Light-cone representation of the quark Schwinger-Dyson equation

We use a light-cone approach to solve the Schwinger-Dyson equation for the quark propagator. We show how this method can be used to solve the equation beyond the space-like region, to which one is usually restricted with the usual Euclidean-space approach. We work in the Landau gauge, and use an infrared-enhanced model for the gluon propagator and include instanton effects to get both confinement and vacuum condensates. With our models, reasonable fits to known quantities are obtained, resulting in a light-cone quark propagator that can be used for hadronic physics at all momentum transfers.

Quark propagator, instantons and gluon propagator

The Schwinger-Dyson formalism is used to check the consistency of instanton model solutions for the quark propagator with recent models of confining gluon propagators. We find that the models are not consistent. A major discrepancy is the absence of a vector condensate in the instanton model that is present in the solutions with nonperturbative confining gluons.

Extraction of hadron-hadron potentials on the lattice within 2+1 dimensional QED

A potential between mesons is extracted from 4-point functions within lattice gauge theory taking 2+1 dimensional QED as an example. This theory possesses confinement and dynamical fermions. The resulting meson-meson potential has a short-ranged hard repulsive core due to antisymmetrization. The expected dipole-dipole forces lead to attraction at intermediate distances. Sea quarks lead to a softer form of the total potential.

On the nature of the residual meson-meson interaction from simulations with a QED${}_{2+1}$ model
