abstract
The Feynman-Schwinger representation provides a convenient framework for the cal culation of nonperturbative propagators. In this paper we first investigate an analytically solvable case, namely the scalar QED in 0+1 dimension. With this toy model we illustrate how the formalism works. The analytic result for the self energy is compared with the perturbative result. Next, using a $\chi^2\phi$ interaction, we discuss the regularization of various divergences encountered in this formalism. The ultraviolet divergence, which is common in standard perturbative field theory applications, is removed by using a Pauli-Villars regularization. We show that the divergence associated with large values of Feynman-Schwinger parameter $s$ is spurious and it can be avoided by using an imaginary Feynman parameter $is$.
