چکیده
The 4-th order Runge-Kutta method in the complex plane is proposed for numerically advancing the solutions of a system of first order differential equations in one external invariant satisfied by the master integrals related to a Feynman graph. Some results obtained for the 2-loop self-mass MI are reviewed. The method offers a reliable and robust approach to the direct and precise numerical evaluation of master integrals.

متن کاملDifferential Equations for Feynman Graph Amplitudes
It is by now well established that, by means of the integration by part identities [1], all the integrals occurring in the evaluation of a Feynman graph of given topology can be expressed in terms of a few independent master integrals. It is shown in this paper that the integration by part identities can be further used for obtaining a linear system of first order differential equations for the...
متن کاملDifferential equations and massive two - loop Bhabha scattering : the B
The two-loop box contributions to massive Bhabha scattering may be reduced to two-loop box master integrals (MIs) with five, six, and seven internal lines, plus vertices and self energies. The self-energy and vertex MIs may be solved analytically by the differential equations (DE) method. This is true for only few of the box masters. Here we describe some details of the analytical determination...
