Point-form quantum field theory
We examine canonical quantization of relativistic field theories on the forward hyperboloid, a Lorentz-invariant surface of the form xμx μ = τ2. This choice of quantization surface implies that all components of the 4-momentum operator are affected by interactions (if present), whereas rotation and boost generators remain interaction free – a feature characteristic of Dirac’s “point-form”of rel...
متن کاملPoint-Form Quantum Field Theory and Meson Form Factors
Recently we have reconsidered the quantization of relativistic field theories on a Lorentz-invariant surface of the form xμx μ = τ [1]. With this choice of the quantization surface all components of the 4-momentum operator become interaction dependent, whereas the generators of Lorentz transformations stay free of interactions – a feature characteristic for Dirac’s “point form” of relativistic ...
متن کاملPoint Form Quantum Field Theory on Velocity Grids, I: Boson Contractions
In constrast to discretized space-time approximations to continuum quantum field theories, discretized velocity space approximations to continuum quantum field theories are investigated. A fourmomentum operator is given in terms of bare fermion-antifermionboson creation and annihilation operators with discrete indices. In continuum quantum field theories the fermion-antifermion creation and ann...

Point form relativistic quantum mechanics, antiparticles and exchange currents. Abstract It is shown that the dynamical observables calculated with the point form rela-tivistic quantum mechanics incorporate effects of particle-antiparticle creation from the vacuum by interactions. The electromagnetic observables obtained with the point form impulse approximation include contributions from the "...
