Scattering amplitudes at loop level can be expressed in terms of Feynman integrals. The latter satisfy partial differential equations in the kinematical variables. We argue that a good choice of basis for (multi-)loop integrals can lead to…
Feynman integrals are easily solved if their system of differential equations is in $\varepsilon$-form. In this letter we show by the explicit example of the kite integral family that an $\varepsilon$-form can even be achieved, if the…

Over the last year significant progress was made in the understanding of the computation of Feynman integrals using differential equations. These lectures give a review of these developments, while not assuming any prior knowledge of the…
Feynman integral reduction based on intersection theory provides an alternative to the traditional integration-by-parts method, yet its practical application has been constrained by the large number of variables required in the computation.…
In this talk we discuss Feynman integrals which are related to elliptic curves. We show with the help of an explicit example that in the set of master integrals more than one elliptic curve may occur. The technique of maximal cuts is a…
A tetragonal canonical curve is the complete intersection of two divisors on a scroll. The equations can be written in `rolling factors' format. For such homogeneous ideals we give methods to compute infinitesimal deformations. Deformations…
In this talk, we use several examples to elaborate on how a recently proposed algorithm can turn non-trivial Feynman integrals into an $\varepsilon $-factorised manner, regardless of their hidden geometric essence. In particular, some extra…
We study the axiomatisability of the iteration-free fragment of Propositional Dynamic Logic with Intersection and Tests. The combination of program composition, intersection and tests makes its proof-theory rather difficult. We develop a…
Feynman integrals are very often computed from their differential equations. It is not uncommon that the $\varepsilon$-factorised differential equation contains only dlog-forms with algebraic arguments, where the algebraic part is given by…
We present a simplification of the recursive algorithm for the evaluation of intersection numbers for differential $n$-forms, by combining the advantages emerging from the choice of delta-forms as generators of relative twisted cohomology…
Canonical matrices are given for (a) bilinear forms over an algebraically closed or real closed field; (b) sesquilinear forms over an algebraically closed field and over real quaternions with any nonidentity involution; and (c) sesquilinear…
We describe three algorithms for computer-aided symbolic multi-loop calculations that facilitated some recent novel results. First, we discuss an algorithm to derive the canonical form of an arbitrary Feynman integral in order to facilitate…
We consider the operation of intersecting with a locally principal Cartier divisor (i.e., a Cartier divisor which is principal on some neighborhood of its support). We describe this operation explicitly on the level of cycles and rational…
In this talk, we review a loop-by-loop approach used to generate differential equations for multi-scale (dual) Feynman integrals. We illustrate the method on a well-established example: the unequal mass elliptic sunrise.
In this paper we exploit factorisation properties of Picard-Fuchs operators to decouple differential equations for multi-scale Feynman integrals. The algorithm reduces the differential equations to blocks of the size of the order of the…
The path integral formulation of constrained systems leads to obtain the equations of motion as total differential equations in many variables. If these equations are integrable then one can constuct a valid and a canonical phase space…
Single scale Feynman integrals in quantum field theories obey difference or differential equations with respect to their discrete parameter $N$ or continuous parameter $x$. The analysis of these equations reveals to which order they…
We present a novel approach for loop integral reduction in the Feynman parametrization using intersection theory and relative cohomology. In this framework, Feynman integrals correspond to boundary-supported differential forms in the…
We present a loop-by-loop method for computing the differential equations of Feynman integrals using the recently developed dual form formalism. We give explicit prescriptions for the loop-by-loop fibration of multi-loop dual forms. Then,…
