I have one question about local gauge invariance of the spinor and scalar theories.
For the scalar complex field with lagrangian L0 requirement of local gauge invariance leads us to the Lagrangian L=L0−JμAμ+q2φφ∗AμAμ−14FμνFμν=L0+Lel.+q2φφ∗AμAμ,(.1)
Fμν=∂μAν−∂νAμ is tensor of electromagnetic field,
Aμ is the local gauge invariance electromagnetic field, Aμ→Aμ−iq∂μf⇒Lel.=inv.
Maybe, the spinor case is analogical, because the lagrangian of local gauge invarince spinor field is very similar to (.1), except the last summand.

You have to get a electromagnetic propagator Dμν(x), to the desired precision level.
At first order, we do not consider the modifications to the electromagnetic propagator due to the term q2φφ∗AμAμ
We have :
Z(J)=⟨0J|e−iH∫dxo|0J⟩=∫[DA]ei∫d4xJ.A+A◻A
After integration of the RHS, We have :
−Hint∫dxo=−12∫d4xd4yJμ(x)Dμν(x−y)Jν(y)
Take J0(x)=Q1δ(→x−→x1)+Q2δ(→x−→x2), as unique non-zero value coordinate for the current, and conserve only cross-terms Q1Q2. You then express the propagator Dμν(x−y) as a Fourier transform of propagator in momentum space Dμν(k), then integrate on yo, this gives a delta function with constraint ko to be zero. This leaves a term ∫dxo on the RHS which simplify with the LHS term. At the end, up to a sign and a constant factor, the interaction energy Hint(→x) is the spatial Fourier transform of the electromagnetic propagator in momentum space with k0=0. With D(k)∼1→k2, you get an interaction energy in Q1Q2r
