It is common knowledge that the Fourier transform enjoys the convolution property, i.e., it turns convolution in the time domain into multiplication in the frequency domain. It is probably less known that this property characterizes the…
Recent algorithmic improvements have made it possible to evaluate subdivergence-free (=primitive=skeleton) Feynman integrals in $\phi^4$ theory numerically up to 18 loops. By now, all such integrals up to 13 loops and several hundred…
In this note, we introduce and study position space Feynman quadrics that are the loci of divergences of the position space Feynman integrals for Euclidean massless scalar quantum field theories. We prove that the Feynman quadrics define…
It is proved that the five well-known identities universally satisfied by commutators in a group generate all universal commutator identities for commutators of weight 4.
Using the technique of the Fourier-Mukai transform we give an explicit set of generators of the ideal defining an algebraic curve as a subscheme of its Jacobian. Essentially, these ideals are generated by the Fay's trisecant identities.
We study Feynman checkers, an elementary model of electron motion introduced by R. Feynman. In this model, a checker moves on a checkerboard, and we count the turns. Feynman checkers are also known as a one-dimensional quantum walk. We…
We provide new proofs to five of Ramanujan's intriguing identities on false theta functions without using the Rogers-Fine identity and Bailey transforms.
In this talk we discuss mathematical structures associated to Feynman graphs. Feynman graphs are the backbone of calculations in perturbative quantum field theory. The mathematical structures -- apart from being of interest in their own…
Feynman path integrals are now a standard tool in quantum physics and their use in differential geometry leads to new mathematical insights. A logical treatment of quantum phenomena seems to require a sustained mathematical analysis of path…
We prove a neat factorization property of Feynman graphs in covariant perturbation theory. The contribution of the graph to the effective action is written as a product of a massless scalar momentum integral that only depends on the basic…
The purpose of this paper is to show that, under certain combinatorial conditions on the graph, parametric Feynman integrals can be realized as periods on the complement of the determinant hypersurface in an affine space depending on the…
We consider the Lie group of smooth diffeomorphisms Diff$(M)$ of a simple polytope $M$ in the euclidean space. Simple polytopes are special cases of manifolds with corners. The geometric setting allows to study in particular, the subgroup…
We reduce a strong version of the twist conjecture for Artin groups to Artin groups whose defining graphs have no separating vertices. This produces new examples of Artin groups satisfying the conjecture, and sheds more light on the…
We give a characterization of 3-connected graphs which are planar and forbid cube, octahedron, and $H$ minors, where $H$ is the graph which is one $\Delta-Y$ away from each of the cube and the octahedron. Next we say a graph is Feynman…
We construct the graphs of Hoffman-Singleton, Higman-Sims, and McLaughlin from certain relations on the set of non-singular conics totally tangent to the Hermitian curve of degree 6 in characteristic 5. We then interpret this geometric…
Following Bridgeman, we demonstrate several families of infinite dilogarithm identities associated with Fibonacci numbers, Lucas numbers, convergents of continued fractions of even periods, and terms arising from various recurrence…
In this paper, we derive eight basic identities of symmetry in three variables related to Euler polynomials and alternating power sums. These and most of their corollaries are new, since there have been results only about identities of…
We provide a short proof of an algebraic identity. For integers $n\ge 2$ and variables $x,y,z$, it represents $(x^n+y^n-z^n)$ as a value of the quadratic form $\mathcal A^2+\mathcal B^2-\mathcal C^2$ after multiplication by an explicit…
Referring to recent works concerning the functional renormalization group for tensorial group fields theories [arXiv:1803.09902] and [arXiv:1809.00247], this paper gives in-depth explanation for, the ambiguity around the search of fixed…
The first paper of this series introduced objects (elements of twisted relative cohomology) that are Poincar\'e dual to Feynman integrals. We show how to use the pairing between these spaces -- an algebraic invariant called the intersection…
