We consider a model with higher derivatives for a spinor field with Fermi-type self-interaction. The problem of two-particle bound states is investigated with the help of the Bethe–Salpeter equation. It is shown that a scalar bound state exists when the coupling constant has a very finely tuned magnitude.

Recently an instantaneous approximation to the Bethe–Salpeter formalism for the analysis of bound states in quantum field theory has been proposed which retains, in contrast to the Salpeter equation, as far as possible the exact propagators of the bound-state constituents, extracted nonperturbatively from Dyson–Schwinger equations or lattice gauge theory. The implications of this improvement for the solutions of this bound-state equation, i.e. the spectrum of the mass eigenvalues of its bound states and the corresponding wave functions, when considering the quark propagators arising in quantum chromodynamics are explored.

We conjecture that, in a renormalizable effective quantum field theory where the heaviest stable particle has mass mm, there are no bound states with radius below 1/m1/m (Bound State Conjecture). We are motivated by the (scalar) Weak Gravity Conjecture, which can be read as a statement forbidding certain bound states. As we discuss, versions for uncharged particles and their generalizations have shortcomings. This leads us to the suggestion that one should only constrain rather than exclude bound objects. In the gravitational case, the resulting conjecture takes the sharp form of forbidding the adiabatic construction of black holes smaller than 1/m1/m. But this minimal bound-state radius remains non-trivial as M_\mathrm{P}\to \inftyMP→∞, leading us to suspect a feature of QFT rather than a quantum gravity constraint. We find support in a number of examples which we analyze at a parametric level.

A systematic discussion of the probability of eta and KL bound-state decays—[Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text](l=e, μ)—within a three-dimensional reduction to the two-body quantum field theory is presented. The bound-state vertex function depends on the relative momentum of constituent-like particles. A structure-transition form factor is defined by a confinement-type quark-antiquark wave function. The phenomenology of this kind of decays is analyzed.

Abstract Dynamics of quantum field theory can be formulated by functional equations. To develop a complete functional quantum theory one has to describe the physical information by functional operations only. Such operations have been defined in preceding papers. To apply these operations to physical problems, the corresponding functionals have to be known. Therefore in this paper calculational procedures for functionals are discussed. As high energy phenomena are of interest, the calculational procedures are given for spinor field functionals. Especially a method for the calculation of stationary and Fermion-Fermion scattering functionals is proposed.
