A KLT-like construction for multi-Regge amplitudes

Konstantin Baune, Johannes Broedel

Inspired by the calculational steps originally performed by Kawai, Lewellen and Tye, we decompose scattering amplitudes with single-valued coefficients obtained in the multi-Regge-…

Meromorphic modular forms and the three-loop equal-mass banana integral

Johannes Broedel, Claude Duhr, Nils Matthes

We consider a class of differential equations for multi-loop Feynman integrals which can be solved to all orders in dimensional regularisation in terms of iterated integrals of mer…

A geometrical framework for amplitude recursions: bridging between trees and loops

Johannes Broedel, André Kaderli

Various methods for the recursive evaluation of scattering amplitudes in quantum field theory and string theory have been put forward during the last couple of years. In these proc…

Amplitude recursions with an extra marked point

Johannes Broedel, Andre Kaderli

The recursive calculation of Selberg integrals by Aomoto and Terasoma using the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation and the Drinfeld associator makes use of an auxiliary point and faci…

An analytic solution for the equal-mass banana graph

Johannes Broedel, Claude Duhr, Falko Dulat +3

We present fully analytic results for all master integrals for the three-loop banana graph with four equal and non-zero masses. The results are remarkably simple and all integrals…

Functional relations for elliptic polylogarithms

Johannes Broedel, Andre Kaderli

Numerous examples of functional relations for multiple polylogarithms are known. For elliptic polylogarithms, however, tools for the exploration of functional relations are availab…

Elliptic Feynman integrals and pure functions

Johannes Broedel, Claude Duhr, Falko Dulat +2

We propose a variant of elliptic multiple polylogarithms that have at most logarithmic singularities in all variables and satisfy a differential equation without homogeneous term.…

From modular forms to differential equations for Feynman integrals

Johannes Broedel, Claude Duhr, Falko Dulat +2

In these proceedings we discuss a representation for modular forms that is more suitable for their application to the calculation of Feynman integrals in the context of iterated in…

From elliptic multiple zeta values to modular graph functions: open and closed strings at one loop

Johannes Broedel, Oliver Schlotterer, Federico Zerbini

We relate one-loop scattering amplitudes of massless open- and closed-string states at the level of their low-energy expansion. The modular graph functions resulting from integrati…
