In quantum chromodynamics (QCD), the vacuum structures are taken to be formed by nonperturbative interactions between gluons. The contributions of gluonic interactions can be parametrized by gluon condensates and especially the dimension-2…

The physical meaning of a mass gap introduced by Jaffe and Witten is to be responsible for the large-scale (low-energy/momentum), i.e., the non-perturbative structure of the true QCD vacuum. In order to make the existence of a mass gap…
We present a non-perturbative multiplicative renormalization program for the massive gluon fields. This has been done within the previously formulated the mass gap approach to QCD. It is based on a new insights into its ground state true…

We have explicitly shown that QCD is the color gauge invariant theory at non-zero mass gap as well. It has been defined as the value of the regularized full gluon self-energy at some finite point. The mass gap is mainly generated by the…

The gluon propagator is one of the fundamental Green's functions of QCD. It is an essential ingredient in, for example, the modeling of the Schwinger-Dyson equation used to describe hadronic phenomenology. From the Landau gauge gluon…
A gauge invariant, non-local observable is constructed in lattice pure gauge theory, which is identical to the gluon propagator in a particular gauge. The transfer matrix formalism is used to show that this correlator decays exponentially…
I derive expressions for various correlators of the gauge field and find propagators in a new gauge A^\tau=0. This gauge is a part of the wedge form of relativistic dynamics suggested earlier as the tool for the study of quantum dynamics in…
The gauge-invariant generation of a dynamical, momentum-dependent gluon mass is intimately connected with the presence of non-perturbative massless poles in the vertices of the theory, which trigger the well-known Schwinger mechanism. In…
The development of a Modified Perturbation Theory for QCD, introduced in previous works, is continued. The gluon propagator is modified as consequence of a soft gluon pairs condensate in the vacuum. The modified Feynman rules for $\alpha=1$…
In SU(2) lattice gauge theory, a new self-restricted cooling procedure is developed to uncover the gauge invariant vortex vacuum texture. The emerging vortex vacuum structure amounts to the full string tension and gives rise to a mass…
The general scale parameter, having the dimensions of mass squared, is dynamically generated in the QCD gluon sector. It is introduced through the difference between the regularized full gluon self-energy and its value at some finite point.…

The interpretation of the Landau gauge lattice gluon propagator as a massive type bosonic propagator is investigated for i) an infrared constant gluon mass; ii) an ultraviolet constant gluon mass; iii) a momentum dependent mass. We find…
We study a recently proposed gauge invariant, non-local pure gauge observable, which is equivalent to the gluon propagator in a certain gauge. The correlator describes a gluon coupled to static sources and decays with eigenvalues of the…
The implementation of the linear covariant gauge on the lattice faces a conceptual problem: using the standard compact discretization, the gluon field is bounded, while the four-divergence of the gluon field satisfies a Gaussian…
Gluon propagator in the infrared limit, computed in the Landau gauge, can be cast into an universal form with a running mass for the gluon. In this way we are able to show that all the proposals appeared so far in literature are equivalent…
