We study the three-quark ladder Bethe--Salpeter equation in Minkowski-space QCD$_2$ in the light-cone gauge. Using the quasi-potential expansion, we project the baryon equation onto the light front and show that, at leading order in the…

To solve the spinor-spinor Bethe-Salpeter equation in Euclidean space we propose a novel method related to the use of hyperspherical harmonics. We suggest an appropriate extension to form a new basis of spin-angular harmonics that is…
The interaction kernel in the Bethe-Salpeter equation for quark-antiquark bound states is derived newly from QCD in the case where the quark and the antiquark are of different flavors. The technique of the derivation is the usage of the…
We propose a bilocal field theory for mesons in two dimensions obtained as a kind of non local bosonization of two dimensional QCD. Its semi-classical expansion is equivalent to the $1/N_c$ expansion of QCD. Using an ansatz we reduce the…
The sixteen-component, no-pair Dirac--Coulomb--Breit equation, derived from the Bethe--Salpeter equation, is solved in a variational procedure using Gaussian-type basis functions for the example of positronium, muonium, hydrogen atom, and…
We extend to regular QCD the derivation of a confining $ q \bar{q}$ Bethe--Salpeter equation previously given for the simplest model of scalar QCD in which quarks are treated as spinless particles. We start from the same assumptions on the…
Strong mesonic decays are studied in the framework of the 't Hooft model for the two-dimensional QCD in the axial gauge. Special attention is payed to the processes with pions in the final state involved and the low energy theorems have…
We introduce coupled channels of Bethe-Salpeter mesons both in the boundstate equation for mesons and in the mass gap equation for chiral symmetry. Consistency is insured by the Ward Identities for axial currents, which preserve the…
We carry out a comprehensive study of the quark-to-meson fragmentation function in the 't Hooft model, i.e., the two-dimensional Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) in $N_c\to \infty$ limit, following the operator definition pioneered by Collins…
We show that under a number of rather plausible assumptions QCD spectrum may contain a number of mesons which have not been predicted or observed. Such states will have the quantum numbers of two existing mesons and masses very close to the…
This thesis concerns the large-N limit, a classical limit where fluctuations in gauge-invariant variables vanish. The large dimension limit for rotation-invariant variables in atoms is given as an example of a classical limit other than…
To understand the mechanism of the fermion pair and fermion-antifermion pair condensation,the solutions of Bethe-Salpeter equation in QED$_{3}$ is examined.In the ladder appoximation our solution for the axial-scalar is consistent with…
We study the heavy-light mesons in a relativistic model, which is derived from the instantaneous Bethe-Salpeter equation by applying the Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation on the heavy quark. The kernel we choose is based on scalar confining…
We study baryons in multicolour 1+1D QCD via Rajeev's gauge-invariant reformulation as a non-linear classical theory of a bilocal meson field constrained to lie on a Grassmannian. It is known to reproduce 't Hooft's meson spectrum via small…

We evaluate the $\pi^0\gamma^* \to \gamma$ transition form factor and $\gamma\gamma$ decay widths for $\pi^0, \eta_c$ and $\eta_b$ treated as $q\bar{q}$ bound states in the Bethe-Salpeter formalism, incorporating the dynamical chiral…
The Bethe-Salpeter Equation for a bound system, composed by two massive scalars exchanging a massive scalar, is quantitatively investigated in ladder approximation, within the Nakanishi integral representation approach. For the S-wave case,…
We treat baryons as bound states of scalar or axialvector diquarks and a constituent quark which interact through quark exchange. We obtain fully four-dimensional wave functions for both octet and decuplet baryons as solutions of the…
The problem of calculating of the mass spectrum of the two-body Bethe-Salpeter equation is studied with no reduction to the three-dimensional ("quasipotential") equation. The method to find the ground state and excited states for a channel…
