Abstract

In this paper we consider a special class of Passarino-Veltman functions which appear during the reduction of the box-type diagrams with infrared divergences and mass singularities. A systematic procedure has been proposed to separate both types of singularities into sthe simplest objects: C 0 functions. New J A functions are certain linear combinations of the standard D 0 and C 0 functions, which are free from all types of singularities, and they have a compact expression in terms of logarithms and dilogarithms. Our results have been numerically compared with the calculations using the well-known package LoopTools.
