Flow equations in light-front QCD
نویسنده
چکیده
Light-front QCD is studied by the method of flow equations. Dynamical gluon mass is generated, which evolves with the cut-off according to renormalization group equation. Eliminating by flow equations the quark gluon coupling with the dynamical gluon mode, one obtains an effective interaction between quark and antiquark which exibits the Coulomb and confining singularities. The scale, which regulates the light-front IR singularities in the gluon sector, defines the string tension of confining interaction. The mechanism of confinement in the light-front formalism is suggested, based on the singular nature of the light-front gauge.

Flow Equations in the Light-front Qcd: Mass Gap and Confinement
The light-front QCD is studied using the method of flow equations. Solving the light-front gluon gap equation, the effective gluon mass is generated dynamically. The effective interaction between static quark and antiquark, generated through elimination of the quark-gluon minimal coupling by flow equations, has the Coulomb, 1/q 2 , and confining, 1/q 4 , singular behavior. Elimination of the qu...
متن کاملFlow equations for quark-gluon interactions in light-front QCD
The flow-equation method of continuous unitary transformations is used to eliminate the minimal quark-gluon interaction in the light-front quantized QCD Hamiltonian. The coupled differential equations in the two lowest Fock sectors correspond to the renormalization of the light-front gluon mass and the generation of an effective quark-antiquark (as well as gluon-gluon) interaction. The original...

متن کاملQuark Confinement in Light-Front QCD and A Weak-Coupling Treatment to Heavy Hadrons
In this paper, we develop a weak-coupling treatment of nonperturbative QCD to heavy hadrons on the light-front. First, we present a derivation of quark confining interaction in light-front QCD for heavy quark systems, based on the recently developed light-front similarity renormalization group approach and the light-front heavy quark effective theory. The resulting effective lightfront QCD Hami...
متن کاملLight-front holography: a first approximation to QCD.
Starting from the Hamiltonian equation of motion in QCD, we identify an invariant light-front coordinate zeta which allows the separation of the dynamics of quark and gluon binding from the kinematics of constituent spin and internal orbital angular momentum. The result is a single-variable light-front Schrödinger equation for QCD which determines the eigenspectrum and the light-front wave func...
