abstract
In this paper, we give a detailed account of the algorithm outlined in [1] for Feynman integral reduction and $\varepsilon$-factorised differential equations. The algorithm consists of two steps. In the first step, we use a new geometric order relation in the integration-by-parts reduction to obtain a basis of master integrals, whose differential equations on the maximal cut are of a Laurent polynomial form in the regularisation parameter $\varepsilon$ and compatible with a filtration. This step works entirely with rational functions. In a second step, we provide a method to $\varepsilon$-factorise the aforementioned Laurent differential equations. The second step may introduce algebraic and transcendental functions. We illustrate the versatility of the algorithm by applying it to different examples with a wide range of complexity.

A new generating-function framework turns IBP relations into differential equations in a non-commutative algebra, yielding an iterative algorithm that derives symbolic reduction rules and checks completeness for topologies such as the sunset and double-box diagrams.
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.
