We briefly summarize some theoretical advances on perturbative QCD calculations relevant for the physics of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). As an explicit example, we discuss the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD calcu- lation for the production of a Higgs boson decaying to bottom quarks in association with a vector boson. We show illustrative numerical results for cross sections and associated distributions with typical kinematical cuts applied in the LHC experimen- tal analysis.

Abstract
We briefly summarize some theoretical advances on perturbative QCD calculations relevant for the physics of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). As an explicit example, we discuss the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD calcu- lation for the production of a Higgs boson decaying to bottom quarks in association with a vector boson. We show illustrative numerical results for cross sections and associated distributions with typical kinematical cuts applied in the LHC experimen- tal analysis.
