      abstract     = {A search for a new scalar resonance decaying to a pair of Z
                      bosons is performed in the mass range from 130 GeV to 3 TeV,
                      and for various width scenarios. The analysis is based on
                      proton-proton collisions recorded by the CMS experiment at
                      the LHC in 2016, corresponding to an integrated luminosity
                      of 35.9 fb$^{-1}$ at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The
                      Z boson pair decays are reconstructed using the 4$\ell$,
                      2$\ell$2q, and 2$\ell$2$\nu$ final states, where $\ell =$ e
                      or $\mu$. Both gluon fusion and electroweak production of
                      the scalar resonance are considered, with a free parameter
                      describing their relative cross sections. A dedicated
                      categorization of events, based on the kinematic properties
                      of associated jets, and matrix element techniques are
                      employed for an optimal signal and background separation. A
                      description of the interference between signal and
                      background amplitudes for a resonance of an arbitrary width
                      is included. No significant excess of events with respect to
                      the standard model expectation is observed and limits are
                      set on the product of the cross section for a new scalar
                      boson and the branching fraction for its decay to ZZ for a
                      large range of masses and widths.},
