As an introduction to the problem we first deal with singularities of the open string sector. As an introduction to the problem we first deal with singularities of the open string sector.
We try to build a consistent scalar \qed and show that the vertex with four scalar fields is ill defined. We try to build a consistent scalar \qed and show that the vertex with four scalar fields is ill defined.
Divergences in scalar QED are due to the behaviour of the eigenfunctions of the scalar d'Alembertian near the singularity but in a somehow unexpected way.

Near the singularity $u = 0$ in lightcone coordinates almost all eigenfunctions behave as $\frac{1}{\sqrt{\abs{u}}} e^{i \frac{\cA}{u}}$ with $\cA \neq 0$. Near the singularity $u = 0$ in lightcone coordinates almost all eigenfunctions behave as $\frac{1}{\sqrt{\abs{u}}} e^{i \frac{\cA}{u}}$ with $\cA \neq 0$.
The product of $N$ eigenfunctions gives a singularity $\abs{u}^{-N/2}$ which is technically not integrable. The product of $N$ eigenfunctions gives a singularity $\abs{u}^{-N/2}$ which is technically not integrable.
However the exponential term $e^{i \frac{\cA}{u}}$ allows for an interpretation as distribution when $\cA = 0$ is not an isolated point. However the exponential term $e^{i \frac{\cA}{u}}$ allows for an interpretation as distribution when $\cA = 0$ is not an isolated point.
