After a brief review on the technique of resumming the large logarithmic terms $\alpha^n_s \ln^m(Q^2/Q^2_T)$ due to the effects of multiple gluon emission predicted by the QCD theory, I discuss its application in the production of $W^\pm$,…
We compute the non-Gaussian contribution to the covariance of the matter power spectrum at one-loop order in Standard Perturbation Theory (SPT), and using the framework of the effective field theory (EFT) of large scale structure (LSS). The…
LHC measurements involve cuts on several observables, but resummed calculations are mostly restricted to single variables. We show how the resummation of a class of double-differential measurements can be achieved through an extension of…

Two recent attempts for overcoming the poor convergence of the perturbation expansion of the thermodynamic potentials of QCD are discussed: an HTL-adaption of ``screened perturbation theory'' and approximately self-consistent HTL…
Different methods for treating the results of higher-order perturbative QCD calculations of the decay width of the Standard Model Higgs boson into bottom quarks are discusssed. Special attention is paid to the analysis of the $M_H$…
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…
In this paper, a combined resummation of soft and Coulomb corrections is performed for the associated production of the Higgs boson with a top quark pair at the LHC. We illustrate the similarities and critical differences between this…
We find a general formula for the two-loop renormalization counterterms of a scalar quantum field theory with interactions containing up to two derivatives, extending 't~Hooft's one-loop result. The method can also be used for theories with…

The QCD factorization approach provides the theoretical basis for a systematic analysis of nonleptonic decay amplitudes of B mesons in the heavy-quark limit. After recalling the basic ideas underlying this formalism, several tests of QCD…
This work is a step towards a non-perturbative continuum definition of quantum field theory (QFT), beginning with asymptotically free two dimensional non-linear sigma-models, using recent ideas from mathematics and QFT. The ideas from…
Cosmological perturbation theory is a powerful tool to predict the statistics of large-scale structure in the weakly non-linear regime, but even at 1-loop order it results in computationally expensive mode-coupling integrals. Here we…
Different choices exist for the renormalisation group resummation in the determination of $\alpha_s$ from hadronic $\tau$ decays: namely fixed-order (FOPT) and contour-improved perturbation theory (CIPT). The two approaches lead to…
We compute the decay rate of the Standard Model Higgs boson to bottom quarks to order $\alpha\alpha_s$. We apply the optical theorem and calculate the imaginary part of three-loop corrections to the Higgs boson propagator using asymptotic…
Many search strategies for the Standard Model Higgs boson apply specific selection criteria on hadronic jets observed in association with the Higgs boson decay products, either in the form of a jet veto, or by defining event samples…
We investigate the double logarithmic corrections $\alpha_s\ln^2 x$, x being a parton momentum fraction, in two-body nonleptonic B meson decays in collinear factorization theorem of perturbative QCD (PQCD). It is found that these…
We study the resummation of large QCD radiative corrections up to the next to leading logarithmic accuracy to the process photon photon to b anti-b; i.e., we resum logarithms of the type alpha_s^p log^{2p}{m^2/s} and alpha_s^p…
We present an improved prediction of the nonlinear perturbation theory (PT) via the Lagrangian picture, which was originally proposed by Matsubara (2008). Based on the relations between the power spectrum in standard PT and that in…
