Four-loop non-singlet QCD splitting functions are verified for consistency and used to finalize analytical forms for the gluon virtual anomalous dimension and N^4LL threshold resummation coefficients, revealing a new small-x logarithmic structure.
A decomposition splits the most singular dipole term of the N-jettiness soft function into an inclusive soft function and a remainder that is absent at NLO, finite at NNLO, and subtractable at N3LO, enabling NNLO results for up to five jets.
