Abstract
Basis Light-front Quantization has been proposed as a nonperturbative
framework for solving quantum field theory. We apply this approach to Quantum
Electrodynamics and explicitly solve for the light-front wave function of a
physical electron. Based on the resulting light-front wave function, we
evaluate the electron anomalous magnetic moment. Nonperturbative mass
renormalization is performed. Upon extrapolation to the infinite basis limit
our numerical results agree with the Schwinger result obtained in perturbation
theory to an accuracy of 0.06\%.
