The low energy behavior of a recently proposed model for the massive analytic running coupling of QCD is studied. This running coupling has no unphysical singularities, and in the absence of masses displays infrared enhancement. The…
Several extensions of the standard model feature new colored states that besides modifying the running of the QCD coupling could even lead to the loss of asymptotic freedom. Such a loss would potentially diminish the Wilsonian fundamental…

An analytic ghost-free model for the QCD running coupling $\alpha(Q^2)$ is proposed. It is constructed from a more general approach we developed particularly for investigating physical observables of the type $F(Q^2)$ in regions that are…
The quark-antiquark potential is constructed by making use of a new analytic running coupling in QCD. This running coupling arises under ``analytization'' of the renormalization group equation. The rising behavior of the quark-antiquark…
We present a simple parameterization of a running coupling constant, defined via the static potential, that interpolates between 2-loop QCD in the UV and the string prediction in the IR. Besides the usual $\Lam$-parameter and the string…
We extend our recent analytic study of the strong coupling $\alpha_{\rm eff}$ in the nonperturbative and near-perturbative regimes~\cite{deTeramond:2024ikl} by imposing rigorous renormalization-group results from asymptotically free gauge…
We report on recent experimental and theoretical developments in our understanding of the QCD running coupling \alpha_s in QCD's nonperturbative regime. They allow us to analytically compute the hadron mass spectrum, with \Lambda_s the only…
We present a one-loop calculation of a gauge invariant QCD beta function. Using both momentum and temperature renormalization group equations we investigate the running coupling in the magnetic sector as a function of temperature and…
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the gauge field theory of the Strong Interaction, has specific features, asymptotic freedom and confinement, which determine the behaviour of quarks and gluons in particle reactions at high and at low energy…
We analyze two sets of specific functions, that/which form the basis of the nonpower asymptotic expansions both in the timelike and spacelike regions for single scale dependent QCD observables in the Shirkov--Solovtsov's Analytic…
As is known from QED, a possible solution to the ghost-pole trouble can be obtained by imposing the $Q^2$-analyticity imperative. Here, the pole is compensated by the $\alpha$ non-analytic contribution that results in finite coupling…
We construct models of analytic QCD (i.e.,with the running coupling parameter free of Landau singularities) which address several problems encountered in previous analytic QCD models, among them their incompatibility with the ITEP-OPE…
A new model for the QCD analytic running coupling, which incorporates the effects due to the $\pi$ meson mass, is proposed. The properties of this invariant charge in spacelike and timelike regions are examined. Its main distinctive…
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…
In this work, a way starting from beta function is presented for obtaining well-defined coupling constant in UV and IR region. In the approach presented here, obvious singularity is removed, and asymptotic behaviour is reserved fully and…
Solving the QCD renormalization group equation at the 2-loop and 3-loop orders we obtain explicit expressions for the coupling as a function of the scale in terms of the Lambert W function. We study the nature of the ``Landau…
We construct simple analytical solutions of renormalization group equations for the running coupling and for the Green functions in QCD in the asymptotic regime. These solutions have an explicit form and subsequently sum up the leading,…
The QCD effective charge $\alpha_{g_1}(Q)$ is an observable that characterizes the magnitude of the strong interaction. At high momentum $Q$, it coincides with the QCD running coupling $\alpha_{\rm s}(Q)$. At low $Q$, it offers a…
We study deviations from the perturbative asymptotic behaviour in the running QCD coupling by analysing non-perturbative measurements of alpha_s (p) at low momenta as obtained from the lattice three-gluon vertex. Our exploratory study…
