Title: A Hopf algebra for Feynman diagrams and integral
Speaker: Ruth Britto (Trinity College Dublin)
Abstract: I will present a combinatorial operation on one-loop Feynman diagrams, described by cutting and pinching edges, that corresponds to the Hopf-algebraic coaction on the multiple polylogarithms resulting from their integration. A generalization of this operation, expressed simply in terms of master integrands paired with master contours, can be applied directly to larger classes of functions including hypergeometric functions. I will discuss applications to analyses of discontinuities of and differential equations for Feynman diagrams.
Time: Tuesday 6th February 2018, 2.30pm.
Place: Lecture Room, School of Theoretical Physics, DIAS, 10 Burlington Road, Dublin 4.

Happiest of Birthdays to Emeritus Professor of the School of Cosmic Physics at DIAS @Luke_Drury 🎂
Customs including bonfires🔥 goddess celebration, banishing evil spirits 👺and festivals of feasting and dancing. Traditions varied depending Celtic regions as did the name of the goddess 😇 @SCSLibrary #celtic #traditions #festivals
The #SummerSolstice, the day when there are more hours of daylight than any other time of the year. Due the axial tilt of the earth being at its closest to the sun. It was one of the sacred Celtic days which they would celebrate through a variety of customs. #DIASdiscovers
Congrats to @mitchelloconnor on the historic launch of the Strategic Academic Leadership Initiative today. twitter.com/merrionstreet/…
