Carlson|In the preface the author asserts that she is not an expert in the theory of motives. But by perusing the discussion on motives and periods that takes place in Chapter 2 of this book serves as another piece of evidence that it is the non-expert that is better at explaining difficult abstract mathematical concepts. In the opinion||"This book can serve as an excellent guide for graduate students and researchers to this new area, in particular to the reasons of enigmatic reappearance of Euler's multiple zeta values as basic Feynman periods." -- Yu I Manin, Max-Planck-Institute for Math
This book presents recent and ongoing research work aimed at understanding the mysterious relation between the computations of Feynman integrals in perturbative quantum field theory and the theory of motives of algebraic varieties and their periods. One of the main questions in the field is understanding when the residues of Feynman integrals in perturbative quantum field theory evaluate to periods of mixed Tate motives. The question originates from the occurrence of mul...
