An Introduction to Motivic Feynman Integrals
Claudia Rella Section de Mathématiques, Université de Genève, Genève, CH-1211 Switzerland
Abstract:
This article gives a short step-by-step introduction to the representation of parametric Feynman integrals in scalar perturbative quantum field theory as periods of motives. The application of motivic Galois theory to the algebro-geometric and categorical structures underlying Feynman graphs is reviewed up to the current state of research. The example of primitive log-divergent Feynman graphs in scalar massless $\phi^4$ quantum field theory is analysed in detail.
Keywords:
scattering amplitudes, Feynman diagrams, multiple zeta values, Hodge structures, periods of motives, Galois theory, Tannakian categories.
