Elliptic polylogarithms and Feynman parameter integrals
read the original abstract
In this paper we study the calculation of multiloop Feynman integrals that cannot be expressed in terms of multiple polylogarithms. We show in detail how certain types of two- and three-point functions at two loops, which appear in the calculation of higher order corrections in QED, QCD and in the electroweak theory (EW), can naturally be expressed in terms of a recently introduced elliptic generalisation of multiple polylogarithms by direct integration over their Feynman parameter representation. Moreover, we show that in all examples that we considered a basis of pure Feynman integrals can be found.

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.

The $\mu$-extension of iterated integrals and nested sums
The authors construct μ-extensions of iterated integrals and nested sums over multiple alphabets, showing that they map polynomially in μ into the original function space (except for square-root cases) while preservin...
