We give an algorithm for obtaining expansions of massive two-loop Feynman graphs in powers of the external momentum around a finite, nonzero value of the momentum. Such momentum derivatives are encountered while evaluating physical radiative corrections, such as in wave function renormalization constants. This is based on our general two-loop formalism to reduce massive two-loop graphs with renormalizable interactions into a standard set of special functions. After the algebraic reduction, the final results are obtained by numerical integration. We apply the expansion algorithm to treat the top-dependent corrections of [Formula: see text] to the b-quark self-energy and extract its momentum expansion on-shell.

Abstract We consider the on-shell mass and wave function renormalization constants $$ {Z}_m^{\mathrm{OS}} $$ Z m OS and $$ {Z}_2^{\mathrm{OS}} $$ Z 2 OS up to three-loop order allowing for a second non-zero quark mass. We obtain analytic results in terms of harmonic polylogarithms and iterated integrals with the additional letters $$ \sqrt{1-{\tau}^2} $$ 1 − τ 2 and $$ \sqrt{1-{\tau}^2}/\tau $$ 1 − τ 2 / τ which extends the findings from ref. [1] where only numerical expressions are presented. Furthermore, we provide terms of order $$ \mathcal{O} $$ O (ϵ2) and $$ \mathcal{O} $$ O (ϵ) at two- and three-loop order which are crucial ingredients for a future four-loop calculation. Compact results for the expansions around the zero-mass, equal-mass and large-mass cases allow for a fast high-precision numerical evaluation.

We define four Wave function Renormalization Constants (WRCs) for unstable particles under the LSZ reduction formula. By CPT conservation law we obtain a new wave function renormalization condition and determine the four WRCs. By calculating the gauge dependence of the physical amplitudes we demonstrate the consistency of the current wave function renormalization prescription with the gauge theory in standard model. We also prove that the conventional wave function renormalization prescription leads to physical amplitudes of gauge dependent.
