In the upcoming LHC run we will be able to probe the structure ofthe loop--induced Higgs--gluon coupling through kinematics. First, we establish state-of-the-art simulations with up to two jets to next-to-leading order including top mass effects. They allow us to search for deviations from the low-energy limits in boosted Higgs production. In addition, the size of the top mass effects suggests that they should generally be included in Higgs studies at the LHC. Next, we show how off-shell Higgs production with a decay to four leptons is sensitive to the same top mass effects. We compare the potential of both methods based on the same top--Higgs Lagrangian. Finally, we comment on related model assumptions required for a Higgs width measurement.

  1. Neural simulation-based inference of the Higgs trilinear self-coupling via off-shell Higgs production

    hep-ph 2025-07 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A hybrid NSBI technique is presented for inferring the Higgs trilinear coupling via off-shell production in SMEFT, achieving near-theoretical-optimum sensitivity with expected HL-LHC constraints.

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Semi-leptonic h to VV* decays retain an effective two-qutrit description for quantum tomography and entanglement after including finite fermion masses and NLO corrections.
