Hopf-algebraic renormalization of QED in the linear covariant gauge

Abstract: In the context of massless quantum electrodynamics (QED) with a linear covariant gauge fixing, the connection between the counterterm and the Hopf-algebraic approach to renormalization is examined. The coproduct formula of Green's functions contains two invariant charges, which give rise to different renormalization group functions. All formulas are tested by explicit computations to third loop order. The possibility of a finite electron self-energy by fixing a generalized linear covariant gauge is discussed. … Show more

“…This is an example well known in the literature, see, e.g., Ref. [422], of the sensitivity of the contraction procedure to the Lorentz structure of subdiagrams (once the contraction done, the operator reduces here too to simple multiplication). Interestingly, the transverse part is non-zero only in the reduced case (ε e > 0).…”
