We consider dijet production in $e^+e^-$ collisions and in $H\to b{\bar b}$ decays at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in perturbative QCD. A new non-local subtraction scheme is applied, for the first time, to obtain the fully…

In this thesis, we develop resummation algorithms suitable for perturbative QCD. In the first part, we propose a resummation technique applicable to the Regge limit. We develop a new systematic procedure for this limit in perturbative QCD…
Precision measurements at the LHC and future colliders require theory predictions with uncertainties at the percent level for many observables. Theory uncertainties due to the perturbative truncation are particularly relevant and must be…
Infrared divergences in the perturbative expansion of gauge theory amplitudes and cross sections have been a focus of theoretical investigations for almost a century. New insights still continue to emerge, as higher perturbative orders are…
