Description
Higgs and top associated production is the last of the main Higgs production
channels which has still to be measured at the LHC. It is a channel of
particular relevance because it gives an unique access to a
model-independent measurement of the top quark Yukawa. In my talk I
will review recent progresses in the theoretical predictions for the signal
and for the background processes, and comment upon phenomenological
applications that a measurement of ttH will make possible. Besides the
dominant production mode in association with a top pair, I will also discuss
recent progresses for the production of a Higgs boson and a single top,
showing its relevance for the determination of the sign of the Yukawa coupling.
