We present a novel general Boltzmann machine with continuous visible
and discrete integer valued hidden states, yielding a parametric
density function involving a ratio of Riemann-Theta functions. After a
brief overview of the theory required to define this new ML
architecture, we show how the conditional expectation of a hidden
state for given visible states can be used as activation function...
We report on multi-loop integral computations executed on a
PEZY/Exascaler large-scale (immersion cooling) computing system.
The programming model requires a host program written in C++
with an OpenCL kernel. However the kernel can be generated by
the Goose compiler interface, which allows parallelizing loops
according to compiler directives. As an advantage, the executable
derived from a...
The high-energy community recently witnessed the first attempts at leveraging machine (deep) learning techniques for improving the efficiency of the numerical Monte-Carlo integrations that lie at the core of most high-energy physics simulations.
The first part of my talk will characterise the various type of integrations necessary in these simulations as well as the type of improvements that...
Massively parallel simulations generate increasing volumes of large data, whose exploitation requires large storage resources, efficient network and increasingly large post-processing facilities. In the coming era of exascale computations, there is an emerging need for new data analysis and visualization strategies.
Data manipulation, during the simulation and after, considerably slows down...
A key ingredient in an automated evaluation of two-loop multileg processes is a
fast and numerically stable evaluation of scalar Feynman integrals. In this respect, the calculation of two-loop three- and four-point functions in the general complex mass case so far relies on multidimensional numerical integration through sector decomposition whereby a reliable result has a high computing cost,...

e+e- experiments by the scan and ISR methods. It is extensively used
in the software packages for analysis of experiments at...
A high-precision calculation of the electron anomalous magnetic moment requires an evaluation of QED Feynman diagrams up to five independent loops. To make this calculation practically feasible it is necessary to remove all infrared and ultraviolet divergences before integration. A procedure of removing both infrared and ultraviolet divergences in each individual Feynman diagram will be...
While the Higgs boson couplings to other particles are increasingly well-measured by LHC experiments, it has proven difficult to set constraints on the Higgs trilinear self-coupling $\lambda$, principally due to the very low cross-section of Higgs boson pair production. We present the results of NLO QCD corrections to Higgs pair production with full top-quark mass dependence, where the...
In this talk, we consider some of the computational aspects encountered in recent computations of double Higgs boson production in gluon fusion. We consider the NLO virtual amplitude in the high-energy limit, and the NNLO virtual amplitude in the low-energy (or large top quark mass) limit. We discuss various optimizations which were necessary to produce our results.
We present an algorithm which allows to solve analytically linear systems of differential equations which factorize to first order. The solution is given in terms of iterated integrals over an alphabet where its structure is implied by the coefficient matrix of the differential equations. These systems appear in a large variety of higher order calculations in perturbative Quantum Field...
In this contribution I will discuss the practicalities of storing events from a NNLO calculation on disk with the view of "replaying" the simulation for a different analysis and under different conditions, such as a different PDF fit or a different scale setting.
We present the HepMC3 library designed to perform manipulations with
event records of High Energy Physics Monte Carlo Event Generators

functionality of previous versions and significantly extends them.
In comparison to the previous versions, the default event...

FORM is a symbolic manipulation system, which is especially advantageous for handling gigantic expressions with many small terms. Because FORM has been developed in tackling real problems in perturbative quantum field theory, it has some features useful in such problems, although FORM applications are not restricted to any specific research field. In this talk, we discuss recent developments...

Over the last few years manipulating expressions with millions of terms has become common in particle physics. Form is the de facto tool for manipulations of extremely large expressions, but it comes with some downsides. In this talk I will discuss an effort to modernize aspects of Form, such as the language and workflow, and the introduction of bindings to C and Python. This new tool is...
The Mathematica package STR (Star-Triangle Relations) is a recently developed tool designed to solve Feynman diagrams by means of the method of uniqueness in any (Euclidean) spacetime dimension D.

Tensor calculations are an important case in many natural sciences like mathematics and physics. To simplify such expressions, computer algebra is widely used. There are a number of approaches for solving this problem, namely, the component calculations, the calculations when tensor is considered as an abstract symbol with indices possessing some symmetry properties, and finally a pure...
Decoding the nature of Dark Matter (DM) is one of the most important problems of particle physics. DM can potentially provide unique signatures at collider and non-collider experiments. Details of these signatures which we expect to observe in the near future would allow us to delineate the properties of DM and the respective underlying theory Beyond the Standard Model (BSM). While there...
