Abstract: (International Press)
The recursive calculation of Selberg integrals by Aomoto and Terasoma using the Knizhnik–Zamolodchikov equation and the Drinfeld associator makes use of an auxiliary point and facilitates the recursive evaluation of string amplitudes at genus zero: open-string ‑point amplitudes can be obtained from those at points.We establish a similar formalism at genus one, which allows the recursive calculation of genus-one Selberg integrals using an extra marked point in a differential equation of Knizhnik–Zamolodchikov–Bernard type. Hereby genus-one Selberg integrals are related to genus-zero Selberg integrals. Accordingly, ‑point open-string amplitudes at one loop can be obtained from ‑point open-string amplitudes at tree level. The construction is related to and in accordance with various recent results in intersection theory and string theory.Note:
