A Closed Analytical Formula for Two-loop Massive Tadpoles with Arbitrary Tensor Numerators
نویسنده
چکیده
Using the integration by parts method we derive a closed analytical expression for the result of the integration of an arbitrary dimensionally regulated tadpole diagram composed of a massless propagator and two massive ones, each raised into an arbitrary power, and including an arbitrary tensor numerator. We also briefly discuss the implementation of the formula in the algebraic manipulation language of FORM.

Generalized recurrence relations for two-loop propagator integrals with arbitrary masses
An algorithm for calculating two-loop propagator type Feynman diagrams with arbitrary masses and external momentum is proposed. Recurrence relations allowing to express any scalar integral in terms of basic integrals are given. A minimal set consisting of 15 essentially two-loop and 15 products of one-loop basic integrals is found. Tensor integrals and integrals with irreducible numerators are ...
متن کاملNumerical evaluation of tensor Feynman integrals in Euclidean kinematics
For the investigation of higher order Feynman integrals, potentially with tensor structure, it is highly desirable to have numerical methods and automated tools for dedicated, but sufficiently ‘simple’ numerical approaches. We elaborate two algorithms for this purpose which may be applied in the Euclidean kinematical region and in d = 4 − 2 dimensions. One method uses Mellin–Barnes representati...
متن کاملAnalytical Results for Dimensionally Regularized Massless On-shell Double Boxes with Arbitrary Indices and Numerators
We present an algorithm for the analytical evaluation of dimensionally regularized massless on-shell double box Feynman diagrams with arbitrary polynomials in numerators and general integer powers of propagators. Recurrence relations following from integration by parts are solved explicitly and any given double box diagram is expressed as a linear combination of two master double boxes and a fa...
متن کاملTensor Integrals for Two Loop Standard Model Calculations
We give a new method for the reduction of tensor integrals to finite integral representations and UV divergent analytic expressions. This includes a new method for the handling of the γ-algebra. In calculating two loop corrections to the Standard Model one is confronted with two main problems. One is the analytical difficulty of integrals involving different masses. Often one is restricted to a...
متن کاملKubo formulas for dispersion in heterogeneous periodic nonequilibrium systems.
We consider the dispersion properties of tracer particles moving in nonequilibrium heterogeneous periodic media. The tracer motion is described by a Fokker-Planck equation with arbitrary spatially periodic (but constant in time) local diffusion tensors and drifts, eventually with the presence of obstacles. We derive a Kubo-like formula for the time-dependent effective diffusion tensor valid in ...
