A Feynman Diagram Analyser DIANA

A C-program DIANA (DIagram ANAlyser) for the automatic Feynman diagram evaluation is presented. It consists of two parts: the analyzer of diagrams and the interpreter of a special text manipulating language. This language is used to create a source code for analytical or numerical evaluations and to keep the control of the process in general.Comment: 20 pages, latex, 3 eps figure

A Feynman diagram analyzer DIANA: recent development

New developments concerning the extension of the Feynman diagram analyzer DIANA are presented. We discuss new graphic facilities, application of DIANA to processes with Majorana fermions and different approaches to automation of momenta distribution.Comment: 2 pages, Latex using espcrc2.sty, 3 figures using 3 eps files.

UV-finite scalar field theory with unitarity

In this paper we show how to define the UV completion of a scalar field theory such that it is both UV-finite and perturbatively unitary. In the UV completed theory, the propagator is an infinite sum of ordinary propagators. To eliminate the UV divergences, we choose the coefficients and masses in the propagator to satisfy certain algebraic relations, and define the infinite sums involved in Feynman diagram calculation by analytic continuation. Unitarity can be proved relatively easily by Cutkosky's rules. The theory is equivalent to infinitely many particles with specific masses and interactions. We take the $\phi^4$ theory as an example and demonstrate our idea through explicit Feynman diagram computation.Comment: 14 pages, references adde

A steepest descent calculation of RNA pseudoknots

We enumerate possible topologies of pseudoknots in single-stranded RNA molecules. We use a steepest-descent approximation in the large N matrix field theory, and a Feynman diagram formalism to describe the resulting pseudoknot structure

Systematic Implementation of Implicit Regularization for Multi-Loop Feynman Diagrams

Implicit Regularization (IReg) is a candidate to become an invariant framework in momentum space to perform Feynman diagram calculations to arbitrary loop order. In this work we present a systematic implementation of our method that automatically displays the terms to be subtracted by Bogoliubov's recursion formula. Therefore, we achieve a twofold objective: we show that the IReg program respects unitarity, locality and Lorentz invariance and we show that our method is consistent since we are able to display the divergent content of a multi-loop amplitude in a well defined set of basic divergent integrals in one loop momentum only which is the essence of IReg. Moreover, we conjecture that momentum routing invariance in the loops, which has been shown to be connected with gauge symmetry, is a fundamental symmetry of any Feynman diagram in a renormalizable quantum field theory

A simple algorithm for automatic Feynman diagram generation

An algorithm for the automatic Feynman diagram (FD) generation is presented in this paper. The algorithm starts directly from the definition formula of FD, and is simple in concept and easy for coding. The symmetry factor for each FD is naturally generated. It is expected to bring convenience for the researchers who are studying new calculation techniques or making new calculation tools and for the researchers who are studying effective field theory. A C-program made from the algorithm is also presented, which is short, fast, yet very general purpose: it receives arbitrary user defined model and arbitrary process as input and generates FD's at any order.Comment: 11 pages, 2 figure
