Kira 1.2 Release Notes

Abstract

We present the Feynman integral reduction program Kira 1.2 and describe its new features and other changes w.r.t. the previous versions. The main new features include a much faster equation generator, more flexible seed specification options, several predefined integral orderings, the reduction of systems of user-provided equations and a new technique to simplify coefficients by sampling variables over integers. Furthermore, we provide a collection of recommendations on how to use the program efficiently. This version has overall improvements in runtime for all reduction tasks compared to the previous versions of Kira.
