Abstract
The invariant solutions of the exact Bethe-Salpeter equation are found in the case of nonzero exchanged-meson mass. They are expressed as series of ``truncated vertex functions,'' which are certain combinations of the usual vertex functions. The eigenvalues of the coupling constant are determined by a transcendental equation, which is not solved explicitly.Keywords
