In Landau gauge QCD the infrared behavior of the propagator of transverse gluons can be analytically determined to be a power law from Dyson-Schwinger equations. This propagator clearly shows positivity violation, indicating the absence of…

The two-loop invariant (running) coupling of QCD is written in terms of the Lambert W function. The analyticity structure of the coupling in the complex Q^2-plane is established. The corresponding analytic coupling is reconstructed via a…
The gluon propagator has been calculated for quenched QCD in the Landau gauge at beta=6.0 for volumes 16^3x48 and 32^3x64, and at beta=6.2 for volume 24^3x48$. The large volume and different lattice spacings allow us to identify and…
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 progress in our studies of propagators and three-point functions in Landau gauge for QCD and QCD-like theories is presented. Special emphasis is put on the properties of the three-gluon vertex and the quark-gluon vertex. The effect…
The full gluon propagator relevant for the description of the truly non-perturbative QCD dynamics, the so-called intrinsically non-perturbative gluon propagator has been derived in our previous work. It explicitly depends on the regularized…

The Landau-gauge gluon propagator is studied using the coarse and fine dynamical MILC configurations. The effects of dynamical quarks are clearly visible and lead to a reduction of the nonperturbative infrared enhancement relative to the…
The analytic structure of the non-perturbative gluon propagator contains information on the absence of gluons from the physical spectrum of the theory. We study this structure from numerical solutions in the complex momentum plane of the…
