Abstract

This proceeding gives an overview of the renormalization of Fμν2F^2_{\mu\nu} using the Faddeev-Popov action and the more complicate Gribov-Zwanziger action, which deals with Gribov copies. We show that using the Faddeev-Popov action, Fμν2F^2_{\mu\nu} mixes with other d=4d=4 operators. However, due to the BRST invariance of the action, this mixing is not relevant at the level of the correlator, Fμν2(x)Fαβ2(y)\Braket {F^2_{\mu\nu}(x) F^2_{\alpha \beta}(y)}. In contrast, when turning to the Gribov-Zwanziger action, the mixing of Fμν2F^2_{\mu\nu} with other d=4d=4 operator does have consequences at the level of the correlator. This is due to the breaking of the BRST. We then present a possible candidate for a physical operator in the Gribov-Zwanziger framework.
