Summary

After the discovery of a Higgs boson during Run I at the LHC, Higgs physics has entered
an era of precision measurements. Among the different production channels, gluon-gluon
fusion (ggf) is the largest one and, in the presence of additional jets, constitutes also
an irreducible background to the very important vector boson fusion process. A precise
knowledge of the ggf channel is therefore fundamental. In this talk I will present NLO
QCD results for the production of a Standard Model Higgs boson in association with up
to three jets in ggf.
