Abstract:Differential equations for the one-loop vertex diagram in heavy quark effective theory (HQET) with arbitrary self-energy insertions and arbitrary residual energies are reduced to the ε form and used to obtain the ε expansion in terms of Goncharov polylogarithms.
“…For some Feynman diagrams, the hypergeometric representation follows from a direct integration of the parametric representation, see Ref. [43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51].…”
The relationship between Feynman diagrams and hypergeometric functions is discussed. Special attention is devoted to existing techniques for the construction of the -expansion. As an example, we present a detailed discussion of the construction of the -expansion of the Appell function 3 around rational values of parameters via an iterative solution of differential equations. Another interesting example is the Puiseux-type solution involving a differential operator generated by a hypergeometric function of three variables. The holonomic properties of the hypergeometric functions are briefly discussed.
