Fast evaluation of Feynman integrals for Monte Carlo generators
read the original abstract
Building on the idea of numerically integrating differential equations satisfied by Feynman integrals, we propose a novel strategy for handling branch cuts within a numerical framework. We develop an integrator capable of evaluating a basis of integrals in both double and quadruple precision, achieving significantly reduced computational times compared to existing tools. We demonstrate the performance of our integrator by evaluating one- and two-loop five-point Feynman integrals with up to nine complex kinematic scales. In particular, we apply our method to the radiative return process of massive electron-positron annihilation into pions plus an energetic photon within scalar QED, for which we also build the differential equation, and extend it to the case where virtual photons acquire an auxiliary complex mass under the Generalised Vector-Meson Dominance model. Furthermore, we validate our approach on two integral families relevant for the two-loop production of $t\bar{t}+\text{jet}$. The integrator achieves, in double precision, execution times of the order of milliseconds for one-loop topologies and hundreds of milliseconds for the two-loop families, enabling for on-the-fly computation of Feynman integrals in Monte Carlo generators and a more efficient generation of grids for the topologies with prohibitive computational costs.
