Reduction of Feynman Integrals in the Parametric Representation III: Integrals with Cuts

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2021-03-29 v2

Abstract

Phase space cuts are implemented by inserting Heaviside theta functions in the integrands of momentum-space Feynman integrals. By directly parametrizing theta functions and constructing integration-by-parts (IBP) identities in the parametric representation, we provide a systematic method to reduce integrals with cuts. Since the IBP method is available, it becomes possible to evaluate integrals with cuts by constructing and solving differential equations.
