Abstract
We consider, in the light-cone gauge, the possible structure of the counterterms arising in the solution to the renormalization equation. Using the structure of these counterterms and the noncovariant formalism of the integrals as guidelines, we also examine to one-loop order the divergence and nonlocality of theN-point gluon vertex functions forN≧5.

Here we let the gauge parameter α→0. The renormalization with α≠0 would require higher derivative terms. See [8]
