The Wightman function for a massive free scalar field is studied within the light front formulation, while a special attention is paid to its mass dependence. The long lasting inconsistency is successfully solved by means of the novel…
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…

Renormalization group procedure for effective particles is applied to the model quantum theory of free fermions to which one adds an interaction in the form of a mass mixing term. If one used a standard approach based on the instant form of…
