Abstract

We consider the two-loop corrections to the HW+WHW^+W^- vertex at order ααs\alpha\alpha_s. We construct a canonical basis for the two-loop integrals using the Baikov representation and the intersection theory. By solving the ϵ\epsilon-form differential equations, we obtain fully analytic expressions for the master integrals in terms of multiple polylogarithms, which allow fast and accurate numeric evaluation for arbitrary configurations of external momenta. We apply our analytic results to the decay process HνeeWH \to \nu_e e W, and study both the integrated and differential decay rates. Our results can also be applied to the Higgs production process via WW boson fusion.
