In this paper we consider two-loop two-, three- and four-point diagrams with elliptic structure in the case of two different masses $m$ and $M$. The latter diagrams generally arise within NRQCD matching procedures and are relevant for…
In this paper, we aim to obtain a representation of Humbert's hy- pergeometric function in a series of Gauss's function 2F1. A few interesting results have also been deduced as special case of our main findings.
We review the hypergeometric function approach to Feynman diagrams. Special consideration is given to the construction of the Laurent expansion. As an illustration, we describe a collection of physically important one-loop vertex diagrams…

General one-loop integrals with arbitrary mass and kinematical parameters in $d$-dimensional space-time are studied. By using Bernstein theorem, a recursion relation is obtained which connects $(n+1)$-point to $n$-point functions. In…
In this talk, we discuss our recent computation of the two-loop sunrise integral with arbitrary non-zero particle masses. In two space-time dimensions, we arrive at a result in terms of elliptic dilogarithms. Near four space-time…
In this paper, we use some standard numerical techniques to approximate the hypergeometric function $$ {}_2F_1[a,b;c;x]=1+\frac{ab}{c}x+\frac{a(a+1)b(b+1)}{c(c+1)}\frac{x^2}{2!}+\cdots $$ for a range of parameter triples $(a,b,c)$ on the…
It is shown that the study of the imaginary part and of the corresponding dispersion relations of Feynman graph amplitudes within the differential equations method can provide a powerful tool for the solution of the equations, especially in…
We consider a two-loop sunrise integral with two different internal masses at pseudo-threshold kinematics and we solve it in terms of elliptic polylogarithms to all orders of the dimensional regulator.
