Feynman integrals, geometries and differential equations

Abstract

In this talk we discuss the construction of a basis of master integrals for the family of the $l$-loop equal-mass banana integrals, such that the differential equation is in an $\epsilon$-factorised form. As the $l$-loop banana integral is related to a Calabi-Yau $(l-1)$-fold, this extends the examples where an $\epsilon$-factorised form has been found from Feynman integrals related to curves (of genus zero and one) to Feynman integrals related to higher-dimensional varieties.
