Diagrammatic construction of GKZ systems for polygonal functions

Abstract

We investigate the recently introduced polygonal hypergeometric functions [arXiv:2502.12127, arXiv:2507.01904], which are conjectured to evaluate multipoint parametric one-loop conformal integrals in arbitrary dimensions. These functions can be systematically constructed using a diagrammatic algorithm that operates in terms of simple planar shapes. Given an n-point polygonal power series, we formulate the corresponding GKZ hypergeometric system, which admits an explicit diagrammatic interpretation. In particular, the transianic matrix, which encodes all the relevant diagrammatic data, determines the corresponding toric matrix along with a basis of the lattice of relations, thereby singling out a finite subsystem of n(n−3)/2 toric equations. This finite subsystem consists of second- and third-order equations, whereas the full toric family also includes higher-order ones. We illustrate the general procedure with several prominent examples of polygonal functions, including the fourth Appell and the Srivastava--Daoust functions.
