Description
In this contribution I will review the recent advances in the description of light mesons, in particular the pion, as solutions of the Bethe-Salpeter equation in Minkowski space. The tool to solve the Bethe-Salpeter equation is the Nakanishi integral representation and light-front projection. Results for a "mock" pion light-front wave function based on a massive vector exchange, mimicking the self-energy of the lattice gluon, will be present. Future prospects of this research effort will be discussed.
