TL;DR: The most up-to-date predictions of Higgs cross sections and decay branching ratios, parton distribution functions, and off-shell Higgs boson production and interference effects were presented by the LHC Higgs Cross Section Working Group in 2014-2016 as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The proceedings of the 2013 Les Houches workshop on physics at TeV colliders as discussed by the authors dealt primarily with the techniques for calculating standard model multi-leg NLO and NNLO QCD and NLO EW cross sections and comparison of those cross sections with LHC data from Run 1, and projections for future measurements in Run 2.

TL;DR: In this article, the NMHV amplitudes for Higgs, quarks and gluons were derived for the case of n-partons and a Higgs + n partons, and the general results agree numerically with all of the available Higgs+n-parton amplitudes.

TL;DR: In this article, general tree-level recursion relations for amplitudes which include massive propagating particles are derived for all amplitudes with a pair of scalars and n ≤ 4 gluons.

TL;DR: In this article, a method for the direct extraction of rational contributions to one-loop scattering amplitudes, missed by standard four-dimensional unitarity techniques, has been proposed, using generalised unitarity in $D=4-2-e$ dimensions to write the amplitudes in terms of products of massive tree amplitudes.
