Bounds on invisible decays of the Higgs boson from $tbar{t}H$ production were inferred from a CMS search for stop quarks decaying to $tbar{t}$ and missing transverse momentum. Limits on the production of $tbar{t}H$ relied on the efficiency of the CMS selection for $tbar{t}H$, as measured in a simulated sample. An error in the generation of the simulated sample lead to a significant overestimate of the selection efficiency. Corrected results are presented.

We recompute the invisible Higgs decay width arising from Higgs-graviscalar mixing in the ADD model, comparing the original derivation in the non-diagonal mass basis to that in a diagonal mass basis. The results obtained are identical (and differ by
a factor of 2 from the original calculation) but the diagonal-basis derivation is pedagogically useful for clarifying the physics of the invisible width from mixing. We emphasize that both derivations make it clear that a direct scan in energy for a process such as $WWto WW$ mediated by Higgs plus graviscalar intermediate resonances would follow a {it single} Breit-Wigner form with total width given by $Gamma^{tot}=Gamma_h^{SM}+Gamma_{invisible}$. We also compute the additional contributions to the invisible width due to direct Higgs to graviscalar pair decays. We find that the invisible width due to the latter is relatively small unless the Higgs mass is comparable to or larger than the effective extra-dimensional Planck mass.
We study the fusion processes $W^-W^+to tbar t$ and $ZZto tbar t$ observable at a future $e^-e^+$ collider and we discuss their sensitivity to an $Htt$ form factor which may be due to compositeness, in particular when the $H$ and the top quark have c
ommon constituents. We make an amplitude analysis and illustrate which helicity amplitudes and cross sections for specific final $tbar t$ polarizations are especially sensitive to this form factor.
We analyze the extent to which the LHC and Tevatron results as of the end of 2012 constrain invisible (or undetected) decays of the Higgs boson-like state at ~ 125 GeV. To this end we perform global fits for several cases: 1) a Higgs boson with Stand
ard Model (SM) couplings but additional invisible decay modes; 2) SM couplings to fermions and vector bosons, but allowing for additional new particles modifying the effective Higgs couplings to gluons and photons; 3) no new particles in the loops but tree-level Higgs couplings to the up-quarks, down-quarks and vector bosons, relative to the SM, treated as free parameters. We find that in the three cases invisible decay rates of 23%, 61%, 88%, respectively, are consistent with current data at 95% confidence level (CL). Limiting the coupling to vector bosons, CV, to CV < 1 in case 3) reduces the allowed invisible branching ratio to 56% at 95% CL. Requiring in addition that the Higgs couplings to quarks have the same sign as in the SM, an invisible rate of up to 36% is allowed at 95% CL. We also discuss direct probes of invisible Higgs decays, as well as the interplay with dark matter searches.
We consider QCD radiative corrections to the associated production of a heavy-quark pair ($Q{bar Q}$) with a generic colourless system $F$ at hadron colliders. We discuss the resummation formalism for the production of the $Q{bar Q}F$ system at small
values of its total transverse momentum $q_T$. The perturbative expansion of the resummation formula leads to the explicit ingredients that can be used to apply the $q_T$ subtraction formalism to fixed-order calculations for this class of processes. We use the $q_T$ subtraction formalism to perform a fully differential perturbative computation for the production of a top-antitop quark pair and a Higgs boson. At next-to-leading order we compare our results with those obtained with established subtraction methods and we find complete agreement. We present, for the first time, the results for the flavour off-diagonal partonic channels at the next-to-next-to-leading order.
In the frameworks of the littlest Higgs($LH$) model and its extension with T-parity($LHT$), we studied the associated $tbar th^0$ production process $e^+ e^- to gammagamma to t bar t h^0$ at the future $e^+e^-$ linear colliders up to QCD next-to-lead
ing order. We present the regions of $sqrt{s}-f$ parameter space in which the $LH$ and $LHT$ effects can and cannot be discovered with the criteria assumed in this paper. The production rates of process $gammagamma to t bar t h^0$ in different photon polarization collision modes are also discussed. We conclude that one could observe the effects contributed by the $LH$ or $LHT$ model on the cross section for the process $e^+ e^- to gammagamma to t bar t h^0$ in a reasonable parameter space, or might put more stringent constraints on the $LH$/$LHT$ parameters in the future experiments at linear colliders.
