Top quark theory review for the Tevatron, LHC, and ILC
arXiv:0810.4176
Abstract
I will briefly review the status of higher-order calculations for top-quark observables, comment on the need for improvements, discuss some of the recent theoretical advances, and present a few examples to highlight the role of top-quark observables in searches for signals of physics beyond the Standard Model.
