Canonical formulation of quantum field theory on the Light Front (LF) is reviewed. The problem of constructing the LF Hamiltonian which gives the theory equivalent to original Lorentz and gauge invariant one is considered. We describe…
We consider in this work the electromagnetic current for a system composed by two charged bosons and show that it has a structure of many bodies even in the impulse approximation, when described in the light front time $x^+$. In terms of…
A set of integral relations for rotational and translational zero modes in the vicinity of the classical soliton solution are derived from the particle-like properties of the latter. The validity of these all relations is considered for a…
Starting from the QCD Hamiltonian in near-light cone coordinates, we study the dynamics of the gluonic zero modes. Euclidean 2+1 dimensional lattice simulations show that the gap at strong coupling vanishes at intermediate coupling. This…
To produce an isomorphism between the light-cone and equal-time representations some additional formalism beyond that originally proposed for the light-cone representation may sometimes be required. The additional formalism usually involves…
In 1+1 dimensional compact QCD the zero modes of $A^+$ give the theory a non- trivial topological structure. We examine the effects of these topological structures on the confining infrared structure of the theory. We show that the ground…
Critical behaviour of the 2D scalar field theory in the LC framework is reviewed. The notion of dynamical zero modes is introduced and shown to lead to a non trivial covariant dispersion relation only for Continuous LC Quantization (CLCQ).…
Light-front formulations of quantum field theories have many advantages for computing electroweak matrix elements of strongly interacting systems and other quantities that are used to study hadronic structure. The theory can be formulated…
We apply the quartic exponential variational approximation to the symmetry breaking phenomena of scalar field in three and four dimensions. We calculate effective potential and effective action for the time-dependent system by separating…
In the canonical light-front QCD, the elimination of unphysical gauge degrees of freedom leads to a set of boundary integrals which are associated with the light-front infrared singularity. We find that a consistent treatment of the…
The light-front quantization of gauge theories such as QCD in light-cone gauge provides a frame-independent wavefunction representation of relativistic bound states, simple forms for current matrix elements, explicit unitarity, and a…
The dynamics of the phase transition of the continuum $\Phi ^{4}_{1+1}$-theory in Light Cone Quantization is reexamined taking into account fluctuations of the order parameter $< \Phi >$ in the form of dynamical zero mode operators (DZMO)…
We reproduce Chang's duality condition in a regularized $\phi^4_{1+1}$ theory quantized on a light front. The regularization involves higher derivatives in the Lagrangian, renders the model finite in the ultraviolet, and does not require…
The principles behind the detailed results of a light-front mean field theory of finite nuclei are elucidated by deriving the nucleon mode equation using a simple general argument, based on the idea that a static source in equal time…
Quantum field theory in the presence of localized solitons is more complicated than vacuum sector quantum field theory, largely as a result of the soliton's zero modes. In the present work, we try to understand to what extent this situation…
We investigate the influence of the fermion field boundary conditions on the spectrum and wavefunctions of QED$_{1+1}$ in the Discretized Light-Cone Quantization formalism suggested by Pauli and Brodsky. The basic lesson is that one Fourier…
The light-front dynamics is an efficient approach to study of field theory and of relativistic composite systems (nuclei at relativistic relative nucleon momenta, hadrons in the quark models). The explicitly covariant version of this…
A review is made on some recent studies which support the point of view that the relativistic field theory quantized on the light-front (LF) is more transparent compared to the conventional equal-time one. The discussion may be of relevance…
We study light-front physics and conformal symmetry, and their interplay both on and off the light cone. The full symmetry of the light cone is conformal symmetry not just Lorentz symmetry. Spontaneously breaking conformal symmetry gives…
The issue of the contribution of zero-modes to the light-front projection of the electromagnetic current of phenomenological models of vector particles vertices is addressed in the Drell-Yan frame. Our analytical model of the Bethe-Salpeter…
