ at N$^3$LO in fixed-order calculations, decrease to less than $0.1\%$ at N$^3$LO+N$^3$LL after SV threshold resummation in the high invariant mass region.

QCD corrections for Pseudoscalar Higgs decay to 3 partons at higher orders in dimensional regulator

In this contribution, we present our recent study on the second-order corrections of pseudo-scalar($A$) Higgs decay to three partons, at higher orders in the dimensional regulator. We have studied the one and two-loop amplitudes for processes, $A\to ggg$ and $A\to q\bar{q}g$ in the effective theory framework. Our results, after suitable crossings of the external momenta, are important ingredients for predicting the differential distribution of the pseudo-scalar Higgs boson in association with a jet at hadron colliders.

VV Resummation To NNLO+NNLL At the LHC

We present the resummed predictions for a vector boson pair production at the LHC. We have performed threshold resummation to next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic (NNLL) accuracy, and then matched them to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD results. After resummation, we observe a reduction in the scale uncertainties arising from unphysical renormalization and factorization scales. We find that the resummed corrections add a few per cent to the fixed order results for both ZZ and WW production.

Threshold resummation for $Z$-boson pair production at NNLO+NNLL

The production of a pair of on-shell $Z$-bosons is an important process at the Large Hadron Collider. Owing to its large production cross section at the LHC, this process is very useful for SM precision studies, electroweak symmetry breaking sector as well as to unravel the possible new physics. In this work, we have performed the threshold resummation of the large logarithms that arise in the partonic threshold limit $z \to 1$, up to Next-to-Next-to-Leading Logarithmic (NNLL) accuracy. The presence of the two-loop contributions in the process dependent resummation coefficient $g_0$ makes the numerical computation a non-trivial task. After matching the resummed predictions to the Next-to-Next-to-Leading order (NNLO) fixed order results, we present the invariant mass distribution to NNLO+NNLL accuracy in QCD for the current LHC energies. We find that in the high invariant mass region ($Q=1$ TeV), while the NNLO corrections are as large as $83\%$ with respect to the leading order, the NNLL contribution enhances the cross section by additional few percent, about $4\%$ for $13.6$ TeV LHC. In this invariant mass region, the conventional scale uncertainties in the fixed order results get reduced from $3.4\%$ at NNLO to about $2.6\%$ at NNLO+NNLL, and this reduction is expected to be more for higher $Q$ values.

Pseudoscalar Higgs boson decay to three parton amplitudes at NNLO to higher orders in the dimensional regulator

We present for the first time the second-order corrections of pseudo-scalar($A$) Higgs decay to three parton to higher orders in the dimensional regulator. We compute the one and two-loop amplitudes for processes, $A\to ggg$ and $A\to q\bar{q}g$ in the effective theory framework. With suitable crossing of the external momenta, these calculations are well-suited for predicting the differential distribution of pseudo-scalar Higgs in association with a jet at hadron colliders, up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in the strong coupling constant. These results expanded to higher orders in dimensional regulator will contribute to the full three loop cross section. We implement the finite pieces of the amplitudes in a numerical code which can be used with any Monte Carlo phase space generator.

Threshold resummation for $W$-boson pair production at NNLO+NNLL

We present results for threshold resummation of the invariant mass distribution, for on-shell production of a pair of $W$-bosons at next-to-next-to-leading order + next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic (NNLO+NNLL) accuracy in QCD. Owing to its sensitivity to the self-interactions between gauge bosons, this process is important to investigate at the energies of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We achieve this resummation by exploiting the factorization properties of the soft and virtual parts of the partonic cross-section. Our analysis has been carried out for the invariant mass distribution up to $Q$ = 2500 GeV. At this highest $Q$ we find that, for 13.6 TeV LHC, the NNLL resummation enhances the NNLO cross-sections by about $6.3\%$ and reduces the conventional scale uncertainties from 6.8\% at NNLO to 4.1\% at NNLO+NNLL. We also estimate the intrinsic uncertainties due to the non-perturbative parton distribution functions at the highest perturbative order, for both fixed-order and resummed results, to be around 3\% for $Q \sim$ 2000 GeV.

Soft gluon resummation for gluon fusion $ZH$ production

We examine the effects of soft gluons on Higgs boson production in association with a $Z$ boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Utilizing the universal cusp anomalous dimensions and splitting kernels, we analyze effects of soft gluons on the gluon fusion $ZH$ process, focusing on the total production cross-section as well as the invariant mass distribution at the next-to-leading logarithmic level. Additionally, we estimate the next-to-soft effects on this subprocess to the same level of accuracy. A detailed phenomenological analysis is performed for the $13.6$ TeV LHC. Finally, combining these results with those from other subprocesses, we provide comprehensive predictions for the $ZH$ production cross-section and the invariant mass distribution that will be valuable for comparison with experimental data from the upcoming LHC run as well as the future hadron colliders.

Next to Soft Threshold Resummation for $VH$ Production

We study the threshold effects for the associated production of a Higgs boson with a massive vector boson $(V=Z,W)$ in the $q\bar{q} \rightarrow V^\star \rightarrow VH$ process at the LHC. By leveraging the universality of threshold logarithms and employing soft-virtual (SV) and next-to-soft virtual (NSV) resummation techniques, we compute threshold corrections to next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. After matching the resummed predictions to the Next-to-Next-to-Leading order (NNLO) fixed order results, we present the invariant mass distribution to NNLO$+\overline{\text{NNLL}}$ accuracy in QCD for the current LHC energies and the total production cross sections. The $VH$ production channel is crucial for studying the couplings of the Higgs boson to the vector bosons $(W,Z)$ and understanding the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking. Precision measurements of this process help test the validity of the standard model (SM) and can reveal potential deviations indicating new physics.

Threshold enhanced cross sections for colorless productions

We study the threshold effect for neutral and charged Drell-Yan productions, associated production of Higgs boson with a massive vector boson and Higgs production in bottom quark annihilation at LHC to the third order in QCD. Using the third order soft-virtual results for these processes and exploiting the universality of the threshold logarithms, we extract the process-dependent coefficients for these processes and resum large threshold logarithms to next-to-next-to-next-to leading logarithmic (N$^3$LL) accuracy. By matching our results to the recently available N$^3$LO results, we provide the most precise theoretical predictions for these processes. We present numerical results for invariant mass distribution and total production cross-sections. We find the conventional scale uncertainties of about $0.4\%$ at N$^3$LO level in the fixed order results get reduced to as small as less than $0.1\%$ at N$^3$LO+N$^3$LL level in the high invariant mass region.
