The quenched Landau gauge gluon propagator is investigated in lattice QCD with large assimetric lattices, accessing momenta as low as $q \sim 100$ MeV or smaller. Our investigation focus on the IR limit of the gluon dressing function,…
About twelve years ago the use of standard functional manipulations was demonstrated to imply an unexpected property satisfied by the fermionic Green's functions of QCD. This non-perturbative phenomenon is dubbed Effective Locality. In a…
Removing ultraviolet noise from the gauge fields is necessary for glueball spectroscopy in lattice QCD. It is known that the Yang-Mills gradient flow method is an alternative approach instead of link smearing or link fuzzing in various…
We propose how to explicitly introduce the Jaffe-Witten mass gap into the quantum Yang-Mills theory. Through the full gluon propagator it is defined as such nonperturbative scale that when it formally goes to zero, then the perturbative…
The gluon propagator is calculated in quenched QCD for two different lattice sizes (16^3x48 and 32^3x64) at beta=6.0. The volume dependence of the propagator in Landau gauge is studied. The smaller lattice is instrumental in revealing…
Several analytic approaches predict for SU(N_c) Yang-Mills theories in Landau gauge an enhanced ghost propagator G(p^2) and a suppressed gluon propagator D(p^2) at small momenta. This prediction applies to two, three and four space-time…
The infrared behavior of gluon and ghost propagators offers a crucial test of confinement scenarios in Yang-Mills theories. A nonperturbative study of these propagators from first principles is possible in lattice simulations, but one must…
We study Landau-gauge gluon and ghost propagators in Yang-Mills theories at lattice parameter beta = 0, considering relatively large lattice volumes for the case of the SU(2) gauge group in three and four space-time dimensions. We compare…
We prove that in the limit of the coupling going to infinity a Yang-Mills theory is equivalent to a $\lambda\phi^4$ theory with the dynamics ruled just by a homogeneous equation. This gives explicitly the Green function and the mass…
Explicit analytical expressions are derived for the gluon propagator in a generic linear covariant $R_\xi$ gauge, by a screened massive expansion for the exact Faddeev-Popov Lagrangian of pure Yang-Mills theory. At one-loop, if the gauge…
We investigate the spectrum of the lightest states of N=1 Super Yang-Mills. We first study the spectrum using the recently extended Veneziano Yankielowicz theory containing also the glueball states besides the gluinoball ones. Using a…
It is a long-standing question whether the confinement of matter fields in QCD has an imprint in the (gauge-dependent) correlation functions, especially the propagators. In particular in the quenched case a fundamental difference could be…
A strong coupling expansion of the SU(2) Yang-Mills quantum Hamiltonian is carried out in the form of an expansion in the number of spatial derivatives, using the symmetric gauge \epsilon_{ijk} A_{jk}=0. Introducing an infinite lattice with…
The gauge-independent phenomenon of color confinement in Yang-Mills theory manifests itself differently in different gauges. Therefore, the gauge dependence of quantities related to the infrared structure of the theory becomes important for…
The massive screened expansion for pure SU(3) Yang-Mills theory is extended to finite temperature in the Landau gauge. All thermal integrals are evaluated analytically up to an external one-dimensional integration, yielding explicit…
Lattice tensor representations are used to investigate the lattice Landau gauge gluon propagator for the 4-dimensional pure SU(3) Yang-Mills gauge theory. Due to the different symmetry structure of hypercubic lattices compared to the…
We measured the gluon propagator in the Landau gauge fixed QCD Langevin simulation and studied the infra-red behaviour of the gluon propagator. The 4^3 x 8 lattice simulation was done for quenched $\beta=3,4,5$ and unquenched $\beta=4,…
Recent researches on the solution of Schwinger-Dyson equations, as well as lattice simulations of pure QCD, suggest that the gluon propagator is massive. In this letter, we assume that the classical counterpart of this massive gluon field…
We study the gluon propagator in quenched lattice QCD using the Laplacian gauge which is free of lattice Gribov copies. We compare our results with those obtained in the Landau gauge on the lattice, as well as with various approximate…
We split the Yang-Mills Lagrangian into a free and an interaction part in such a way, that the free part is non-local and contains an arbitrary form factor. Manifest gauge invariance is guaranteed by connecting the field-strength tensors at…
