Abstract

We review recent results in the theory of numbers and single-valued functions on the complex plane which arise in quantum field theory. We use the results to calculate the renormalization functions β\beta, γ\gamma, γm\gamma_m of dimensionally regularized ϕ4\phi^4 theory in the minimal subtraction scheme up to seven loops.
