Abstract
Stueckelberg mechanism introduces a scalar field, known as Stueckelberg field, so that gauge symmetry is preserved in the massive Abelian gauge theory. In this work, we show that the role of the Stueckelberg field is similar to the Kulish and Faddeev coherent state approach to handle infrared (IR) divergences. We expect that the light-front quantum electrodynamics (LFQED) with Stueckelberg field must be IR finite in the massless limit of the gauge boson. We have explicitly shown the cancellation of IR divergences in the relevant diagrams contributing to self-energy and vertex correction at leading order.
