We study the scaling properties of the static quark potential and the ratio of the critical temperature $T_c$ to the square root of the string tension $\sigma$ in the SU(3) pure gauge theory using a renormalization group improved action. We…
We determine the critical couplings for the deconfinement phase transition in $SU(2)$ gauge theory on $N_\tau \times N_\sigma^3$ lattices with $N_\tau = 8$ and 16 and $N_\sigma$ varying between 16 and 48. A comparison with string tension…
For N>4 there is a first order bulk transition that cleanly separates the strong and weak coupling regimes of SU(N) lattice gauge theories with the plaquette action. We find that in this case the calculated string tension can be readily…

We investigate -- as an alternative to usual Monte Carlo Renormalization Group methods -- the feasibility of extracting QCD beta-functions directly from a lattice analysis of correlations between the action and Wilson loops. We test this…
We study truncation effects in the SU(3) gauge actions obtained by the Monte Carlo renormalization group method. By measuring the heavy quark potential we find that the truncation effects in the actions coarsen the lattice by 40-50 % from…
Recently the Yang-Mills gradient flow of pure SU(3) lattice gauge theory has been calculated in the range from $\beta=6/g_0^2=6.3$ to~7.5 (Asakawa et al.), where $g_0^2$ is the bare coupling constant of the SU(3) Wilson action. Estimates of…
Interpreting the way that the SU(3) bare lattice coupling runs with the lattice spacing is complicated by the fact that there is a smooth cross-over region in which the strong coupling expansion transforms into a weak-coupling one. For N >…
In this paper we show that the apparent failure of QCD lattice perturbation theory to account for Monte Carlo measurements of perturbative quantities results from choosing the bare lattice coupling constant as the expansion parameter. Using…

We have calculated the $q\bar q$ potential over a wide range of lattice separations on a $48^3\cdot56$ lattice at $\beta = 2.85$. We are able to investigate both long-range and (by correcting for the effects of lack of rotational…
We compute the QCD running coupling on the lattice as defined from the 3-gluon vertex. We present the results of an exploratory study at $\beta=6.0$ on a $16^4$ lattice, which show that for momenta larger than 2 \Gev, the coupling runs…

We calculate numerically the renormalization group (RG) flow of lattice QCD in two-coupling space, $(\beta_{1\times 1},\beta_{1\times 2})$. This is the first explicit calculation of the RG flow of SU(3) gauge theory. From the RG flow,a…
We have applied a new gauge-invariant, noncompact, Monte Carlo method to simulate the $U(1)$, $SU(2)$, and $SU(3)$ gauge theories on $8^4$ and $12^4$ lattices. The Creutz ratios of the Wilson loops agree with the exact results for $U(1)$…
