We investigate capabilities of the effective interaction in a rainbow-ladder truncated meson model of QCD within a covariant Landau-gauge Bethe-Salpeter-equation approach. Based upon past success for the light- as well as heavy-quark…
In the functional approach to quantum chromodynamics, the properties of hadronic bound states are accessible via covariant integral equations, e.g. the Bethe-Salpeter equations for mesons. In particular, one has to deal with linear,…
In this paper a semidiscrete Fourier pseudospectral method for approximating Benjamin-type equations is introduced and analyzed. A study of convergence is presented.
We investigate the Bethe--Salpeter description of mesons in the limit where one of the constituing quarks is infinitely heavy. To recover the non--relativistic quark model out of the Bethe--Salpeter formalism it is usual to assume that the…
The quark-antiquark gauge invariant Green function is studied through its dependence on Wilson loops. The latter are saturated, in the large Nc limit and for large contours, by minimal surfaces. A covariant bound state equation is derived…
In this work we devise a new method to study quark anti-quark interactions beyond simple ladder-exchange that yield massless pions in the chiral limit. The method is based on the requirement to have a representation of the quark-gluon…
Motivated by the observation of a recent renewal of rather strong interest in the description of bound states by (semi-) relativistic equations of motion, we revisit, for the example of the Woods-Saxon interactions, the eigenvalue problem…
I revue the so called Wilson loop approach to bound state problem in QCD. I shall show how using appropriate path integral representations for the quark propagator in an external field it is possible to obtain corresponding path integral…
Consequent application of the instantaneous approximation to both the interaction and all propagators of the bound-state constituents allows us to forge, within the framework of the Bethe-Salpeter formalism for the description of bound…
We show that the 3D reductions of the Bethe-Salpeter equation have the same bound state spectrum as the original equation, with the possible exception of some solutions for which the corresponding 3D wave function vanishes. The abnormal…
We study the spectrum of heavy-light mesons within a model with linear instantaneous confining potential. The single-quark Green function and spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry are obtained from the Schwinger-Dyson (gap) equation. For…
We propose a numerical method to solve the Wigner equation in quantum systems of spinless, non-relativistic particles. The method uses a spectral decomposition into $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ basis functions in momentum-space to obtain a system of…
With the example of the spherically symmetric scalar wave equation on Minkowski space-time we demonstrate that a fully pseudospectral scheme (i.e. spectral with respect to both spatial and time directions) can be applied for solving…
I will discuss the gap and Bethe-Salpeter equations for quantum chromodynamics in Coulomb gauge under a leading order truncation scheme. Within this scheme, the role of charge conservation and the cancellation of infrared divergences…
Novel solutions of Minkowski QED2+1 and large $N_f$ QCD Schwinger-Dyson equations will be presented and discussed. The resultant propagators of confined degrees of freedom will be shown.
The quark dynamics inside light mesons, except pseudoscalar ones, can be quite well described by a spinless Salpeter equation supplemented by a Cornell interaction (possibly partly vector, partly scalar). A mass formula for these mesons can…
We are developing a covariant model for all mesons that can be described as quark-antiquark bound states in the framework of the Covariant Spectator Theory (CST) in Minkowski space. The kernel of the bound-state equation contains a…
