1. Motivation •Light-Front Dynamics(LFD) has been quite successful in describing various hadron properties. • But it has been emphasized that the treacherous points(e.g. zero modes) should be taken into account for successful LFD applications to hadron phenomenology.[Jaus 99; Cheng,Chua,Hwang (CCH)04; de Melo, Frederico 97,12; CJ,PRD89(14),80(09);NPA865(11);PLB695,518(11)] Representative Examples: Two-point function (e.g. Decay constant) Three-point function (e.g. Form factors) p=P-k P • In our previous work(CJ 09,11,14), we identified the zero-mode operator & found a way to include it effectively in the valence diagram within the manifestly covariant Bethe-Salpeter(BS) model. But the zero-mode may depend on the LF vertex function. k • The purpose of this work is to build LFQM, which provides an effective treatment of the zero-mode.
• Nature of the LF zero-mode in the meson decay amplitude Pick up a LF energy pole LF projection p=P-k P k If this contribution does not vanish, we must capture it! Zero mode !
• Nature of the LF zero-mode in the meson decay amplitude Pick up a LF energy pole LF projection p=P-k P k • Zero-mode issue of is highly nontrivial & deserves careful analysis! If this contribution does not vanish, we must capture it! Zero mode !
• The purpose of this work is to build LFQM, which provides an effective treatment of the zero-mode. • Manifestly Covariant BS model • LFQM (standard LF approach) - To provide phenomenological model! take advantage of BS model - To provide theoretical guidance! know how to find the Z.M. ) Melosh transformation To absorb the zero-mode complication into the effective constituent degree of freedom, we attempt to find matching condition between BS model and LFQM:

4.Conclusions • • In this work, we extended the analysis of meson from the manifestly covariant • BS model to the more realistic standard LFQM through the following matching condition • between BS model and LFQM : • In the standard LFQM, we are able to describe the decay amplitude only • in terms of valence diagram with the on-mass-shell quark propagators but respecting • chiral symmetryof QCD. • Our twist-2 and twist-3 DAs not only satisfy the fundamental symmetry anticipated • isospin symmetry but also reproduce the correct asymptotic DAs in the chiral limit. • •Our LFQM may provide the view of an effective zero-mode cloud around the quark • and antiquark inside the meson. Consequently, the constituents dressed by the zero-mode • cloud may be expected to satisfy the chiral symmetry of QCD. • Need more observables to make our findings generalize! - Other higher twist DAs, electroweak form factors etc.
