The two-loop QCD corrections to vector boson pair production at hadron colliders involve a new class of Feynman integrals: two-loop four-point functions with two off-shell external legs. We describe their reduction to a small set of master…
For the calculation of multi-loop Feynman integrals, a novel numerical method, the Direct Computation Method (DCM) is developed. It is a combination of a numerical integration and a series extrapolation. In principle, DCM can handle…

In this paper we continue the work begun in 2002 on the identification of the analytical expressions of Feynman integrals which require the evaluation of multiple elliptic integrals. We rewrite and simplify the analytical expression of the…
All one-massless-loop Feynman diagrams could be written like a linear combination of scalar boxes, triangles an bubbles in $n$ dimensions plus rational terms. However, the four-point scalar integrals in $n+2$ dimensions are free of infrared…
In order to meet the precision requirements for the LHC and future colliders, next-to-next-to-leading order corrections to a wide range of processes are essential, making general automated tools highly desirable. Extending the strategy of…
We discuss the computational complexity of the perturbative evaluation of scattering amplitudes, both by the Caravaglios-Moretti algorithm and by direct evaluation of the individual diagrams. For a self-interacting scalar theory, we…
