We present searches for massive top and bottom quark partners at CMS using LHC pp collision data collected at centre-of-mass energy $sqrt{s} = 8$ TeV. Such partners can be found in models predicting vector-like quarks to solve the hierarchy problem and stabilize the Higgs boson mass. The searches span a range of final states containing several lepton and jet multiplicities, and limits were set on mass and production cross sections as a function of branching ratios.

Vector-like quarks (VLQs) that are partners of the heavy top and bottom quarks are predicted in many extensions of the Standard Model (SM). We explore the possibility that these states could explain not only the longstanding anomaly in the forward-ba
ckward asymmetry in $b$-quark production at LEP, $A_{rm FB}^b $, but also the more recent $sim 2sigma$ deviation of the cross section for the associated Higgs production with top quark pairs at the LHC, $sigma(ppto tbar t H)$. Introducing three illustrative models for VLQs with different representations under the SM gauge group, we show that the two anomalies can be resolved while satisfying all other theoretical and experimental constraints. In this case, the three different models predict VLQ states in the $1-2$ TeV mass range that can be soon probed at the LHC. In a second step, we discuss the sensitivity on the VLQ masses and couplings that could be obtained by means of a percent level accuracy in the measurement of ratios of partial Higgs decay widths, in particular $Gamma(H ! to! gammagamma)/Gamma(H ! to! ZZ^*)$ and $Gamma(H ! to ! bbar b)/Gamma(H ! to ! WW^*)$. We show that top and bottom VL partners with masses up to $sim 5$ TeV and exotic VLQs with masses in the $10$ TeV range can be probed at the high-luminosity LHC.
A review of the main recent results on top quark production from the ATLAS and CMS experiments is presented. Results on both electroweak single top quark production and strong top pair production are presented.
Recent top quark event modeling studies done using LHC proton-proton collision data collected with the CMS detector at centre of mass energies of 8 and 13 TeV and state-of-the-art theoretical predictions are summarized. A new factorized approach for
parton shower uncertainties is presented. A top quark specific PYTHIA8 CMS tune, along with tunes using new color reconnection models, is discussed. The possibility of having a consistent choice of parton distribution function in the matrix element and the parton shower is demonstrated with tunes constructed with leading, next-to-leading, and next-to-next-to-leading ord
