80. LoopTransport: a library to solve differential equation systems using generalized series expansions

Tobias Neumann

Recent developments have shown that the numerical solution of loop integrals
using generalized series expansions of associated differential equation (DE)
systems allows for the calculation of state-of-the-art multi-loop problems with
many scales. In principle the bottleneck of efficient numerical evaluations is
then reduced to the IBP reduction to master integrals. We present a library...

83. External leg corrections as an origin of large logarithms

The appearance of large logarithmic corrections is a well-known phenomenon in the presence of widely separated mass scales. In this talk, we point out the existence of large Sudakov-like logarithmic contributions related to external-leg corrections of heavy scalar particles which cannot be resummed straightforwardly using renormalisation group equations. Based on a toy model, we discuss in...

87. Two-loop corrections to the Classical Hamiltonian for Spinning Black Holes

Manfred Kraus (Florida State University)

We present our recent computation of classical gravitational potentials for spinning black holes.
The work is based on the modern scattering amplitude approach.
A wide range of techniques ranging from numerical unitarity, loop integration,Integration-by-parts,
expansion-by-regions and effective field theories are used in order to extract the classical information
from quantum scattering amplitudes.
