We present a (first, to the best of our knowledge) consistent truncation of the Schwinger-Dyson equations in the lowest Landau level approximation. We demonstrate that the dynamical fermion mass, obtained as the solution of the truncated Schwinger-Dyson equations evaluated on the fermion mass shell, is manifestly gauge independent.10 pages, 1 eps figure, version to appear in Annals of PhysicsHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyAstrophysicsMesoscale and Nanoscale PhysicsHigh Energy Physics - TheoryNuclear Theorytext
