One-loop QED vertex in any covariant gauge: Its complete analytic form

Abstract: The one loop vertex in QED is calculated in arbitrary covariant gauges as an analytic function of its momenta. The vertex is decomposed into a longitudinal part, that is fully responsible for ensuring the Ward and Ward-Takahashi identities are satisfied, and a transverse part. The transverse part is decomposed into 8 independent components each being separately free of kinematic singularities in any covariant gauge in a basis that modifies that proposed by Ball and Chiu. Analytic expressions for all 11 compone… Show more

“…One then applies the transversality condition Q µ Γ µ (k, Q) = 0, which leads to four constraints that have to be solved so that no kinematic singularities are introduced in the process. The resulting eight transverse tensors are given by [691,708,709] where t µν AB = A·B δ µν −B µ A ν and the three-commutator is defined in Eq. (A.11).…”
