Abstract
We show from the action integral that under the assumption
of longitudinal dominance and transverse confinement, QCD4 in (3+1)
dimensional space-time can be approximately compactified into QCD2
in (1+1) dimensional space-time. In such a process, we find the
relation between the coupling constant $g(2D)$ in QCD2 and the
coupling constant $g(4D)$ in QCD4. We also show that quarks and gluons
in QCD2 acquire masses as a result of the compactification.
