We extend our study of the gluon propagator in quenched lattice QCD using the Laplacian gauge to a finer lattice. We verify the existence of a pole mass as we take the continuum limit and deduce a value of $\sim 600^{+150}_{-30}$ MeV for…
We propose a new method to compute glueball masses in finite temperature Lattice Gauge Theories which at low temperature is fully compatible with the known zero temperature results and as the temperature increases leads to a glueball…
So far, the infrared behavior of the gluon and ghost propagator based on the Gribov-Zwanziger approach predicted a positivity violating gluon propagator vanishing at zero momentum, and an infrared enhanced ghost propagator. However, recent…
At finite temperature and chemical potential, the leading-order (hard-thermal-loop) contributions to the gauge-boson propagator lead to momentum-dependent thermal masses for propagating quasiparticles as well as dynamical screening and…
Propagators of diagonal and off-diagonal gluons are studied numerically in the Maximally Abelian gauge of the SU(2) lattice gauge theory. We have found the strong enhancement of the diagonal gluon in the infrared region. The enhancement…
We study propagators of the lattice 3d adjoint Higgs model, considered as an effective theory of 4d SU(2) gauge theory at high temperature. The propagators are calculated in so-called lambda-gauges. From the long distance behaviour of the…
We present recent results for the Landau-gauge gluon and ghost propagators in SU(3) lattice gluodynamics obtained on a sequence of lattices with linear extension ranging from L=64 to L=96 at $\beta = 5.70$, thus reaching "deep infrared"…
This is the second of two papers devoted to the perturbative computation of the ghost and gluon propagators in SU(3) Lattice Gauge Theory. Such a computation should enable a comparison with results from lattice simulations in order to…
A comparative study of the lattice Landau gauge gluon and ghost propagators for SU(2) and SU(3) pure Yang-Mills theories is carried out. The data were specially produced with equivalent lattice parameters to allow for a careful comparison…
The vacuum dynamics of SU(2) and SU(3) lattice gauge theories is studied by means of a gauge-invariant effective action defined using the lattice Schr\"odinger functional at finite temperature. In the case of the SU(3) gauge theory…
In previous works, we have constructed a refined version of the Gribov-Zwanziger action in 4 dimensions, by taking into account a novel dynamical effect. In this paper, we explore the 3-dimensional case. Analogously as in 4 dimensions, we…
The magnetic sector of SU(N) Yang-Mills theory at finite temperature is studied. At low temperatures, T<2T_c, the analytic expressions for the temperature dependence of the magnetic correlator, of the magnetic gluon condensate and of the…
In previous works, we have shown that the Gribov-Zwanziger action, which implements the restriction of the domain of integration in the path integral to the Gribov region, generates extra dynamical effects which influence the infrared…
We exploit the Kallen-Lehman representation of the two-point Green function to prove that the gluon propagator cannot go to zero in the infrared limit. We are able to derive also the functional form of it. This means that current results on…
During the first part of this review we will focus on the thermodynamics of $SU(N)$ gauge theories at finite temperature. We will present results from a calculation of electric and magnetic screening masses for the gluons, discuss…
We present a numerical study of the lattice Landau gluon and ghost propagators in three-dimensional pure SU(2) gauge theory. Data have been obtained using asymmetric lattices (V = 20^2 X 40, 20^2 X 60, 8^2 X 64, 8^2 X 140, 12^2 X 140 and…
We reinvestigate the problem of Gribov ambiguities within the Landau (or Lorentz) gauge for the ghost and gluon propagators in pure SU(2) lattice gauge theory. We make use of the full symmetry group of the action taking into account {\it…
Gauge theory correlators are potentially more singular in the infrared than those in non-gauge theories. We determine the implications that these singularities have on the spectrum of the theory, proving that the appearance of generalised…
Using SU(2) lattice QCD in two dimensions, we study diagonal and off-diagonal gluon propagators in the maximally Abelian gauge (MAG) with U(1)$_3$ Landau gauge fixing. These propagators are investigated both in momentum space and coordinate…
We present SU(3) gluon propagators calculated on 48*48*48*N_t lattices at beta=6.8 where N_t=64 (corresponding the confinement phase) and N_t=16 (deconfinement) with the bare gauge parameter,alpha, set to be 0.1. In order to avoid Gribov…
