Light Front Quantization
read the original abstract
An introductory overview on Light-Front quantization, with some emphasis on recent achievements, is given. Light-Front quantization is the most promising and physical tool to study deep inelastic scattering on the basis of quark gluon degrees of freedom. The simplified vacuum structure (nontrivial vacuum effects can only appear in zero-mode degrees of freedom) and the physical basis allows for a description of hadrons that stays close to intuition. Recent progress has ben made in understanding the connection between effective LF Hamiltonians and nontrivial vacuum condesates. Discrete Light-Cone Quantization, the transverse lattice and Light-Front Tamm-Dancoff (in combination with renormalization group techniques) are the main tools for exploring LF-Hamiltonians nonperturbatively.
