Exact Green's function for fermions in an external Yang-Mills gauge field

Abstract

We obtain the Green's function for fermions in an external non-Abelian gauge field with an $SU(N)$ symmetry group. As an external field, we examine the solution to the Yang-Mills equation presented as a plane wave on the light cone.
