Abstract
A Fock representation for the physical vacuum based on the dynamical z ero mode of the gauge field is suggested for the Schwinger model quant ized on the light front. The theta-vacuum in terms of a gauge invarian t superposition of zero-mode coherent states is shown to reproduce the vacuum-angle dependence of the fermion condensate within the bosonize d formulation of the model.
