About this book

This book includes review articles in the field of elliptic integrals, elliptic functions and modular forms intending to foster the discussion between theoretical physicists working on higher loop calculations and mathematicians working in the field of modular forms and functions and analytic solutions of higher order differential and difference equations. 

Keywords

  • elliptic integrals and functions
  • iterated modular functions
  • iterated integrals
  • massive high loop Feynman integral
  • differential equations

Reviews

“The book is explicitly concerned with ‘the mathematics of modular forms [as it is] of central importance for the analytic solution of Feynman diagrams,’ but modular formers should be equally interested in the material offered in this compendium.” (Michael Berg, MAA Reviews, May 19, 2019)
