GAUGE COVARIANT AND GAUGE INVARIANT GREEN FUNCTIONS. CONNECTION BETWEEN ZUMINO'S AND MANDELSTAM'S FORMULATIONS

Journal Article · · Bull. Acad. Polon. Sci., Ser. Sci., Math., Astron. Phys.
OSTI ID:4640278
It is shown that Zumino's and Mandelstam's formulations of quantum electrodynamics are completely equivalent. The gauge freedom of Green functions in Zumino's formulation corresponds to the arbitrariness in the definition of Green functions in Mandelstam's formulation. (auth)
