abstract
We show that the Laurent series of the two-loop kite integral in $D=4-2\varepsilon$ space-time dimensions can be expressed in each order of the series expansion in terms of elliptic generalisations of (multiple) polylogarithms. Using differential equations we present an iterative method to compute any desired order. As an example, we give the first three orders explicitly.

Feynman integrals selected for unit leading singularities in complex geometries satisfy epsilon-factorized differential equations with new transcendental functions corresponding to periods and differential forms in the Gauss-Manin connection.
The extra-involution mechanism for genus drop is a special case of unramified double covering between curves, which explains genus drops with non-hyperelliptic to hyperelliptic transitions in certain three-loop Feynman integrals.
