Solving Bethe-Salpeter scattering state equation in Minkowski space

Abstract: We present a method to directly solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation in Minkowski space, both for bound and scattering states. It is based on a proper treatment of the singularities which appear in the kernel, propagators and Bethe-Salpeter amplitude itself. The off-mass shell scattering amplitude for spinless particles interacting by a one boson exchange is computed for the first time.

“…Before applying these relations to QCD, let us take a step back and illustrate the basic solution techniques for Euclidean Bethe-Salpeter equations, since this may be helpful for the non-expert reader and the standard methods are quite different from analogous treatments in Minkowski space [291][292][293]. We consider a simple toy model: a scalar bound state (mass M ) of two scalar constituents (with equal masses m for simplicity), which are bound by a scalar exchange particle (mass µ); all propagators are at tree level.…”

“…Equation (14) is a N × N system of linear equations of the type B = A C with the inhomogeneous term given by the Euclidean BS amplitude B ≡ i j and as unknowns the array C ≡ c i j of coefficients of the expansion (12). The solution of this system C = A −1 B, will provide the coefficients c i j and by this the Nakanishi weight function g(x, z) at any point.…”

“…To avoid instability, one can, of course, keep N small enough. However, for small N the expansions (12) and (16) give a very crude reproduction of the unknown g. Therefore, to find a solution, we will use a special mathematical method -the Tikhonov regularization method (TRM) [25].…”
