We try to separate the perturbative and non-perturbative contributions to the plaquette of pure SU(3) gauge theory. To do this we look at the large-n asymptotic behaviour of the perturbation series in order to estimate the contribution of…
We revisit the question of the convergence of lattice perturbation theory for a pure SU(3) lattice gauge theory in 4 dimensions. Using a series for the average plaquette up to order 10 in the weak coupling parameter beta^{-1}, we show that…
A lattice study of the equation of state for pure SU(3) gauge theory using a renormalization-group (RG) improved action is presented. The energy density and pressure are calculated on a $16^3\times 4$ and a $32^3\times 8$ lattice employing…
The QCD free energy can be studied by dimensional reduction to a three-dimensional (3d) effective theory, whereby non-perturbative lattice simulations become less demanding. To connect to the original QCD a perturbative matching computation…
We develop an analytical approach for studying lattice gauge theories within the plaquette representation where the plaquette matrices play the role of the fundamental degrees of freedom. We start from the original Batrouni formulation and…
We calculate the low-lying glueball spectrum of the SU(3) lattice gauge theory in 3+1 dimensions for the range of beta up to beta=6.50 using the standard plaquette action. We do so for states in all the representations R of the cubic…
We formulate SU(3) Hamiltonian lattice QCD in terms of the plaquette variables and determine the relevant subspaces of the Hilbert space for the vacuum wave functional and its approximations. We analyze the one- and two-plaquette problems.
Thanks to dimensional reduction, the contributions to the hot QCD pressure coming from so-called soft modes can be studied via an effective three-dimensional theory named Electrostatic QCD (spatial Yang-Mills fields plus an adjoint Higgs…
We show that a simple qubit-regularized $\mathrm{SU}(3)$ lattice gauge theory (LGT) on a plaquette chain admits a continuum limit with massive glueball excitations, providing a minimal toy model of strong interactions without quarks. By…

It is shown, that the possibility of a freezing of QCD running coupling constant at zero in the approach with "forced analyticity" can not be in accord with Schwinger-Dyson equation for gluon propagator. We propose to add to the analytic…
We compute the perturbative expansion of the Lattice SU(3) plaquette to beta^(-10) order. The result is found to be consistent both with the expected renormalon behaviour and with finite size effects on top of that.
