It is shown how to calculate simple vacuum diagrams in light-cone quantum field theory. As an application, I consider the one-loop effective potential of phi^4 theory. The standard result is recovered both with and without the inclusion of zero modes having longitudinal momentum k^+ = 0.

2 Calculi of Effective Potentials in Light-Front Formulation

We calculate effective potentials in scalar field theories on the maximally supersymmetric pp-wave background in ten dimensions. For this purpose we have to work in the light-cone formulation, and…

Recovering Lorentz Invariance of DLCQ

We propose a way to recover Lorentz invariance of the perturbative S matrix in the Discrete Light-Cone Quantization (DLCQ) in the continuum limit without spoiling the trivial vacuum.
