Position-space representation of charged particles' propagators in a constant magnetic field as an expansion over Landau levels

We have obtained propagators in the position space as an expansion over Landau levels for the charged scalar particle, fermion, and massive vector boson in a constant external magnetic field. The summation terms in the resulting expressions consisted of two factors, one being rotationally invariant in the 2-dimensional Euclidean space perpendicular to the direction of the field, and the other being Lorentz-invariant in the 1+1-dimensional space-time. The obtained representations are unique in the sense that they allow for the simultaneous study of the propagator from both space-time and energetic perspectives which are implicitly connected. These results contribute to the development of position-space techniques in QFT and are expected to be of use in the calculations of loop diagrams.

Coordinate-space representation of a charged scalar particle propagator in a constant magnetic field expanded as a sum over the Landau levels

A coordinate-space representation for a charged scalar particle propagator in a constant magnetic field was obtained as a series over the Landau levels. Using the recently developed modified Fock-Schwinger method, an intermediate expression was constructed and symmetrized, thus, allowing for factorization of the series terms into two factors. The first one, a sum of Bessel functions, depends on time and $z$-coordinate, where the $z$-axis is chosen to be a direction of the magnetic field, and has a structure similar to the propagator of a free field. The second one, a product of a Laguerre polynomial and a damping exponential, depends on $x,y$-coordinates, which form a plane perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field, and ensures the localized propagation in the $x,y$-plane.

Charged massive vector boson propagator in a constant magnetic field in arbitrary $ξ$-gauge obtained using the modified Fock-Schwinger method

We applied a recently published modified Fock-Schwinger (MFS) method to find the exact solution of the propagator equation for a charged vector boson in the presence of a constant magnetic field directly in the momentum space as a sum over Landau levels in arbitrary $ξ$-gauge. In contrast to the standard approaches for finding propagators, MFS method demonstrated several improvements in terms of computational complexity reduction and revealed simple internal structures in intermediate and final expressions, thus allowing to obtain new useful representations of the propagator.
