We propose a spectral quark model which can be applied to low energy hadronic physics. The approach is based on a generalization of the Lehmann representation of the quark propagator. We work at the one-quark-loop level. Electromagnetic and…
We decompose the quark propagator in the presence of an arbitrary gluon field with respect to a set of Dirac matrices. The four-dimensional integrals which arise in first order perturbation theory are rewritten as line-integrals along…

We construct and solve the Dyson-Schwinger equation (DSE) of quark propagator with a parameterized metric, which connects the Euclidean metric with the Minkowskian one. We show, in some models, the Minkowskian vacuum is different from the…
The analytic continuation of the gluon propagator is revised in the light of recent findings on the possible existence of complex conjugated poles. The contribution of the anomalous pole must be added when Wick rotating, leading to an…
The heavy-quark spectral function in a hot plasma is reconstructed from the corresponding euclidean propagator. The latter is evaluated through a path-integral simulation. A weak-coupling calculation is also performed, allowing to interpret…

We study quantum field theory on the two-dimensional Noncommutative Minkoswki space with a Grosse-Wulkenhaar potential. We explicitly construct the retarded propagator and show that it is not a tempered distribution. This leads to problems…
We study the influence of light quark loops on the Wigner phase by solving coupled Dyson-Schwinger equations for quark propagator and gluon propagator. We take the gluon propagator in the Nambu phase from $N_f$ = 2 unquenched lattice QCD…
We present a model for the quark-antiquark interaction formulated in Minkowski space using the Covariant Spectator Theory. The quark propagators are dressed with the same kernel that describes the interaction between different quarks. By…
In this letter, we clarify the algebra expression for calculating the quark condensate based on the non-perturbative quark propagator calculated through Schwinger-Dyson equation. The quark condensates, which characterize the low energy QCD…
We discuss formulation of QCD in Minkowski-spacetime and effect of an operator product expansion by means of normal ordering of fields in the QCD Lagrangian. The formulation of QCD in the Minkowski-spacetime allows us to solve a constraint…
We revisit our recently proposed formalism for dealing with the heavy quark limit of the quark Dyson-Schwinger equation. An ambiguity inherent in the original version of method is identified and resolved. Our reanalysis illustrates the…
We discuss the propagation of gravity in five-dimensional Minkowski space in the presence of a four-dimensional brane. We show that there exists a solution to the wave equation that leads to a propagator exhibiting four-dimensional behavior…
In this letter it is shown on general ground that there exist two qualitatively distinct solutions of the Dyson-Schwinger equation for the quark propagator in the case of non-zero current quark mass. One solution corresponds to the…
It is shown that the solution of the quark Dyson-Schwinger equation in QCD obtained with a gluon propagator of the form $D(q) \sim q^2/[q^4+b^4]$ and a quark-gluon vertex that is free of kinematic singularities does not describe a confined…
