Abstract

The 4-loop QED mass and wave function renormalization constants Z2Z_2 and ZmZ_m have been evaluated in the on-shell subtraction scheme with 1100 digits of precision. We also worked out the coefficients of the five color structures of the QCD renormalization constants Z2OSZ_2^{OS} and ZmOSZ_m^{OS} which can obtained from QED-like diagrams. The results agree with lower precision results available in the literature. Analytical fits were also obtained for all these quantities.
