Among the unitarity cuts of massless 4-loop propagators two classes have remained unknown until recently: 2-loop 3-particle cuts, and 1-loop 4-particle cuts. In this article we shall discuss the calculation that completes the master…
We extend the notion of generalized unitarity cuts to accommodate loop integrals with higher powers of propagators. Such integrals frequently arise in for example integration-by-parts identities, Schwinger parametrizations and Mellin-Barnes…

We show that the integration-by-parts reductions of various two-loop integral topologies can be efficiently obtained by applying unitarity cuts to a specific set of subgraphs and solving associated polynomial (syzygy) equations.
We extend the maximal-unitarity formalism at two loops to double-box integrals with four massive external legs. These are relevant for higher-point processes, as well as for heavy vector rescattering, VV -> VV. In this formalism, the…
