Tree amplitudes of any gauge theory and gravity can be factorized into primitive three-particle amplitudes by the BCFW recursion relations. We show that the amplitudes at any perturbation order are given by tree amplitudes with additional…

We present a calculation of the two-loop helicity amplitudes for the processes H-->ggg and H-->gqqbar in the large-M_t limit. In this limit the calculation can be performed in terms of one-loop diagrams containing an effective Hgg operator.…
