We construct the gauge field and graviton propagators in Euclidean AdS(d+1) space-time by two different methods. In the first method the gauge invariant Maxwell or linearized Ricci operator is applied directly to bitensor ansatze for the…

We discuss the chirally symmetric solution of the massless, quenched, Dyson-Schwinger equation for the fermion propagator in three and four dimensions. The solutions are manifestly gauge covariant. We consider a gauge covariance constraint…

Using mean--field improved gauge field configurations, we compare the results obtained for the quark propagator from Wilson fermions and Overlap fermions on a $\3$ lattice at a spacing of $a=0.125(2)$ fm.

We present a relation which connects the propagator in the radial (Fock-Schwinger) gauge with a gauge invariant Wilson loop. It is closely related to the well-known field strength formula and can be used to calculate the radial gauge…

We explicitly work out the de Sitter breaking contributions to the recent solution for the de Donder gauge graviton propagator on de Sitter. We also provide explicit power series expansions for the two structure functions, which are…

We comment on the recent attempt by M. Franz et al [1] to further justify their earlier calculation of the gauge-invariant electron propagator in the context of the QED_3 theory of the pseudogap phase in cuprates [2]. First, we use the…

The most general covariant gauge fixing Lagrangian is considered for a spin-two gauge theory in the context of the Faddeev-Popov procedure. In general, five parameters characterize this gauge fixing. Certain limiting values for these…

We study the behavior of the pole of the fermion propagator, in QED in $n$-dimensions, in a general class of gauges which interpolate between the covariant, the axial and the Coulomb gauges. We use Nielsen identities, following from the…

In this poster we present a few preliminary results obtained using our method to fix generic covariant gauges on the lattice. We have computed the gluon propagator and we have found a sensitive dependence on the gauge parameter.

A method to derive the convenient representations for many two-photon amplitudes is suggested. It is based on the use of the gauge in which the photon propagator has only space components. The amplitudes obtained have no any strong…

We compute the one-loop photon contribution to the graviton self-energy on a de Sitter background and use it to solve the linearized Einstein equation for a point mass. Our results show that a comoving observer sees a logarithmic spatial…

We investigate the gauge boson propagator in three dimensional compact Abelian gauge model in the Landau gauge at finite temperature. The presence of the monopole plasma in the confinement phase leads to appearance of an anomalous dimension…

After a general discussion on the choice of gauge, we compare the quark propagator in the background of one instanton in regular and singular gauge with a gauge invariant propagator obtained by inserting a path-ordered gluon exponential.…

Starting from the Heisenberg-Euler effective Lagrangian, we determine the photon current and photon polarization tensor in inhomogeneous, slowly varying electromagnetic fields. To this end, we consider background field configurations…

We first construct generalized Riemann-normal coordinates by using autoparallels, instead of geodesics, in an arbitrary Riemann-Cartan spacetime. With the aid of generalized Riemann-normal coordinates and their associated orthonormal…

We outline a new approach to calculating the quantum mechanical propagator in the presence of geometrically non-trivial Dirichlet boundary conditions based upon a generalisation of an integral transform of the propagator studied in previous…

Using properly defined Feynman propagator we obtain non--zero imaginary contribution to the scalar field effective action in even dimensional de Sitter space. Such a propagator follows from the path integral in de Sitter space and obeys…

We report on a lattice study of the gauge boson propagator of 3D compact QED in Landau gauge at zero and finite temperature. Non-perturbative effects are reflected by the generation of a mass m and by an anomalous dimension alpha. These…

With the help of the general theory of the Heun equation, this paper completes previous work by the authors and other groups on the explicit representation of the massive gravitino propagator in four-dimensional de Sitter space. As a result…

We study the propagation of quantum fields on $\kappa$-Minkowsi spacetime. Starting from the non-commutative partition function for a free field written in momentum space we derive the Feynman propagator and analyze the non-trivial…
