Nontrivial One-loop Recursive Reduction Relation
arXiv:2209.11428 · doi:10.1007/JHEP07(2023)051
Abstract
In arXiv:2204.03190, we proposed a universal method to reduce one-loop integrals with both tensor structure and higher-power propagators. But the method is quite redundant as it does not utilize the results of lower rank cases when addressing certain tensor integrals. Recently, we found a remarkable recursion relation arXiv:2203.16881,2205.03000, where a tensor integral is reduced to lower-rank integrals and \textit{lower terms} corresponding to integrals with one or more propagators being canceled. However, the expression of the lower terms is unknown. In this paper, we derive this non-trivial recursion relation for non-degenerate and degenerate cases and provides an explicit expression for the lower terms, thus simplifying and speeding up the reduction process.
