The complete O(N_f alpha^2) weak contributions to the muon lifetime, denoted as Delta r^(2), are calculated in the MS-bar renormalization scheme. These come from 2-loop Feynman diagrams containing a loop formed by complete generations of massless fermions. They form an independent, gauge-invariant set of corrections that, because of the large number of light fermions in the Standard Model, is expected to make a significant contribution. In the MS-bar renormalization scheme with mu'= (pi e^gamma)^(1/2) mu = M_Z and for a Higgs mass, M_H, in the range 100-1000 GeV the contribution varies from -0.55x10^-4 to -1.54x10^-4 for each massless generation of fermions.

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.
