The 2+1 Dimensional Quark/Anti-quark Potential in Fourth Order Color-Dielectric Transverse Lattice QCD

The 2+1 dimensional (2 space dimensions and 1 time dimension) Transverse Lattice is constructed using the Color Dielectric formalism. The dynamics of the Color Dielectric link fields are not known from first principles, so an ansatz for the effective action is made, which is truncated at fourth order in the fields. Since the Transverse Lattice is a Light-Front field theory, it lacks manifest rotational invariance. This lack of manifest rotational invariance is exploited to determine the couplings in the effective action by calculating the Quark/Anti-quark Potential, an observable that is very sensitive to rotational symmetry. This calculation lays the groundwork for a fully 3+1 dimensional treatment of the Transverse Lattice.

The $Q\bar{Q}$ Potential in the Color-Dielectric Formulation of the Transverse Lattice

The $Q\bar{Q}$ potential is calculated in the Color-Dielectric Formulation of Transverse Lattice QCD. In such a formulation an effective potential is used to enforce the $SU(N_c)$ symmetry of the link fields. This effective potential is truncated at fourth order. Surprisingly, there is striking rotational invariance in the ground state $Q\bar{Q}$ potential as well as in the first hybrid mode.
