Analytic Continuation of Massless Two-Loop Four-Point Functions
CERN-TH/2002-145 hep-ph/0207020 July 2002 Analytic Continuation of Massless Two-Loop Four-Point Functions T. Gehrmanna and E. Remiddib a Theory Division, CERN, CH-1211 Geneva 23, Switzerland b Dipartimento di Fisica, Universit`a di Bologna and INFN, Sezione di Bologna, I-40126 Bologna, Italy Abstract We describe the analytic continuation of two-loop four-point functions with one off-shell external leg and internal massless propagators from the Euclidean region of space-like 1 3decaytoMinkowskian regions relevant to all 1 3and2 2 reactions with one space-like or time-like! off-shell external leg. Our results can be used! to derive two-loop! master integrals and unrenormalized matrix elements for hadronic vector-boson-plus-jet production and deep inelastic two-plus-one-jet production, from results previously obtained for three-jet production in electron{positron annihilation. 1 Introduction In recent years, considerable progress has been made towards the extension of QCD calculations of jet observables towards the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in perturbation theory. One of the main ingredients in such calculations are the two-loop virtual corrections to the multi leg matrix elements relevant to jet physics, which describe either 1 3 decay or 2 2 scattering reactions: two-loop four-point functions with massless internal propagators and→ up to one off-shell→ external leg. Using dimensional regularization [1, 2] with d = 4 dimensions as regulator for ultraviolet and infrared divergences, the large number of different integrals6 appearing in the two-loop Feynman amplitudes for 2 2 scattering or 1 3 decay processes can be reduced to a small number of master integrals. -
Symmetric Rigidity for Circle Endomorphisms with Bounded Geometry
SYMMETRIC RIGIDITY FOR CIRCLE ENDOMORPHISMS WITH BOUNDED GEOMETRY JOHN ADAMSKI, YUNCHUN HU, YUNPING JIANG, AND ZHE WANG Abstract. Let f and g be two circle endomorphisms of degree d ≥ 2 such that each has bounded geometry, preserves the Lebesgue measure, and fixes 1. Let h fixing 1 be the topological conjugacy from f to g. That is, h ◦ f = g ◦ h. We prove that h is a symmetric circle homeomorphism if and only if h = Id. Many other rigidity results in circle dynamics follow from this very general symmetric rigidity result. 1. Introduction A remarkable result in geometry is the so-called Mostow rigidity theorem. This result assures that two closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds are isometrically equivalent if they are homeomorphically equivalent [18]. A closed hyperbolic 3-manifold can be viewed as the quotient space of a Kleinian group acting on the open unit ball in the 3-Euclidean space. So a homeomorphic equivalence between two closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds can be lifted to a homeomorphism of the open unit ball preserving group actions. The homeomorphism can be extended to the boundary of the open unit ball as a boundary map. The boundary is the Riemann sphere and the boundary map is a quasi-conformal homeomorphism.

Hyder ALL RIGHTS RESERVED i Abstract An Explicit Formula for Dirichlet's L-Function by Shannon M. Hyder The Riemann zeta function has a deep connection to the distribution of primes. In 1911 Landau proved that, for every fixed x > 1, X T xρ = − Λ(x) + O(log T ) 2π 0<γ≤T as T ! 1. Here ρ = β + iγ denotes a complex zero of the zeta function and Λ(x) is an extension of the usual von Mangoldt function, so that Λ(x) = log p if x is a positive integral power of a prime p and Λ(x) = 0 for all other real values of x. -
Generalizations of the Riemann Integral: an Investigation of the Henstock Integral
Generalizations of the Riemann Integral: An Investigation of the Henstock Integral Jonathan Wells May 15, 2011 Abstract The Henstock integral, a generalization of the Riemann integral that makes use of the δ-fine tagged partition, is studied. We first consider Lebesgue’s Criterion for Riemann Integrability, which states that a func- tion is Riemann integrable if and only if it is bounded and continuous almost everywhere, before investigating several theoretical shortcomings of the Riemann integral. Despite the inverse relationship between integra- tion and differentiation given by the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, we find that not every derivative is Riemann integrable. We also find that the strong condition of uniform convergence must be applied to guarantee that the limit of a sequence of Riemann integrable functions remains in- tegrable. However, by slightly altering the way that tagged partitions are formed, we are able to construct a definition for the integral that allows for the integration of a much wider class of functions. We investigate sev- eral properties of this generalized Riemann integral. We also demonstrate that every derivative is Henstock integrable, and that the much looser requirements of the Monotone Convergence Theorem guarantee that the limit of a sequence of Henstock integrable functions is integrable. This paper is written without the use of Lebesgue measure theory.

I would also like to acknowledge Kathryn Barich and Kailey Bolles for their assistance in the editing process. Introduction As the workhorse of modern analysis, the integral is without question one of the most familiar pieces of the calculus sequence. -

[Math.AG] 2 Jul 2015 Ic Oetime: Some and Since Time, of People
MONODROMY AND NORMAL FORMS FABRIZIO CATANESE Abstract. We discuss the history of the monodromy theorem, starting from Weierstraß, and the concept of monodromy group. From this viewpoint we compare then the Weierstraß, the Le- gendre and other normal forms for elliptic curves, explaining their geometric meaning and distinguishing them by their stabilizer in PSL(2, Z) and their monodromy. Then we focus on the birth of the concept of the Jacobian variety, and the geometrization of the theory of Abelian functions and integrals. We end illustrating the methods of complex analysis in the simplest issue, the difference equation f(z)= g(z + 1) g(z) on C. − Contents Introduction 1 1. The monodromy theorem 3 1.1.

Chapter 4 the Riemann Zeta Function and L-Functions
Chapter 4 The Riemann zeta function and L-functions 4.1 Basic facts We prove some results that will be used in the proof of the Prime Number Theorem (for arithmetic progressions). The L-function of a Dirichlet character χ modulo q is defined by 1 X L(s; χ) = χ(n)n−s: n=1 P1 −s We view ζ(s) = n=1 n as the L-function of the principal character modulo 1, (1) (1) more precisely, ζ(s) = L(s; χ0 ), where χ0 (n) = 1 for all n 2 Z. We first prove that ζ(s) has an analytic continuation to fs 2 C : Re s > 0gnf1g. We use an important summation formula, due to Euler. Lemma 4.1 (Euler's summation formula). Let a; b be integers with a < b and f :[a; b] ! C a continuously differentiable function. Then b X Z b Z b f(n) = f(x)dx + f(a) + (x − [x])f 0(x)dx: n=a a a 105 Remark. This result often occurs in the more symmetric form b Z b Z b X 1 1 0 f(n) = f(x)dx + 2 (f(a) + f(b)) + (x − [x] − 2 )f (x)dx: n=a a a Proof. Let n 2 fa; a + 1; : : : ; b − 1g. Then Z n+1 Z n+1 x − [x]f 0(x)dx = (x − n)f 0(x)dx n n h in+1 Z n+1 Z n+1 = (x − n)f(x) − f(x)dx = f(n + 1) − f(x)dx: n n n By summing over n we get b Z b X Z b (x − [x])f 0(x)dx = f(n) − f(x)dx; a n=a+1 a which implies at once Lemma 4.1. -

Lecture 15-16 : Riemann Integration Integration Is Concerned with the Problem of finding the Area of a Region Under a Curve
1 Lecture 15-16 : Riemann Integration Integration is concerned with the problem of ¯nding the area of a region under a curve. Let us start with a simple problem : Find the area A of the region enclosed by a circle of radius r. For an arbitrary n, consider the n equal inscribed and superscibed triangles as shown in Figure 1. f(x) f(x) π 2 n O a b O a b Figure 1 Figure 2 Since A is between the total areas of the inscribed and superscribed triangles, we have nr2sin(¼=n)cos(¼=n) · A · nr2tan(¼=n): By sandwich theorem, A = ¼r2: We will use this idea to de¯ne and evaluate the area of the region under a graph of a function. Suppose f is a non-negative function de¯ned on the interval [a; b]: We ¯rst subdivide the interval into a ¯nite number of subintervals. Then we squeeze the area of the region under the graph of f between the areas of the inscribed and superscribed rectangles constructed over the subintervals as shown in Figure 2. If the total areas of the inscribed and superscribed rectangles converge to the same limit as we make the partition of [a; b] ¯ner and ¯ner then the area of the region under the graph of f can be de¯ned as this limit and f is said to be integrable. Let us de¯ne whatever has been explained above formally. The Riemann Integral Let [a; b] be a given interval. A partition P of [a; b] is a ¯nite set of points x0; x1; x2; : : : ; xn such that a = x0 · x1 · ¢ ¢ ¢ · xn¡1 · xn = b. -
Introduction to Analytic Number Theory More About the Gamma Function We Collect Some More Facts About Γ(S)
Math 259: Introduction to Analytic Number Theory More about the Gamma function We collect some more facts about Γ(s) as a function of a complex variable that will figure in our treatment of ζ(s) and L(s, χ). All of these, and most of the Exercises, are standard textbook fare; one basic reference is Ch. XII (pp. 235–264) of [WW 1940]. One reason for not just citing Whittaker & Watson is that some of the results concerning Euler’s integrals B and Γ have close analogues in the Gauss and Jacobi sums associated to Dirichlet characters, and we shall need these analogues before long. The product formula for Γ(s). Recall that Γ(s) has simple poles at s = 0, −1, −2,... and no zeros. We readily concoct a product that has the same behavior: let ∞ 1 Y . s g(s) := es/k 1 + , s k k=1 the product converging uniformly in compact subsets of C − {0, −1, −2,...} because ex/(1 + x) = 1 + O(x2) for small x. Then Γ/g is an entire function with neither poles nor zeros, so it can be written as exp α(s) for some entire function α. We show that α(s) = −γs, where γ = 0.57721566490 ... is Euler’s constant: N X 1 γ := lim − log N + . N→∞ k k=1 That is, we show: Lemma. The Gamma function has the product formulas ∞ N ! e−γs Y . s 1 Y k Γ(s) = e−γsg(s) = es/k 1 + = lim N s . (1) s k s N→∞ s + k k=1 k=1 Proof : For s 6= 0, −1, −2,..., the quotient g(s + 1)/g(s) is the limit as N→∞ of N N !

Bounded Holomorphic Functions of Several Variables
Bounded holomorphic functions of several variables Gunnar Berg Introduction A characteristic property of holomorphic functions, in one as well as in several variables, is that they are about as "rigid" as one can demand, without being iden- tically constant. An example of this rigidity is the fact that every holomorphic function element, or germ of a holomorphic function, has associated with it a unique domain, the maximal domain to which the function can be continued. Usually this domain is no longer in euclidean space (a "schlicht" domain), but lies over euclidean space as a many-sheeted Riemann domain. It is now natural to ask whether, given a domain, there is a holomorphic func- tion for which it is the domain of existence, and for domains in the complex plane this is always the case. This is a consequence of the Weierstrass product theorem (cf. [13] p. 15). In higher dimensions, however, the situation is different, and the domains of existence, usually called domains of holomorphy, form a proper sub- class of the class of aU domains, which can be characterised in various ways (holo- morphic convexity, pseudoconvexity etc.). To obtain a complete theory it is also in this case necessary to consider many-sheeted domains, since it may well happen that the maximal domain to which all functions in a given domain can be continued is no longer "schlicht". It is possible to go further than this, and ask for quantitative refinements of various kinds, such as: is every domain of holomorphy the domain of existence of a function which satisfies some given growth condition? Certain results in this direction have been obtained (cf. -
Appendix B the Fourier Transform of Causal Functions
Appendix A Distribution Theory We expect the reader to have some familiarity with the topics of distribu tion theory and Fourier transforms, as well as the theory of functions of a complex variable. However, to provide a bridge between texts that deal with these topics and this textbook, we have included several appendices. It is our intention that this appendix, and those that follow, perform the func tion of outlining our notational conventions, as well as providing a guide that the reader may follow in finding relevant topics to study to supple ment this text. As a result, some precision in language has been sacrificed in favor of understandability through heuristic descriptions. Our main goals in this appendix are to provide background material as well as mathematical justifications for our use of "singular functions" and "bandlimited delta functions," which are distributional objects not normally discussed in textbooks. A.l Introduction Distributions provide a mathematical framework that can be used to satisfy two important needs in the theory of partial differential equations. First, quantities that have point duration and/or act at a point location may be described through the use of the traditional "Dirac delta function" representation. Such quantities find a natural place in representing energy sources as the forcing functions of partial differential equations. In this usage, distributions can "localize" the values of functions to specific spatial 390 A. Distribution Theory and/or temporal values, representing the position and time at which the source acts in the domain of a problem under consideration. The second important role of distributions is to extend the process of differentiability to functions that fail to be differentiable in the classical sense at isolated points in their domains of definition.
