Multiphoton amplitudes and generalized LKF transformation in Scalar QED
read the original abstract
We apply the worldline formalism to amplitudes in scalar quantum electrodynamics (QED) involving open scalar lines, with an emphasis on their non-perturbative gauge dependence. At the tree-level, we study the scalar propagator interacting with any number of photons in configuration space as well as in momentum space. At one-loop we rederive, in an efficient way, the off-shell vertex in an arbitrary dimension and any covariant gauge. Generalizing the Landau-Khalatnikov-Fradkin transformation (LKFT) for the non-perturbative propagator, we find simple non-perturbative transformation rules for arbitrary x-space amplitudes under a change of the covariant gauge parameter in terms of conformal cross ratios.

Landau-Khalatnikov-Fradkin Transformations in Reduced Quantum Electrodynamics: Perturbative and Nonperturbative Dynamics of the Fermion Propagator
LKF transformations give all-order gauge-transformed fermion propagators in RQED, with ξ=1/3 eliminating one-loop leading logs and numerical checks confirming gauge-invariant condensate and pole mass.
