Analytic expressions for the planar master integrals in two-loop NLO EW light-fermion contributions to gg → ZH are derived via canonical differential equations and expressed using Goncharov polylogarithms or one-fold integrals over them.

abstract
We present results for the two-loop helicity amplitudes entering the NLO QCD corrections to the production of a Higgs boson in association with a $Z$-boson in gluon fusion. The two-loop integrals, involving massive top quarks, are calculated numerically. Results for the interference of the finite part of the two-loop amplitudes with the Born amplitude are shown as a function of the two kinematic invariants on which the amplitudes depend.

The ggxy library implements NLO QCD corrections for gg→ZH and gg→ZZ with full top-quark mass dependence using high-energy and forward-limit expansions, validated against existing results and interfaced to POWHEG for parton-shower matching.
NLO+NLL QCD corrections to gluon-fusion ZH production increase the cross-section by ~20% and reduce scale uncertainties from 20% to 12% at LHC energies, combined with Drell-Yan N3LL results.
