It is widely believed that the pole mass of a quark is infrared-finite and gauge-independent to all orders in perturbation theory. This seems not to have been proved in the literature. A proof is provided here.

  1. Renormalon subtracted nonrelativistic QCD for heavy hadron systems

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.5 of 10

    MRS-pNRQCD plus GFMC stabilizes heavy-hadron spectroscopy; NNLO baryon masses undershoot lattice QCD by 125–175 MeV with 1/m_Q scaling, and a critical mass ratio for tetraquark binding is extracted.

  2. Gauge-Invariant Off-Shell Mass

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.5 of 10

    A segment-local Ward–Takahashi cancellation makes the fermion self-energy equal to its Feynman-gauge value off shell, yielding a gauge-invariant, on-shell-renormalized mass function m(q).
