We study the electromagnetic form factors, decay constants and charge radii of the pion and kaon within the framework of light-front field theory formalism where we use an ansatz for the quark-meson interaction bound-state function which is…
Drell-Yan pair production is investigated. We reexamine a model where the quark momentum fraction is defined as the ratio of the corresponding light cone components of the quark and parent nucleon in a naive parton-model approach. It is…
The extra dimensional defects that are introduced to generate the lattice chiral zero modes are not simply a computational trick, but have interesting physical consequences. After reviewing what is known about the layered phase they can…
We use a diquark model of the nucleon to calculate the electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon described as a scalar and axialvector diquark bound state. We provide an analysis of the zero-mode contribution in the diquark model. We find…

Warped backgrounds in five dimensional models can provide solutions to various hierarchy problems in particle physics if the standard model matter is associated with the zero modes of bulk fields with nontrivial profiles along the extra…
A light front treatment of the nuclear wave function is developed and applied, using the mean field approximation, to infinite nuclear matter. The nuclear mesons are shown to carry about a third of the nuclear plus momentum; but their…
We discuss fermionic zero modes in the two-dimensional chiral p-wave superconductors. We show quite generally, that without fine-tuning, in a macroscopic sample there is only one or zero of such Majorana-fermion modes depending only on…
In this work, we consider a class of dark matter (DM) models where the DM does not directly interact with the Standard Model (SM) particles at the tree-level. Therefore, the coannihilation mechanism is crucial in achieving the correct DM…
We generalize the Callan-Harvey mechanism to the case of actions with a non local mass term for the fermions. Using a 2+1-dimensional model as a concrete example, we show that both the existence and properties of localized zero modes can…
We investigate the light-cone quantization of $\phi^3$ theory in 1+1 dimensions with a regularization of discretized light-cone momentum $k^+$. Solving a second-class constraint associated with the $k^+=0$ mode, we show that the $k^+=0$…
We have computed the contribution of zero modes to the value of the number of particles in the model of discrete (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. It is shown for the first time that in the region of small values of the…
Techniques of zero-temperature field theory that have found application in the analysis of field theory at finite temperature are revisited. Specifically, several of the results that are discussed are relevant to the study of…
The matrix elements of electroweak currents which occur in exclusive decays of heavy hadrons are evaluated in the nonperturbative light-cone Fock representration. In general, each semileptonic exclusive decay amplitude receives two…
In the context of scalar-tensor theories, the inclusion of new degrees of freedom coupled non-minimally to the gravitational sector might produce some appealing effects on the cosmic expansion history. We investigate this premise by…
We consider a toroidal configuration of cosmic string in 3+1 dimensions in an abelian Higgs model, a compactification of the Nielsen-Olesen string. This object is classically unstable. We explicitly compute the number of permitted zero…
The connection between the Feynman triangle diagram and the light-front formalism for spin-0 and spin-1 two-fermion systems is analyzed. It is shown that in the limit q+ = 0 the form factors for both spin-0 and spin-1 systems can be…
Two different scenarios (light-front and equal-time) are possible for Yang-Mills theories in two dimensions. The exact $\bar q q$-potential can be derived in perturbation theory starting from the light-front vacuum, but requires essential…

Spontaneous breakdown of the continuous symmetry is studied in the framework of discretized light-front quantization. We consider linear sigma model in 3+1 dimensions and show that the careful treatment of zero modes together with the…
