We describe an algorithm to organize Feynman integrals in terms of their infrared properties. Our approach builds upon the theory of Landau singularities, which we use to classify all configurations of loop momenta that can give rise to infrared divergences. We then construct bases of numerators for arbitrary Feynman integrals, which cancel all singularities and render the integrals finite. Through the same analysis, one can also classify so-called evanescent and evanescently finite Feynman integrals. These are integrals whose vanishing or finiteness relies on properties of dimensional regularization. To illustrate the use of these integrals, we display how to obtain a simpler form for the leading-color two-loop four-gluon scattering amplitude through the choice of a suitable basis of finite integrals. In particular, when all gluon helicities are equal, we show that with our basis the most complicated double-box integrals do not contribute to the finite remainder of the scattering amplitude.

Pseudo-Evanescent Feynman Integrals from Local Subtraction
Local subtraction reduces pseudo-evanescent Feynman integrals to products of one-loop integrals or one-fold integrals, with the finite part of the two-loop all-plus five-point amplitude arising solely from ultraviolet...

Fano and Reflexive Polytopes from Feynman Integrals
Quasi-finite Feynman integrals produce sparse Fano and reflexive polytopes that encode degenerate Calabi-Yau varieties and link to del Pezzo surfaces, K3 surfaces, and Calabi-Yau threefolds.
