Description
I will give a short introduction to light-front formulations of
relativistic quantum mechanics and quantum field theory. I will
discuss some of the special properties and advantages of a light-front
dynamics. I will also discuss both the relation to and differences
with ``instant-form'' relativistic quantum mechanics and canonical
formulations of quantum field theory.
