Description

An important issue in establishing the equivalence of light-front QED in light cone gauge and the Covariant QED is the question of whether to use the two term or the three term propagator for the gauge boson. In this talk, we elaborate on this issue and show, by way of examples, that the equivalence cannot be achieved without including the third term in the photon propagator.
