In this manuscript, we report the outcome of the topical workshop: paving the way to alternative NNLO strategies (https://indico.ific.uv.es/e/WorkStop-ThinkStart_3.0), by presenting a discussion about different frameworks to perform precise higher-order computations for high-energy physics. These approaches implement novel strategies to deal with infrared and ultraviolet singularities in quantum field theories. A special emphasis is devoted to the local cancellation of these singularities, which can enhance the efficiency of computations and lead to discover novel mathematical properties in quantum field theories. 2021-05-11T06:56:46Z 2021-05-11T06:56:46Z 2021-03-22 info:eu-repo/semantics/article Torres Bobadilla, W.J., Sborlini, G.F.R., Banerjee, P. et al.
