Approximate N3LO Higgs-boson production cross section using physical-kernel constraints

The single-logarithmic enhancement of the physical kernel for Higgs production by gluon-gluon fusion in the heavy top-quark limit is employed to derive the leading so far unknown contributions, ln5, 4, 3(1−z), to the N3LO coefficient function in the threshold expansion. Also using knowledge from Hig...
