It was observed that hyperlogarithms provide a tool to carry out Feynman integrals. So far, this method has been applied successfully to finite single-scale processes. However, it can be employed in more general situations. We give examples…
We consider the two-loop massless propagator-type Feynman diagram with an arbitrary (non-integer) index on the central line. We analytically prove the equality of the two well-known results existing in the literature which express this…
This paper shows that certain $\,_{3}F_{4}$ hypergeometric functions may be expanded in sums of pair products of $\,_{2}F_{3}$ functions. This expands the class of hypergeometric functions having summation theorems beyond those expressible…
It is known that one-loop Feynman integrals possess an algebraic structure encoding some of their analytic properties called the coaction, which can be written in terms of Feynman integrals and their cuts. This diagrammatic coaction, and…

We derive a convergent expansion of the generalized hypergeometric function ${}_{p-1}F_p$ in terms of the Bessel functions ${}_{0}F_1$ that holds uniformly with respect to the argument in any horizontal strip of the complex plane. We…
The diagrammatic coaction encodes the analytic structure of Feynman integrals by mapping any given Feynman diagram into a tensor product of diagrams defined by contractions and cuts of the original diagram. Feynman integrals evaluate to…

We consider the uniform asymptotic expansion for the Gauss hypergeometric function \[F(a+\epsilon\lambda,m;c+\lambda;x),\qquad \lambda\to+\infty\] for $x<1$ and positive integer $m$ when the parameter $\epsilon>1$ and the constants $a$ and…
Representations are derived for the basic scalar one-loop vertex Feynman integrals as meromorphic functions of the space-time dimension $d$ in terms of (generalized) hypergeometric functions $_2F_1$ and $F_1$. Values at asymptotic or…

We examine the expansions of the solutions of the general Heun equation in terms of the Gauss hypergeometric functions. We present several expansions using functions, the forms of which differ from those applied before. In general, the…
In this paper we study the calculation of multiloop Feynman integrals that cannot be expressed in terms of multiple polylogarithms. We show in detail how certain types of two- and three-point functions at two loops, which appear in the…
We introduce a systematic approach to express generating functions for the enumeration of maps on surfaces of high genus in terms of a single generating function relevant to planar surfaces. Central to this work is the comparison of two…
Results are presented for some infinite series appearing in Feynman diagram calculations, many of which are similar to the Euler series. These include both one-, two- and three-dimensional series. The sums of these series can be evaluated…
