Light Cone Quantization Of Gauge Fields, Gary Mccartor, David G. Robertson
Light Cone Quantization Of Gauge Fields, Gary Mccartor, David G. Robertson
Physics Faculty Scholarship
Light-cone quantization of gauge field theory is considered. With a careful treatment of the relevant degrees of freedom and where they must be initialized, the results obtained in equal-time quantization are recovered, in particular the Mandelstam-Leibbrandt form of the gauge field propagator. Some aspects of the “discretized” light-cone quantization of gauge fields are discussed.
