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
Recurrence relations derived via the Chetyrkin--Tkachov method of integration by parts are applied to reduce scalar three-loop bubble (vacuum) diagrams with a mass to a limited number of master integrals. The reduction is implemented as a package of computer programs for analytic evaluation in FORM. The algorithms are applicable to diagrams with any integer powers on the lines in an arbitrary dimension. A physical application is the evaluation of the three-loop QCD correction to the electroweak rho parameter.

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.
