The effect of a change of gage on the propagators is studied systematically for quantum electrodynamics. Various gages are considered, among them the Coulomb, the Landau, the Feynman, and the Yennie gages. The equivalence of the various formulations of the theory is demonstrated. For the relativistic gages, the transformation of the wave function renormalization constant is described. (auth)
