Abstract

Modular graph forms are a class of non-holomorphic modular forms that arise in the low-energy expansion of genus-one closed string amplitudes. In this work, we introduce a systematic procedure to convert lattice-sum representations of modular graph forms into iterated integrals of holomorphic Eisenstein series and provide a \textsc{Mathematica} package that implements all modular graph form topologies up to four vertices. To achieve this, we introduce specific tree-representations of modular graph forms. The presented method enables the conversion of the integrand of the four-graviton one-loop superstring amplitude at eighth order in the inverse string tension $\alpha^{\prime 8}$, which we use to calculate the $\alpha^{\prime 8}\zeta_3\zeta_5$ contribution to the analytic part of the amplitude.
