Abstract
In gauge theories which undergo spontaneous symmetry breaking, explicit or dynamical, the generated vector boson masses ( mu ) complicate the form and solution of the gauge technique equations. The authors determine the effect of mu for (massive) electrodynamics by numerical methods and compare the results with approximate analytical solutions used in previous work on the subject.Keywords
