Abstract

We discuss the calculation of fermion self energy correction in Light Front QED using a coherent state basis. We show that if one uses coherent state basis instead of fock basis to calculate the transition matrix elements, the true infrared divergences in electron mass renormalization δm2 get canceled up to O(e4) in Light Front gauge. We have also verified this cancellation in Feynman gauge up to O(e2).
