Lecture Notes on Multi-loop Integral Reduction and Applied Algebraic Geometry
Yang Zhang · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2016
These notes are for the author's lectures, "Integral Reduction and Applied Algebraic Geometry Techniques" in the School and Workshop on Amplitudes in Beijing 2016. I introduce the applications of algebraic geometry methods on multi-loop scattering amplitudes, for instance, integrand reduction, residue computation in unitarity analysis and Integration-by-parts reduction. Illustrative examples and exercises are included in these notes.
