Abstract:

The re-formulation of Schwinger's theory of Green-functions is carried out by making use of Tomonaga-Schwinger theory. The physical meaning of several quantities and the relations between Green-functions and the S-Matrix are clarified. The general rule for obtaining the Green-functions of many-body problems are derived from our line of reasoning. The removability of divergences arising in the Green-function of one body problem is proved. Ward's identity is derived from the gauge-covariance of Green-functions.
