Infrared divergence does not affect the gauge-invariant curvature perturbation

Journal Article Urakawa, Yuko ; Tanaka, Takahiro - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We address the infrared (IR) divergence problem during inflation that appears in the loop corrections to the primordial perturbations. In our previous paper, we claimed that, at least in single field models, the IR divergence is originating from the gauge artifact. Namely, diverging IR corrections should not appear in genuine gauge-invariant observables. We propose here one simple but explicit example of such gauge-invariant quantities. Then, we explicitly calculate such a quantity to find that the IR divergence is absent at the leading order in the slow-roll approximation for the usual scale-invariant vacuum state. At the same time we notice thatmore »« less

Gauge invariance and binding-energy regularization of bound-state infrared divergences

Journal Article Devoto, A ; Repko, W W - Physical Review, A; (USA)

We discuss the discrepancy between the Cung {ital et} {ital al}. (Phys. Lett. B 68, 474 (1977)) calculation of the three-photon-annihilation contribution to the positronium ground-state energy, performed using the binding energy to regulate the infrared divergences, and the recent calculation of Adkins, Bui, and Zhu (Phys. Rev. A 37, 4071 (1988)), which used a photon mass to regulate these divergences. By using a simpler version of the binding-energy approach advocated by these authors, we confirm the value of the discrepancy they obtained. Furthermore, it is shown that the additional term needed in the binding-energy approach to produce agreement betweenmore »« less

Gauge invariance and infrared divergences in spinor quantum electrodynamics

Journal Article Rello, D - Phys. Rev. D; (United States)

We apply to spinor QED a new technique developed by Bergere and Szymanowski in the case of scalar QED. This method expresses QED in terms of a manifestly gauge-independent theory. Moreover, exponentiation of the infrared divergences arises naturally.

Gauge-invariance and infrared divergences in the luminosity distance

Journal Article Biern, Sang Gyu ; Yoo, Jaiyul - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

Measurements of the luminosity distance have played a key role in discovering the late-time cosmic acceleration. However, when accounting for inhomogeneities in the Universe, its interpretation has been plagued with infrared divergences in its theoretical predictions, which are in some cases used to explain the cosmic acceleration without dark energy. The infrared divergences in most calculations are artificially removed by imposing an infrared cut-off scale. We show that a gauge-invariant calculation of the luminosity distance is devoid of such divergences and consistent with the equivalence principle, eliminating the need to impose a cut-off scale. We present proper numerical calculations ofmore »« less
