Pauli–Villars regularization elucidated in Bopp–Podolsky’s generalized electrodynamics

Abstract We discuss an inherent Pauli–Villars regularization in Bopp–Podolsky’s generalized electrodynamics. Introducing gauge-fixing terms for Bopp–Podolsky’s generalized electrodynamic action, we realize a unique feature for the corresponding photon propagator with a built-in Pauli–Villars regular...
