Description

I will discuss the top-quark mass determination at the LHC, according to the
different methods used by the experimental collaborations.
In particular, I will investigate the theoretical uncertainty on the measured mass,
once interpreted in terms of the top-quark pole mass, taking particular
care about non-perturbative corrections due to bottom fragmentation in top decays.
