Description
Techniques and results concerning soft gluon resummation at the level
of total and differential cross sections
in top-quark pair production at hadron colliders are presented.
In particular, the theoretical framework underlying resummation
at NLO+NNLL level for differential cross sections is briefly review,
and the consequences for observables such as the total inclusive
pair-production cross section, the invariant mass and transverse
momentum distributions, and the forward-backward asymmetry are
discussed.
