Feynman integrals that have been evaluated in dimensional regularization can be written in terms of generalized hypergeometric functions. It is well known that properties of these functions are revealed in the framework of intersection theory. We propose further applications of intersection theory in the case of functions associated to positive geometries, in particular to construct a...
In this talk we discuss NNLO and N3LO order corrections
to the process gg->HH in the Standard Model. In particular,
we consider three-loop corrections to the form factors entering the virtual
corrections in the large-mt
limit and compute five expansion terms.
In the same approximation we also evaluate the
real radiation corrections at NNLO. Finally, we present
a building block for the...
The cusp anomalous dimension is a universal and ubiquitous quantity in QCD. It governs the IR structure of scattering amplitudes and is the key ingredient to (Sudakov) resummation for high-energy collider processes. I will report on recent analytic results on the matter dependence of the cusp anomalous dimension at four loops and discuss the calculational methods used to obtain them.
We present a fully-differential calculation of the $H \to b\overline{b}$ decay at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N3LO) accuracy. Our calculation considers diagrams in which the Higgs boson couples directly to the bottom quarks. In order to regulate the infrared divergences present at this order we use the Projection-to-Born technique coupled with N-jettiness slicing. After validating...
We present a calculation of the NLO QCD corrections to the loop-induced production of a photon pair through gluon fusion, including massive top quarks at two loops, where the two-loop integrals are calculated numerically. Matching the results for the virtual amplitude to a threshold expansion, we obtain accurate results around the top quark pair production threshold. We analyse how the top...
I this talk I will show the result of the 1100-digits calculation of the 4-loop QED contribution to the first derivative of the Dirac form factor at zero momentum transfer. An analytical fit has been obtained, and I will describe its structure. I will discuss also the contribution of this result to the Lamb shift of hydrogen.
