Checking the transverse Ward-Takahashi relation at one loop order in 4-dimensions

چکیده

Some time ago Takahashi derived so called transverse relations relating Green’s functions of different orders to complement the well-knownWard-Green-Takahashi identities of gauge theories by considering wedge rather than inner products. These transverse relations have the potential to determine the full fermion-boson vertex in terms of the renormalization functions of the fermion propagator. Following an indicative proof by He and Yu we explicitly check this relation to oneloop order in d-dimensions, with d = 4+ ǫ. We find that an additional piece must be included in the evaluation of the Wilson line component for this relation to hold in 4-dimensions.

Noncommutative Dipole QED

The noncommutative dipole QED is studied in detail for the matter fields in the adjoint representation. The axial anomaly of this theory is calculated in two and four dimensions using various regularization methods. The Ward-Takahashi identity is proved by making use of a non-perturbative path integral method. The one-loop β-function of the theory is calculated explicitly. It turns out that the...

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

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 i...

An Exact Solution of Gauged Thirring Model in Two Dimensions ∗

In two space-time dimensions, we write down the exact and closed Schwinger-Dyson equation for the gauged Thirring model which has been proposed recently by the author. The gauged Thirring model is a natural gauge-invariant extension of the Thirring model and reduces to the Schwinger model (in the Abelian case) in the strong four-fermion coupling limit. The exact SD equation is derived by making...

Charge and Magnetic Moment of the Neutrino in the Background Field Method and in the Linear R Lξ Gauge

We present a computation of the charge and the magnetic moment of the neu-trino in the recently developed electro-weak Background Field Method and in the linear R L ξ gauge. First, we deduce a formal Ward-Takahashi identity which implies the immediate cancellation of the neutrino electric charge. This Ward-Takahashi identity is as simple as that for QED. The computation of the (proper and impro...
