Analytic results for the planar double box integral relevant to top-pair production with a closed top loop
read the original abstract
In this article we give the details on the analytic calculation of the master integrals for the planar double box integral relevant to top-pair production with a closed top loop. We show that these integrals can be computed systematically to all order in the dimensional regularisation parameter $\varepsilon$. This is done by transforming the system of differential equations into a form linear in $\varepsilon$, where the $\varepsilon^0$-part is a strictly lower triangular matrix. Explicit results in terms of iterated integrals are presented for the terms relevant to NNLO calculations.

The spectrum of Feynman-integral geometries at two loops
Two-loop Feynman integrals involve Riemann spheres, elliptic curves, hyperelliptic curves of genus 2 and 3, K3 surfaces, and a rationalizable Del Pezzo surface of degree 2.

Genus drop involving non-hyperelliptic curves in Feynman integrals
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 Feynma...
