Abstract: (Springer)
Nakawaki's Coulomb gauge solution to the Schwinger model is transformed to light-cone gauge. Various options for maintaining the gauge invariance necessary to satisfy the equations of motion are discussed. Satisfactory light-cone gauge solutions are found and are used to study light-cone quantization, the calculation of the dynamical operators and properties of the vacua in the light-cone representation. The solutions found here can be used to justify previous light-cone Tamm-Dancoff calculations performed by others.
