Generalized recurrence relations for two-loop propagator integrals with arbitrary masses

Abstract: An algorithm for calculating two-loop propagator type Feynman diagrams with arbitrary masses and external momentum is proposed. Recurrence relations allowing to express any scalar integral in terms of basic integrals are given. A minimal set consisting of 15 essentially two-loop and 15 products of one-loop basic integrals is found. Tensor integrals and integrals with irreducible numerators are represented as a combination of scalar ones with a higher space-time dimension which are reduced to the basic set by u… Show more

“…The contraction of the Dirac and γ 5 matrices was done with FeynCalc [100]. The reduction to master integrals was performed using the program TARCER [101], which is based on a reduction algorithm proposed by Tarasov [102,103] and which is included in FeynCalc. Additional checks of the calculation of the self-energy diagrams have been carried out applying in-house mathematica routines for the evaluation of scalar self-energy diagrams but also using the programs OneCalc and TwoCalc [80,104] for the contraction of Dirac matrices, the evaluation of Dirac traces and the tensor reduction of the integrals in combination with the package FeynArts for the amplitude generation.…”

“…All the diagrams entering the calculation ofα(m Z ), ∆r W ,ρ were generated using the Mathematica package Feynarts [45]. The reduction of the two-loop diagrams to scalar integrals was done using the code Tarcer [46] which uses the algorithm by Tarasov [47] and is now part of the Feyncalc [48] package. In order to extract the vertex and box contributions in ∆r W from the relevant diagrams, we used the projector presented in ref.…”
