Description

Quantum chromodynamics in 1 + 1 space-time is formulated in terms of gauge invariant phase operators; i.e., the Hamiltonian as well as other Poincare generators are written in a gauge invariant hadronic language without reference to the gluon and quark fields. A systematic method for computing the 1/N expansion is given. Both the meson and the baryon sectors are studied in this context. It is shown that no infrared divergences appear at any step of the calculations
