Brown, Francis; Schnetz, Oliver; Yeats, Karen Properties of \(c_2\) invariants of Feynman graphs. (English) Zbl 1309.81174 Adv. Theor. Math. Phys. 18, No. 2, 323-362 (2014). Summary: The \(c_2\) invariant of a Feynman graph is an arithmetic invariant which detects many properties of the corresponding Feynman integral. In this paper, we define the \(c_2\) invariant in momentum space and prove that it equals the \(c_2\) invariant in parametric space for overall log-divergent graphs. Then we show that the \(c_2\) invariant of a graph vanishes whenever it contains subdivergences. Finally, we investigate how the \(c_2\) invariant relates to identities such as the four-term relation in knot theory.
