Abstract
Based on the generalized dynamical equation, vacuum polarization effects are studied within the scope of the bound state theory in quantum electrodynamics. We find a vacuum-polarization correction to the Lamb shift for the 1S state of the hydrogen atom on the order of (α/π)2(Zα)4 that is not considered in the standard theory of bound states in quantum electrodynamics.
