`On the NNLO QCD corrections to deep-inelastic heavy-quark production'

The production of heavy quarks in deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) sheds light
on a number of interesting issues in QCD.
Furthermore, with more data analyses from HERA run II still to be 
finalized, constraints on global fits of PDF and its consequences for 
collider phenomenology are, perhaps, the most important aspects of this 
process in the era of the LHC.
Approximated next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD corrections for the 
total section of heavy-quark production in photon exchange DIS are presented. 
These are obtained by extending and combining NNLO information from different 
kinematical regimes, i.e. threshold, high-energy and asymptotically large Q2>>m2.
