Beta functions and anomalous dimensions up to three loops

Abstract

We derive an algorithm for automatic calculation of perturbative $\beta$-functions and anomalous dimensions in any local quantum field theory with canonical kinetic terms. The infrared rearrangement is performed by introducing a common mass parameter in all the propagator denominators. We provide a set of explicit formulae for all the necessary scalar integrals up to three loops.
