This brief note is devoted to a study of genuine non-perturbative corrections to the Landau gauge ghost-gluon vertex in terms of the non-vanishing dimension-two gluon condensate. We pay special attention to the kinematical limit which the…
Starting from the lattice Landau gauge gluon and ghost propagator data we use a sequence of Pad\'e approximants, identify the poles and zeros for each approximant and map them into the analytic structure of the propagators. For the Landau…
Pad\'e approximants are employed in order to study the analytic structure of the four-dimensional SU(2) Landau-gauge gluon and ghost propagators in the infrared regime. The approximants, which are model independent, are used as fitting…
The gluon propagator in Landau gauge is calculated in quenched QCD on a large (32^3X64) lattice at beta=6.0. In order to assess finite volume and finite lattice spacing artefacts, we also calculate the propagator on a smaller volume for two…
