Abstract

We show the light-front representation of the field theoretical Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) in the ladder approximation using the quasi potential reduction. We discuss the equivalence of the covariant ladder Bethe-Salpeter equation with an infinite set of coupled equations for the Green’s functions of the different light-front Fock-states.
