Resummation in Fractional APT: How many loops do we need to take into account?

Abstract

We give a short introduction to the Analytic Perturbation Theory (APT) and its generalization to Fractional powers -- FAPT. We describe how to treat heavy-quark thresholds in FAPT and then show how to resum perturbative series in both the one-loop APT and FAPT. As an application we consider FAPT description of the Higgs boson decay $H^0\to b\bar{b}$.
