Abstract
Light-cone quantization1 has attracted some interest as a means to perform nonperturbative analyses of quantum field theories.2 There are good reasons to hope that this technique will provide the leverage needed to obtain a qualitative, and perhaps quantitative, connection between quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and the constituent quark model.3 Given the complexity of QCD, it is useful to first study simpler theories such as quantum electrodynamics (QED) and even models in 1 + 1 spacetime dimensions rather than 3 + 1 dimensions.
