Worldline representation of multiloop amplitudes in quantum electrodynamics

The worldline approach to quantum electrodynamics allows one to construct integral representations combining large numbers of Feynman diagrams. Here I review the state-of-the-art of a long-term effort to make this fact useful for actual multiloop calculations, such as of the scalar and spinor QED vacuum polarization functions and the electron anomalous magnetic moment. After a short historical introduction, and a discussion of the non-standard mathematical challenges involved, I focus on a recent calculation of the two-loop vacuum polarisation in scalar QED and some master integral formulas obtained in this context.

Worldline integration of photon amplitudes

It has been known for many years that methods inspired by string theory, such as the worldline formalism, allow one to write down integral representations that combine large numbers of Feynman diagrams of different topologies. However, to make this fact useful for state-of-the-art calculations one has to confront non-standard integration problems where neither the known integration techniques for Feynman diagrams nor algebraic manipulation programs are of much help. Here I will give a progress report on this long-term project focussing on photon amplitudes at one and two loops, in vacuum and in external fields.
