Z 2×S 6 symmetry of the two-loop diagram

Abstract

The generic two-loop diagram of massless scalar field theory ind dimensions, with propagators raised to powers {α i |i=1,5} is shown to have a symmetry groupZ 2×S 6 corresponding to reflection and permutation of six linear combinations of the six parameters. The expansion about α i =d/4=1 is given to the level required for six-loop renormalization. All but five of the coefficients are obtained from products of one-loop diagrams. All but one are expressed in terms of the Riemann zeta function.
