Heat-kernel regularization of gauge theory

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. D; (United States)
; ;
We discuss the heat-kernel option in the new covariant-derivative regularization program. The exponential regularization is generally simpler and more systematic than the previously studied power-law regulators. As a result, for example, we are able to verify the vanishing gluon mass in all dimensions at once.
