Mesonic states in the generalised Nambu-Jona-Lasinio theories
For any Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model of QCD with arbitrary nonlocal,
instantaneous, quark current-current confining kernels, we use a generalised
Bogoliubov technique to go beyond BCS level (in the large-Nc limit) so as to
explicitly build quark-antiquark compound operators for creating/annihilating
mesons. In the Hamiltonian approach, the mesonic bound-state equations appear
(from the generalised Bogoliubov transformation) as mass-gap-like equations
which, in turn, ensure the absence, in the Hamiltonian, of mesonic Bogoliubov
anomalous terms. We go further to demonstrate the one-to-one correspondence
between Hamiltonian and Bethe-Salpeter approaches to non-local NJL-type models
for QCD and give the corresponding "dictionary" necessary to "translate" the
amplitudes built using the graphical Feynman rules to the terms of the
Hamiltonian, and vice versa. We comment on the problem of multiple vacua
existence in such type of models and argue that mesonic states in the theory
should be prescribed to have an extra index - the index of the replica in which
they are created. Then the completely diagonalised Hamiltonian should contain a
sum over this new index. The method is proved to be general and valid for any
instantaneous quark kernel.Comment: LaTeX2e, uses aipproc class, Talk given at the conference "Quark

Quantum field theory approach to the vacuum replica in QCD
Quantum field theory is used to describe the contribution of possible new QCD
vacuum replica to hadronic processes. This sigma-like new state has been
recently shown to be likely to appear for any realistic four-quark interaction
kernel as a consequence of chiral symmetry. The local operator creating the
replica vacuum state is constructed explicitly. Applications to physical
processes are outlined.Comment: LaTeX2e, 2 EPS figures, uses ws-procs9x6 (included) and epsfig
