Integral representation for three-loop banana graph

Abstract

It has recently been shown that two-loop kite-type diagrams can be computed analytically in terms of iterated integrals with algebraic kernels. This result was obtained using a new integral representation for two-loop sunset subgraphs. In this paper, we have developed a similar representation for a three-loop banana integral in $d=2-2\epsilon$ dimensions. This answer can be generalized up to any given order in the $\epsilon$-expansion and can be calculated numerically both below and above the threshold. We also demonstrate how this result can be used to compute more complex three-loop integrals containing the three-loop banana as a subgraph.
