The standard approximations of the Dyson--Schwinger equation lead to complex singularities of the fermion propagator. In three-dimensional QED one can show that this phenomenon might be related to confinement: a confining potential leads to mass-like singularities at complex momenta, and thus to the absence of a mass singularity on the real timelike axis. The correct treatment of the vacuum polarization is essential for the confining nature of QED3.

  1. Chiral symmetry restoration effects onto the meson spectrum from a Dyson-Schwinger and Bethe-Salpeter approach

    hep-ph 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Varying interaction strength in DSE/BSE models produces meson degeneracies whose domains shrink with model realism, linked to quark propagator pole locations and possible chiral spin symmetry.
