Feynman integrals can be expanded asymptotically with respect to some small parameters at the integrand level, a technique known as the expansion by regions. A naive expansion by regions may break down due to divergences not regulated by…

Landau's work on the singularities of Feynman diagrams suggests that they can only be of three types: either poles, logarithmic divergences, or the roots of quadratic polynomials. On the other hand, many Feynman integrals exist whose…
