Abstract

Perturbation theory is shown to be working in the IR limit of pure SU(3) Yang-Mills theory in Landau gauge by an unconventional setting of the perturbative expansion. A dynamical mass is predicted for the gluon and the lattice data are reproduced fairly well by a second-order expansion, without any free parameter. The effective running coupling is small in the IR and the approximation can be improved by inclusion of higher order terms.
