We consider the complete set of planar two-loop five-point Feynman integrals with two off-shell external legs. These integrals are relevant, for instance, for the calculation of the second-order QCD corrections to the production of two…
I study the Feynman integrals needed to compute two-loop self-energy functions for general masses and external momenta. A convenient basis for these functions consists of the four integrals obtained at the end of Tarasov's recurrence…

The renormalization factors of the dimension-six effective operators for proton decay are evaluated at two-loop level in the supersymmetric grand unified theories. For this purpose, we use the previous results in which the quantum…
We find that unitarity cuts and the duality between color and kinematics are sufficient constraints to bootstrap $D$-dimensional QCD scattering amplitudes starting from three-particle tree-level. Specifically, we calculate tree level…
We emphasize the close relationship between zeta function methods and arbitrary spectral cutoff regularizations in curved spacetime. This yields, on the one hand, a physically sound and mathematically rigorous justification of the standard…
We describe a method to numerically compute multi-loop integrals, depending on one dimensionless parameter $x$ and the dimension $d$, in the whole kinematic range of $x$. The method is based on differential equations, which, however, do not…
We give an algorithm for obtaining expansions of massive two-loop Feynman graphs in powers of the external momentum around a finite, nonzero value of the momentum. This is based on our general two-loop formalism to reduce massive two-loop…
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…
Recently, we have developed a formalism to evaluate QCD loop diagrams with a single virtual gluon using a running coupling constant at the vertices. This corresponds to an all-order resummation of certain terms (the so-called renormalon…
Generalized unitarity cut of a Feynman diagram generates an algebraic system of polynomial equations. At high-loop levels, these equations may define a complex curve or a (hyper-)surface with complicated topology. We study the curve cases,…
The renormalization-group functions of the two-dimensional n-vector \lambda \phi^4 model are calculated in the five-loop approximation. Perturbative series for the \beta-function and critical exponents are resummed by the Pade-Borel-Leroy…
We suggest that at any given order of Feynman diagram calculation all renormalization group (RG)-predictable terms should be resummed to all-orders. This ``complete'' RG-improvement (CORGI) serves to separate the perturbation series into…

Extra-dimensional theories contain a number of almost degenerate states at each Kaluza-Klein level. If extra dimensional momentum is at least approximately conserved then the phenomenology of such nearly degenerate states depends crucially…
