Description

I discuss some of the apparent inconsistencies in canonical, covariant
and light-front formulations of quantum field theory and the
resolution of these inconsistencies. The topics that will be
discussed are (1) the problem of inequivalent representations (2) the
problem of the trivial vacuum (3) the problem of ill-posed initial
value problems (4) the problem of rotational covariance (5) the
problem of zero modes and (6) the problem of spontaneously broken
symmetries.
