Multipoint conformal integrals in D dimensions. Part II: Polygons and basis functions
Abstract
We explicitly construct a class of multivariate generalized hypergeometric series which is conjectured in our previous paper [Alkalaev & Mandrygin 2025] to calculate multipoint one-loop parametric conformal integrals in D dimensions. Our approach is based on a simple diagrammatic algorithm which systematically builds both arguments and series coefficients in terms of a convex polygon which is part of the Baxter lattice. The examples of the box, pentagon, and hexagon integrals are considered in detail.
