title: Light-front computational methods
text: The light-front quantization of quantum field theories provides a useful alternative to ordinary equal-time quantization. In particular, it can lead to a relativistic description of bound systems in terms of quantum-mechanical wave functions. The quantization is based on the choice of light-front coordinates, where x + ≡ c t + z plays the role of time and the corresponding spatial coordinate is x − ≡ c t − z . Here, t is the ordinary time, z is one Cartesian coordinate, and c is the speed of lig
