We derive the gauge covariance requirement imposed on the QED fermion-photon three-point function within the framework of a spectral representation for fermion propagators. When satisfied, such requirement ensures solutions to the fermion propagator Schwinger-Dyson equation (SDE) in any covariant gauge with arbitrary numbers of spacetime dimensions to be consistent with the Landau-Khalatnikov-Fradkin transformation (LKFT). The general result has been verified by the special cases of three and four dimensions. Additionally, we present the condition that ensures the vacuum polarization is independent of the gauge parameter. As an illustration, we show how the Gauge Technique dimensionally regularized in 4D does not satisfy the covariance requirement.

Any practical application of the Schwinger-Dyson equations to the study of $n$-point Greens functions of a field theory requires truncations, the best known being finite order perturbation theory. Strong coupling studies require a different approach.
In the case of QED, gauge covariance is a powerful constraint. By using a spectral representation for the massive fermion propagator in QED, we are able to show that the constraints imposed by the Landau-Khalatnikov-Fradkin transformations are linear operations on the spectral densities. Here we formally define these group operations and show with a couple of examples how in practice they provide a straightforward way to test the gauge covariance of any viable truncation of the Schwinger-Dyson equation for the fermion 2-point function.
In this work we present an extended version of the Friedrichs Model, which includes fermion-boson couplings. The set of fermion bound states is coupled to a boson field with discrete and continuous components. As a result of the coupling some of the
fermion states may become resonant states. This feature suggests the existence of a formal link between the occurrence of Gamow Resonant States in the boson sector, as predicted by the standard Friedrichs Model, with similar effects in the set of solutions of the fermion central potential (Gamow fermion resonances). The structure of the solutions of the model is discussed by using different approximations to the model space. Realistic couplings constants are used to calculate fermion resonances in a heavy mass nucleus.
In this work we present a formal solution of the extended version of the Friedrichs Model. The Hamiltonian consists of discrete and continuum bosonic states, which are coupled to fermions. The simultaneous treatment of the couplings of the fermions w
ith the discrete and continuous sectors of the bosonic degrees of freedom leads to a system of coupled equations, whose solutions are found by applying standard methods of representation of bound and resonant states.
The one- and the two-particle propagators for an infinite non-interacting Fermi system are studied as functions of space-time coordinates. Their behaviour at the origin and in the asymptotic region is discussed, as is their scaling in the Fermi momen
tum. Both propagators are shown to have a divergence at equal times. The impact of the interaction among the fermions on their momentum distribution, on their pair correlation function and, hence, on the Coulomb sum rule is explored using a phenomenological model. Finally the problem of how the confinement is reflected in the momentum distribution of the systems constituents is briefly addressed.
We show that the three-dimensional map between fermions and bosons at finite temperature generalises for all odd dimensions $d>3$. We further argue that such a map has a nontrivial large $d$ limit. Evidence comes from studying the gap equations, the
free energies and the partition functions of the $U(N)$ Gross-Neveu and CP$^{N-1}$ models for odd $dgeq 3$ in the presence of imaginary chemical potential. We find that the gap equations and the free energies can be written in terms of the Bloch-Wigner-Ramakrishnan $D_d(z)$ functions analysed by Zagier. Since $D_2(z)$ gives the volume of ideal tetrahedra in 3$d$ hyperbolic space our three-dimensional results are related to resent studies of complex Chern-Simons theories, while for $d>3$ they yield corresponding higher dimensional generalizations. As a spinoff, we observe that particular complex saddles of the partition functions correspond to the zeros and the extrema of the Clausen functions $Cl_d(theta)$ with odd and even index $d$ respectively. These saddles lie on the unit circle at positions remarkably well approximated by a sequence of rational multiples of $pi$.
