We study 't Hooft's equation for bound states in 2d multicolor QCD. We consider the case of quarks with equal masses. We derive asymptotic expansions for the spectrum of mesons in different regimes and study their properties.
Recently it has been shown that in two dimensions is possible to add new Lorentz invariant terms built with fractions containing the null vector $n= (1, 1)$. In this work, we have computed the meson spectrum following the 't Hooft model in $QCD_2$ incorporating these new kinds of terms. We found these new terms does not affect the meson spectrum. We have computed the 't Hooft model with a new regulator. We have introduced a gluon mass and we have recovered the 't Hooft result when this parameter is set to zero.
The two-dimensional QCD in the large $N$ limit, generally referred to as the 't Hooft model, is numerically investigated in the axial gauge in a comprehensive manner. The corresponding Bethe-Salpeter equation for a bound $q\bar{q}$ pair, originally derived by Bars and Green in 1978, was first numerically tackled by Li and collaborators in late 1980s, yet only for the {\it stationary} mesons. In this paper, we make further progress by numerically solving the Bars-Green equation for {\it moving} mesons, ranging from the chiral pion to charmonium. By choosing several different quark masses, we co…
We study the mass/energy structure of the bound state of hadrons in two-dimensional quantum chromodynamics in the large number of color limit (t' Hooft model). We analyze separately the contributions from the traceless and trace part of the energy-momentum tensor, and show that the masses are related to the matrix elements of the scalar charge and Coulomb energy. We derive the light-front sum rules for the scalar charge and Coulomb energy, expressed in terms of the light-front wave functions, and find that they are regular at $x=0$ without the delta function contribution. We also consider the …
Considering the setup of arXiv:0902.1540 [hep-th] involving UV-complete top-down type IIB holographic dual of large-N thermal QCD with a fluxed resolved warped deformed conifold, in arXiv:1306.4339 [hep-th] delocalized type IIA S(trominger)-Y(au)-Z(aslow)mirror of the type IIB background of arXiv:0902.1540 [hep-th] was constructed via three T dualities along a special Lagrangian $T^{3}$ fibered over a large base and then uplifted, locally, to the 11-dimensional ${\cal M}$-theory. Considering the aforementioned setup arXiv:1306.4339 [hep-th] in the `MQGP' limit, in arXiv:1703.01306 [hep-th] we …
We extend the formalism pioneered by Callan, Coote and Gross to investigate the meson-meson scattering within the framework of 't Hooft model, i.e., the two-dimensional QCD in the $N_c\to \infty$ limit. We derive the analytic expressions for various two-body meson-meson scattering amplitudes, concentrating on those quark diagrams which may be identified as the meson-meson contact interaction vertex in the context of the mesonic effective lagrangian in $1/N_c$ expansion. We also carry out a detailed numerical study for the meson-meson scattering for various quark flavors, and observe the near-t…
We apply the basis light-front quantization framework to solve for the structures of mesons with light and strange valence quarks. Our approach treats mesons as relativistic bound states with quarks confined in both the transverse direction and the light-front longitudinal direction. The spin-orbit interactions of these confined quarks are further specified by the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model. We address the $\mathrm{U}(1)_{\mathrm{A}}$ axial anomaly by including the Kobayashi-Maskawa-'t Hooft interaction regularized by our basis. We present the structures of the pion, the kaon, the eta meson, an…
The 't Hooft model, i.e. the two-dimensional quantum chromodynamics in the limit of infinite number of colors, is interpolated by an angle parameter $δ$ between $δ=0$ for the instant form dynamics (IFD) and $δ=π/4$ for the light-front dynamics (LFD). With this parameter $δ$, we formulate the interpolating mass gap equation which takes into account the non-trivial vacuum effect on the bare fermion mass to find the dressed fermion mass. Our interpolating mass gap solutions link the IFD and LFD results with the $δ$ parameter. We find the interpolation angle independent characteristic energy funct…

As a sequel of our preceding work [1] we carry out a comprehensive comparative study between the quasi parton distribution functions (PDFs), distribution amplitudes (DAs) and their light-cone counterparts for various flavor-neutral mesons, in the context of the 't Hooft model, that is, the two-dimensional QCD in the large $N$ limit. In contrast to the original derivation via diagrammatic techniques exemplified by Dyson-Schwinger and Bethe-Salpeter equations, here we employ the Hamiltonian operator approach to reconstruct the celebrated 't Hooft equation in light-front quantization, and Bars-Gr…
This work is driven by our curiosity towards some basic questions in QCD: how is the energy of a moving hadron partitioned among different gauge-invariant sectors in QCD Hamiltonian? How is the energy of an massless pion separated between quark and gluon sectors, particularly in the soft pion limit? Is it possible to decompose the celebrated Gell-Mann-Oakes-Renner (GOR) relation? To what extent can we justify the quark potential model from the field-theoretical mass decomposition for heavy quarkonium? Due to limitation of contemporary nonperturbative tools, we do not yet know answers to these …
We discuss quantum entanglement between fast and slow degrees of freedom, in a two dimensional (2D) large $N_c$ gauge theory with Dirac quarks, quantized on the light front. Using the 't Hooft wave functions, we construct the reduced density matrix for an interval in the momentum fraction $x$-space, and calculate its von Neumann entropy in terms of structure functions, that are measured by DIS on mesons (hadrons in general). We found that the entropy is bounded by an area law with logarithmic divergences, proportional to the rapidity of the meson. The evolution of the entanglement entropy with…
