Feynman Diagrams and Differential Equations
by Mario Argeri, Pierpaolo Mastrolia
Publisher: arXiv 2007
Number of pages: 56
Description:
We review in a pedagogical way the method of differential equations for the evaluation of D-dimensionally regulated Feynman integrals. After dealing with the general features of the technique, we discuss its application in the context of one- and two-loop corrections to the photon propagator in QED, by computing the Vacuum Polarization tensor exactly in D.
