Abstract
This article is devoted to describe the 't Hooft gauge electrodynamics by means of non-perturbative methods together with Heisenberg perturbation theory insights. The point is that this specific gauge choice introduces a non-linear photon field self interaction. So, this model is analyzed in a BRST framework in analogy to the non-Abelian cases. Finally, we show that the asymptotic transverse photon modes are the same as that of the linear gauge well known case while just the non-physical longitudinal sector get renormalized by such gauge self interaction. Then the physical gauge independence is explicitly verified.
