Both the gauge-invariant fermion Green function and gauge-dependent conventional Green function in $ 2+1 $ dimensional QED are studied in the large $ N $ limit. In temporal gauge, the infra-red divergence of gauge-dependent Green function…
We consider a gauge-invariant, mass-independent prescription for renormalizing composite operators, regularized on the lattice, in the spirit of the coordinate space (X-space) renormalization scheme. The prescription involves only Green's…

The use of quantum computing to solve a problem in quantum mechanics is illustrated, step by step, by calculating energies and transition amplitudes in a nonrelativistic quark model. The quantum computations feature the use of variational…
