Abstract
We extend an earlier canonical formulation of quantum electrodynamics in the infinite-momentum frame by replacing the photons with massive vector mesons. The structure of the theory remains nearly the same except that a new term appears in the infinite-momentum Hamiltonian describing the emission of helicity-zero vector mesons with an amplitude proportional to the meson mass.Keywords
