Abstract

I present results for high-order corrections from threshold resummation to cross sections and differential distributions in top-antitop pair production and in single-top production. I show aN³LO results for the total t t cross section as well as for the top-quark transverse momentum (p_T) and rapidity distributions, and the top-quark forward-backward asymmetry in t t production. I compare with the most recent Tevatron and LHC data, including at 13 TeV. I also present aNNLO results for cross sections and p_T distributions in t-channel, s-channel, and tW-channel single-top production.
