Beginning with an effective field theory based upon meson exchange, the Bethe-Salpeter equation for the three-particle propagator (six-point function) is obtained. Using the one-boson-exchange form of the kernel, this equation is then…

A simple confining separable interaction Ansatz for the rainbow-ladder truncated QCD Dyson-Schwinger equations is used to study quark deconfinement and meson states at finite temperature. The model is fixed at T=0 to implement quark…
We present a model for quark matter with a density dependent quark-quark (confining) potential, which allows to describe a deconfinement phase transition as the system evolves from a low density assembly of bound structures to a high…
Transitions between centre sectors are related to confinement in pure Yang-Mills theories. We study the impact of these transitions in QCD-like theories for which centre symmetry is explicitly broken by the presence of matter. For low…
We calculate the effective three-body force for bosons interacting with each other by a two-body potential tuned to a narrow zero crossing in any dimension. We use the standard two-channel model parametrized by the background atom-atom…

A quantum relativistic model is proposed to represent the confining potential of $c \bar{c}$ and $b \bar{b}$ mesons by using the Klein Gordon oscillator. We have solved the two-body problem obtaining the eigenvalues and the corresponding…
Approximate analytical energy formulas for N-body relativistic Hamiltonians with one- and two-body interactions are obtained within the framework of the auxiliary field method. This method has already been proved to be a powerful technique…
