A key problem in making precise perturbative QCD predictions is to set the proper renormalization scale of the running coupling. The extended renormalization group equations, which express the invariance of physical observables under both…
We calculate the heavy-light meson decay constant using lattice NRQCD action for the heavy quark and Wilson quark action for the light quark over a wide range in the heavy quark mass. Simulations are carried out on a 16^3 x 32 lattice with…
Depending on the Higgs-boson and top-quark masses, $M_H$ and $M_t$, the effective potential of the {\bf Standard Model} can develop a non-standard minimum for values of the field much larger than the weak scale. In those cases the standard…
We present a fully differential description of a decay of a scalar Higgs boson into massive b-quarks valid at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in perturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD). We work within the nested soft-collinear…
In any calculation in perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) a choice needs to be made for the unphysical renormalisation scale, $\mu_R$. The Brodsky-Lepage-Mackenzie/Principle of Maximum Conformality (BLM/PMC) scale-setting procedure is…
We study possible theoretical deviations from SM in top quark physics which alter the decay properties of the top quark. Using effective filed theory techniques we parametrize the effects of potential NP of scales well above the electroweak…
This talk summarizes the first calculation of the next-to-leading-order electroweak corrections to W-boson + jet hadroproduction including leptonic W-boson decays [1]. The W-boson resonance is treated consistently using the complex-mass…
We present a complete set of decay rates of the Higgs boson with the mass of 125 GeV at the full next-to-leading order in a variety of extended Higgs models; i.e., a model with an additional real singlet scalar field, four types of two…
The large value of the top quark mass implies that the rare top decays $t \rightarrow b W^+ Z, s W^+ Z$ and $d W^+ Z$, and $t \rightarrow c W^+ W^-$ and $u W^+ W^-$, are kinematically allowed decays so long as $m_t \ge m_W + m_Z + m_{d_i}…
I review recent progresses in heavy quarks physics on the lattice. I focus on decay constants and form factors relevant for the extraction of CKM matrix elements from experimental data. B-\bar{B} mixing is also discussed. In the last part…
We present a study of a combination of HQET and relativistic QCD to extract the b-quark mass and the Bs-meson decay constant from lattice quenched simulations. We start from a small volume, where one can directly simulate the b-quark, and…
We calculate next-to-leading QCD corrections to the decay $H^+ \to u\bar d$ for generic up and down quarks in the final state. A recently developed algorithm for evaluation of massive two-loop Feynman diagrams is employed to calculate…

We calculate Higgs decay rates into {\gamma}{\gamma} and Z{\gamma} in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) and (B-L) Supersymmetric Standard Model (BLSSM) by allowing for contributions from light staus and charginos. We show…
The decay widths of top quark to S-wave $b\bar{c}$ and $b\bar{b}$ bound states are evaluated at the next-to-leading(NLO) accuracy in strong interaction. Numerical calculation shows that the NLO corrections to these processes are remarkable.…
We reinvestigate the leading QCD corrections to the radiative decay $b \to s \gamma for supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model. Although the major contributions to the corrections originate from the running of the effective…
We study radiative corrections to the decay rate of false vacua, paying particular attention to the renormalization-scale dependence of the decay rate. The decay rate exponentially depends on the bounce action. The bounce action itself is…
We present a detailed analysis on the $B_c$ meson semi-leptonic decays, $B_c \to \eta_c (J/\psi) \ell \nu$, up to next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD correction. We adopt the principle of maximum conformality (PMC) to set the renormalization…
Sum rules for exclusive production of heavy meson pairs in $e^+e^-$ annihilation are used to evaluate the $\Upsilon(4S) \to B \bar B$ and $\psi(3770) \to D \bar D$ decay widths. Infinitely heavy quark limit is discussed, so that scaling law…
