Infrared self-consistent solutions of spinor QED3
Abstract
Three-dimensional electrodynamics in the spinor (i.e. two-component) version is considered. With the use of the so called Salam's vertex, the infinite hierarchy of Dyson-Schwinger equations is turned into a set of four self-consistent equations for four parameters describing the infrared behavior of fermion and boson propagators. It is shown numerically, that this set of equations has solutions, at least for certain values of gauge parameter. For weak coupling (i.e. for heavy fermions) the values of all these quantities are found analytically. In the case of massless bare fermion, masses of both particles are generated leading thereby to parity breaking.
