Computations in Theoretical Physics: Techniques and Methods
Oral
In high-energy physics experiments performed at current colliders such as the LHC, the flood of precision data requires matching theoretical efforts, in order extract the underlying event's structure.
To this end, in this talk I will showcase a few techniques and results related to investigations of the structure of higher-loop Feynman integrals which provide one of the basic building...

A geometrical approach to the calculation of N-point Feynman diagrams is reviewed. It is shown that the geometrical splitting yields useful connections between Feynman integrals with different momenta and masses. It is demonstrated how these results can be used to reduce the number of variables in the occurring functions.

We propose a new set of Master Integrals which can be used as a basis for multiloop calculation in any gauge massless field theory. In these theories we consider three-point Feynman diagrams with arbitrary number of loops. The corresponding multiloop integrals may be decomposed in terms of this set of the Master Integrals. We construct a new reduction procedure which we apply to perform this...

Using R* operation, IBP and integration of hyperlogarithms we
calculate the 6-loop beta function of the $\phi^4$ model.
One of the remarkable features of this result is that the 6 loop term
contains multiple zeta values. We discuss different aspects of this
calculation as well as series resummation and predictions for the 6
loop term based on the 1979 paper by Kazakov, Shirkov and Tarasov.

We present an extraction of the MSbar mass of bottom quark from the Upsilon(1S) system. We account for the leading renormalon effects in the extraction. We work in the renormalon subtracted scheme in order to control the divergence of the perturbation series coming from the pole mass renormalon, and we carefully take into account the charm quark effects.

After the discovery of a Higgs boson during Run I at the LHC,
Higgs physics has entered an era of precision measurements. Among
the different production channels, gluon-gluon
fusion (ggf) is the larges one, and constitutes also an
irreducible background to the very important vector boson fusion
process. A precise knowledge of the ggf channel is therefore
fundamental. In this talk I will...

The semi-analytical expressions for the flavour-dependence of the O(\alpha_s^4) QCD correction between pole and running heavy quark masses is obtained using the least square method. The results are compared with the estimates obtained with the help of different approaches. The asymptotic structure of the presnted perturbative series is discussed/ The necessity of performing extra analytical...
