dc.descriptionWe calculate the $O(α_s^2)$ massive operator matrix elements for the twist--2 operators, which contribute to the heavy flavor Wilson coefficients in unpolarized deeply inelastic scattering in the region $Q^2 \gg m^2$, up to the $O(ε)$ contributions. These terms contribute through the renormalization of the $O(α_s^3)$ heavy flavor Wilson coefficients of the structure function $F_2(x,Q^2)$. The calculation has been performed using light--cone expansion techniques without using the integration-by-parts method. We represent the individual Feynman diagrams by generalized hypergeometric structures, the $ε$--expansion of which leads to infinite sums depending on the Mellin variable $N$. These sums are finally expressed in terms of nested harmonic sums using the general summation techniques implemented in the {\tt Sigma} package.
