The authors' main claim We study this scenario in both V+h and tt+h production channels, and find both channels lead to discovery at the LHC with more than 5 sigma significance at 100 inverse femtobarn.

The abstract, sentence by sentence
Many models of physics beyond the Standard Model yield exotic Higgs decays. Some of these, particularly those in which the Higgs decays to light quarks or gluons, can be very difficult to discover experimentally. Here we introduce a new set of jet substructure techniques designed to search for such a Higgs when its dominant decay is into gluons via light, uncolored resonances. We study this scenario in both V+h and tt+h production channels, and find both channels lead to discovery at the LHC with more than 5 sigma significance at 100 inverse femtobarn.

For heavier Higgs bosons, where the $W$'s are well separated from the Higgs boson peak, we obtain $5σ$ signal significance at the LHC with $√(s)=14$ TeV and $10-25$ $^-1$ which is smaller by a factor $5-10$ than the luminosity needed for discovery in the SM production channel [ref] .

The former possibility results in a “buried Higgs” [ref] scenario, with the Higgs decaying to four gluon-originated jets, while the latter implies $h→4c$ decays, also known as “charming Higgs” [ref] (see also [ref] for a more recent jet substructure study), where $a$ may decay to $cc̅$ even if $m_a>2m_b$.

These hard subjets are the key to distinguishing hadronically decaying $W$ bosons from the QCD background, and their exploitation has formed a very productive industry in collider physics over the past few years, with strategies having been developed [ref] for tagging top quarks [ref] , Higgs bosons [ref] , heavy gauge bosons [ref] , and even hypothetical particles [ref] .
