Flavored mesons containing quarks of unequal masses are studied. The appropriate tool is the Bethe-Salpeter formalism, but its inherent complexity leads to series of difficulties mostly related to the central role played in it by the…
We consider a damped plate equation on an open bounded subset of R^d, or a smooth manifold, with boundary, along with general boundary operators fulfilling the Lopatinskii-Sapiro condition. The damping term acts on a region without imposing…
The bound state Bethe-Salpeter amplitude was expressed by Nakanishi using a two-dimensional integral representation, in terms of a smooth weight function $g$, which carries the detailed dynamical information. A similar, but one-dimensional,…
This talk reviews several aspects of the "semirelativistic" description of bound states by the spinless Salpeter equation (which represents the simplest equation of motion incorporating relativistic effects) and, in particular, presents or…
The reduced Bethe-Salpeter equation with scalar confinement and vector gluon exchange is applied to quark-antiquark bound states. The so called intrinsic flaw of Salpeter equation with static scalar confinement is investigated. The…
The interaction kernel in the Bethe-Salpeter equation for quark-antiquark bound states is derived from the Bethe-Salpeter equations satisfied by the quark-antiquark four-point Green's function. The latter equations are established based on…

Recently developed methods allowing to find the solutions of the Bethe-Salpeter equations in Minkowski space, both for the bound and scattering states, are reviewed. For the bound states, one obtains the bound state mass and the…

In the framework of relativistic quantum field theory, the solution of homogeneous Bethe-Salpeter equation for two-body bound state can not describe unstable system, so we develop Bethe-Salpeter theory to investigate resonance which is…
The instantaneous Bethe-Salpeter equation, derived from the general Bethe-Salpeter formalism by assuming that the involved interaction kernel is instantaneous, represents the most promising framework for the description of hadrons as bound…
The Bethe-Salpeter equation is a non-perturbative, relativistic and covariant description of two-body bound states. We derive the classical Bethe-Salpeter equation for two massive point particles (with or without spin) in a bound…
Salpeter equations with potential functions rising to infinity in configuration space do not automatically predict stable bound states. For this to happen, also the Lorentz behaviour of the involved Bethe-Salpeter kernels is crucial. At…
We present a simple formula for finding bound state solution of any quantum wave equation which can be simplified to the form of $\Psi"(s)+\frac{(k_1-k_2s)}{s(1-k_3s)}\Psi'(s)+\frac{(As^2+Bs+C)}{s^2(1-k_3s)^2}\Psi(s)=0$. The two cases where…
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…
The Bethe--Salpeter equations for the quark-antiquark composite systems with different quark masses, such as $q\bar s$ (with $q=u$,$d$), $q\bar Q$ and $s \bar Q$ (with $Q=c$,$b$), are written in terms of spectral integrals. For the mesons…
The instantaneous formulations for the relativistic Bethe-Salpeter (BS) and the radiative transitions between the bound-states are achieved if the BS kernel is instantaneous. It is shown that the original Salpeter instantaneous equation set…
We propose a novel quasiparticle interpretation of the equation of state of deconfined QCD at finite temperature. Using appropriate thermal masses, we introduce a phenomenological parametrisation of the onset of confinement in the vicinity…
The Bethe-Salpeter (BS) equation in the ladder approximation is studied within a scalar theory: two scalar fields (constituents) with mass $m$ interacting via an exchange of a scalar field (tieon) with mass $\mu$. The BS equation is written…
