The solution to these difference equations in terms of harmonic sums can be constructed algorithmically over difference fields, the so-called Pi-Sigma-fields. We test the implementaion of the Mathematica package Sigma on examples from recent higher order perturbative calculations in Quantum Chromodynamics.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2007-09-12T08:07:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "difference equations", "multi-loop feynman integrals", "mathematica package sigma", "higher order perturbative calculations", "mellin space" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 760638, "adsabs": "2007arXiv0709.1769M" } } }
