Model of quark–antiquark interaction in quantum chromodynamics on the light front

Abstract:
We formulate a model of quark–antiquark interaction related to the limit transition to the light-front Hamiltonian in quantum chromodynamics. As ultraviolet regularization, we use a lattice in the space of transverse coordinates, and we additionally introduce a longitudinal light-front coordinate cutoff and also corresponding periodic boundary conditions. We regard the zero mode with respect to this coordinate as an independent dynamical variable. The state space of the model is limited to a quark and an antiquark that interact only via the zero mode of the gluon field on the light front. In this framework, we obtain a discrete mass spectrum of bound states. This spectrum is determined by an equation that with respect to the longitudinal coordinate turns out to be analogous to the 't Hooft equation in two-dimensional quantum chromodynamics. The equation also contains a quark–antiquark potential that ensures confinement in the transverse space.
