Is there a Landau Pole Problem in QED?

arXiv:hep-th/9712244 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.80.4119

Abstract

We investigate a lattice version of QED by numerical simulations. For the renormalized charge and mass we find results which are consistent with the renormalized charge vanishing in the continuum limit. A detailed study of the relation between bare and renormalized quantities reveals that the Landau pole lies in a region of parameter space which is made inaccessible by spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking.
