Publisher Description: This is a textbook version of my previous book [190]. Problems and solutions have been included, Appendix G has been added, more details have been presented, recent publications on evaluating Feynman integrals have been taken into account and the bibliography has been updated. 1 ThegoalofthebookistodescribeindetailhowFeynmanintegrals canbe evaluatedanalytically.TheproblemofevaluatingLorentz-covariantFeynman integrals over loop momenta originated in the early days of perturbative quantum ?eld theory. Over a span of more than ?fty years, a great variety of methodsforevaluatingFeynmanintegralshasbeendeveloped.Mostpowerful modern methods are described in this book. Iunderstandthatifanotherperson-inparticularoneactivelyinvolvedin developing methods for Feynman integral evaluation - wrote a book on this subject, he or she would probably concentrate on some other methods and would rank the methods as most important and less important in a di?erent order. I believe, however, that my choice is reasonable. At least I have tried to concentrate on the methods that have been used recently in the most sophisticated calculations, in which world records in the Feynman integral 'sport' were achieved. |
