      abstract     = {A search for flavor-changing neutral current interactions
                      of the top quark (t) and the Higgs boson (H) is presented.
                      The search is based on proton-proton collision data
                      collected in 2016-2018 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV
                      with the CMS detector at the LHC, and corresponding to an
                      integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. Events containing a
                      pair of leptons with the same-sign electric charge and at
                      least one jet are considered. The results are used to
                      constrain the branching fraction ($\mathcal{B}$) of the top
                      quark decaying to a Higgs boson and an up (u) or charm (c)
                      quark. No significant excess above the estimated background
                      was found. The observed (expected) upper limits at 95\%
                      confidence level are found to be 0.072\% (0.059\%) for
                      $\mathcal{B}$(t $\to$ Hu) and 0.043\% (0.062\%) for
                      $\mathcal{B}$(t $\to$ Hc). These results are combined with
                      two other searches performed by the CMS Collaboration for
                      flavor-changing neutral current interactions of top quarks
                      and Higgs bosons in final states with a pair of photons or
                      of bottom quarks. The resulting observed (expected) upper
                      limits at 95\% confidence level are 0.019\% (0.027\%) for
                      $\mathcal{B}$(t $\to$ Hu) and 0.037\% (0.035\%) for
                      $\mathcal{B}$(t $\to$ Hc). These results constitute the most
                      stringent limits on these branching fractions to date.},
