Using Mandelstam's approximation to the gluon Dyson-Schwinger equation we calculate the gluon self-energy in a renormalisation group invariant fashion. We obtain a non-perturbative $\beta $ function. The scaling behaviour near the…
This letter reports on the first computation, from data obtained in lattice QCD with $u,d,s$ and $c$ quarks in the sea, of the running strong coupling via the ghost-gluon coupling renormalized in the MOM Taylor scheme. We provide with…
One possibility for Beyond Standard Model physics is a new strongly-interacting gauge theory. One way to determine if a non-abelian gauge theory is QCD-like or conformal is to measure the running of the renormalized gauge coupling. We…
We present an updated version of a QCD coupling which fulfills various physically motivated conditions: at high momenta it practically coincides with the perturbative QCD (pQCD) coupling; at intermediate momenta it reproduces correctly the…
Non-perturbative properties of QCD, such as color confinement, are encoded in the infrared behavior of correlation functions, e.g. propagators and vertices. Various analytic predictions have been suggested for these quantities in various…

We study the behavior of the gluon and ghost dressing functions in SU(3) Landau gauge at low momenta available on lattice sizes 12^4-32^4 at $\beta$=5.8, 6.0 and 6.2. We demonstrate the ghost dressing function to be systematically dependent…
We study numerically the Schwinger-Dyson equations for the coupled system of gluon and ghost propagators in the Landau gauge and in the case of pure gauge QCD. We show that a dynamical mass for the gluon propagator arises as a solution…
