Description

Recent years have seen rapid progress in perturbative calculations in quantum field theory. In this talk we review this progress and describe challenges for the future. Recent examples emphasizing the importance of non-trivial computations in quantum field theory for understanding experimental results are reviewed. Applications of the new developments to Higgs production and backgrounds as well as to jet production are described.
