Infrared singularities in the renormalization group flow of Yang-Mills theories in the axial gauge

Abstract

It is shown, by explicit calculation in the axial gauge, that the renormalization group flow for the Wilson loop in perturbation theory does exhibit singularities and consequently it can not eventually reproduce the gauge invariant result, when the infrared cut off is removed
