The Higgs boson is produced at the LHC through gluon fusion at roughly the Standard Model rate. New colored fermions, which can contribute to $ggrightarrow h$, must have vector-like interactions in order not to be in conflict with the experimentally measured rate. We examine the size of the corrections to single and double Higgs production from heavy vector-like fermions in $SU(2)_L$ singlets and doublets and search for regions of parameter space where double Higgs production is enhanced relative to the Standard Model prediction. We compare production rates and distributions for double Higgs production from gluon fusion using an exact calculation, the low energy theorem (LET), where the top quark and the heavy vector-like fermions are taken to be infinitely massive, and an effective theory (EFT) where top mass effects are included exactly and the effects of the heavy fermions are included to ${cal O}(1/M^2_X)$. Unlike the LET, the EFT gives an extremely accurate description of the kinematic distributions for double Higgs production.

Current LHC results indicate a possible enhancement in the production of Higgs bosons in association with top quarks (tth) over the Standard Model (SM) expectations, suggesting an increase in the top Yukawa coupling. To explain these results, we stud
y the effect of adding to the SM a small set of vector-like partners of the top and bottom quarks with masses of order ~1 TeV. We consider Yukawa coupling matrices with vanishing determinant and show that then, Higgs production through gluon fusion is not affected by deviations in the top quark Yukawa coupling, and in fact depends only on deviations in the bottom quark Yukawa coupling. We call this scenario the Brane Higgs Limit, as it can emerge naturally in models of warped extra-dimensions with all matter fields in the bulk, except the Higgs (although it could also occur in 4D scenarios with vector-like quarks and special flavor symmetries forcing the vanishing of the Yukawa determinants). We show that the scenario is highly predictive for all Higgs production/decay modes, making it easily falsifiable, maybe even at the LHC RUN 2 with higher luminosity.
One way to probe new physics beyond standard model is to check the correlation among higher dimension operators in effective field theory. We examine the strong correlation between the processes of $pprightarrow tHq$ and $pprightarrow tq$ which both
depend on the same three operators. The correlation indicates that, according to the data of $pprightarrow tq$, $sigma_{tHq}=big[106.8 pm 64.8big]~{rm fb}$ which is far below the current upper limit $sigma_{tHq}leq 900~{rm fb}$.
We consider soft gluon emission corrections to the production of a top-antitop pair in association with a Higgs boson at hadron colliders. In particular, we present a soft-gluon resummation formula for this production process and gather all elements
needed to evaluate it at next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic order. We employ these results to obtain approximate next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) formulas, and implement them in a bespoke parton-level Monte Carlo program which can be used to calculate the total cross section along with arbitrary differential distributions. We use this tool to study the phenomenological impact of the approximate NNLO corrections, finding that they increase the total cross section and the differential distributions which we evaluated in this work.
We demonstrate that the multi-top productions efficiently probe the CP-property of top-Higgs interaction and the Higgs-boson width at the LHC. The four top-quark production alone can exclude a purely CP-odd top-quark Yukawa coupling at the 13~TeV LHC
with an integrated luminosity of $430~{rm fb}^{-1}$, regardless the size of the Yukawa coupling. Combining the single Higgs-boson production, the $tbar{t}H$ associated production and the four top-quark production, we show that the CP-phase of the top-quark Yukawa coupling and the Higgs-boson width can be stringently bounded at the LHC with integrated luminosities of $300~{rm fb}^{-1}$ and $3000~{rm fb}^{-1}$.
We analyse the production of a Higgs boson in association with a top--antitop-quark pair in the Standard Model at the LHC. Considering the final state consisting of four b jets, two jets, one identified charged lepton and missing energy, we examine t
he irreducible background for the production rate and several kinematical distributions. While ttH production and decay is roughly a fourth of the full process for the final state specified above, ttbb production constitutes the main contribution with about $92%$. Surprisingly, interference effects result in a reduction of the cross-section by five per cent. Furthermore, we consider NLO QCD corrections for the production of a Higgs boson, two charged leptons, two neutrinos, and two b jets. We discuss the size of the corrections and the scale dependence for the integrated cross section and different distributions. For the integrated cross section we find a $K$ factor of 1.17 and a reduction of the scale dependence from $30%$ at leading order to $5%$ at next-to-leading order.
