| contents | The Fried-Yennie gauge is a covariant gauge for which the mass-shell renormalization procedure can be performed without introducing spurious infrared divergences to the theory. It is usually applied in calculations in regular Quantum-Electrodynamics (QED), but it is particularly interesting to be employed in the framework of pseudo-QED (PQED), where fermions are constrained to 2+1 dimensions while external fields interacting with these fermions live in the bulk of a 3+1 space. In this context, the gauge parameter can be adjusted to match the power of the external momentum in the denominator of the photon propagator, simplifying the infrared region without the need of a photon mass. In this work we apply for the first time this machinery to PQED, generalizing the procedure to calculate the self energy in arbitrary dimensions, allowing of course for different dimensionality of fermions and gauge fields. |
