Some combinatorial interpretations in perturbative quantum field theory (1302.0080v2)
Published 1 Feb 2013 in math-ph, math.CO, and math.MP
Abstract: This paper will describe how combinatorial interpretations can help us understand the algebraic structure of two aspects of perturbative quantum field theory, namely analytic Dyson-Schwinger equations and periods of scalar Feynman graphs. The particular examples which will be looked at are, a better reduction to geometric series for Dyson-Schwinger equations, a subgraph which yields extra denominator reductions in scalar Feynman integrals, and an explanation of a trick of Brown and Schnetz to get one extra step in the denominator reduction of an important particular graph.
