Abstract

We describe a systematic approach to cast the differential equation for the ll-loop equal mass banana integral into an ε\varepsilon-factorised form. With the known boundary value at a specific point we obtain systematically the term of order jj in the expansion in the dimensional regularisation parameter ε\varepsilon for any loop ll. The approach is based on properties of Calabi-Yau operators, and in particular on self-duality.
