The leading three-loop corrections to the Fermi decay constant in the pure MS scheme are computed, shifting the Standard Model Higgs VEV down by about 3.5 MeV and cutting residual scale dependence to below 2e-6.

abstract
I find the three-loop contribution to the effective potential for the Standard Model Higgs field, in the approximation that the strong and top Yukawa couplings are large compared to all other couplings, using dimensional regularization with modified minimal subtraction. Checks follow from gauge invariance and renormalization group invariance. I also briefly comment on the special problems posed by Goldstone boson contributions to the effective potential, and on the numerical impact of the result on the relations between the Higgs vacuum expectation value, mass, and self-interaction coupling.

Three-loop corrections to the Fermi decay constant in the $\overline{\rm{MS}}$ scheme
The leading three-loop corrections to the Fermi decay constant in the pure MS scheme are computed, shifting the Standard Model Higgs VEV down by about 3.5 MeV and cutting residual scale dependence to below 2e-6.
