We study by numerical simulations on a lattice the behaviour of the gauge-invariant two-point correlation functions of the gauge-field strengths across the deconfinement phase transition, both for the pure-gauge SU(3) theory and for full…
In this thesis, we perform the lattice QCD analysis via the energy-momentum component of gluons. By introducing the momentum cutoff to the link variable, we investigate which energy-momentum components of gluons induce each QCD phenomenon.…
We determine the non-perturbative gluon condensate of four-dimensional SU(3) gauge theory in a model independent way. This is achieved by carefully subtracting high order perturbation theory results from non-perturbative lattice QCD…
We report on an instanton-based analysis of the gluon Green functions in the Landau gauge for low momenta; in particular we use lattice results for $\alpha_s$ in the symmetric momentum subtraction scheme (${\rm MOM}$) for large-volume…
We improve the non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) action by comparing the dispersion relation to that of the continuum through $\mathcal{O}(p^6)$ in perturbation theory. The one-loop matching coefficients of the $\mathcal{O}(p^4)$ kinetic…
Recent data of lattice measurements of the gauge-invariant nonlocal scalar quark condensates are analyzed to extract the short--distance correlation length, 1/\lambda_q, and to construct an admissible Ansatz for the condensate behaviour in…
We revisit the computation of the three-gluon vertex in the Landau gauge using lattice QCD simulations with large physical volumes of $\sim$ (6.5 fm)$^ 4$ and $\sim$ (8 fm)$^ 4$ and large statistical ensembles. For the kinematical…
Some very recent computations of $\alpha_{\bar{\rm MS}}(M_Z)$ from $N_f=1+1$ lattice simulations and of the running of the Strong coupling, obtained from the lattice ghost-gluon vertex, over a large momentum window are very briefly…
Discretization artifacts proportional to the quark mass can limit the precision of strong-coupling determinations in lattice QCD, especially in the presence of heavy quarks. In this work, we perform a lattice perturbative analysis of such…
We present an analysis of the role of the running coupling constant at the intersection of perturbative and nonperturbative QCD. Although the approaches that have been considered so far in these two regimes appear to be complementary to…
We give a more transparent understanding of the vacuum expectation value of the renormalised local operator A^2 by relating it to the gluon propagator integrated over the momentum. The quadratically divergent perturbative contribution is…
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…
The decay rate of the $\tau$ lepton into hadrons of invariant mass smaller than $Q\gg\Lambda_{\rm QCD}$ can be calculated in QCD using the OPE. Using experimental data on the hadronic mass distribution, the running coupling constant…
Lattice simulations of the QCD correlation functions in the Landau gauge have established two remarkable facts. First, the coupling constant in the gauge sector remains finite and moderate at all scales, suggesting that some kind of…
The interplay between the finite volume and finite lattice spacing is investigated using lattice QCD simulations to compute the Landau gauge gluon propagator. Comparing several ensembles with different lattice spacings and physical volumes,…
The structure of the beta function of massless QCD is considered in analytic perturbation theory (APT). The two-loop analytic effective coupling is written in terms of the Lambert W function. The method of APT is applied to the gluon…
We calculate the O(g^2 a) mixing coefficients of bilinear quark operators in lattice QCD using a standard perturbative evaluation of on-shell Green's functions. Our results for the plaquette gluon action are in agreement with those…
Higher-loop corrections to the pseudoscalar ($0^{-+}$) gluonium correlation function will be used to obtain the leading gluon condensate contributions to the subtraction-independent QCD sum-rules. The effect of these higher-loop corrections…
The gluon propagator in Landau gauge is calculated on the lattice for SU(2) gauge theory. In particular the manifestation of confinement in the gluon propagator is studied. Removing the confining center vortices from the Yang-Mills ensemble…
This talk was presented to a non-lattice audience at the June, 1992 Paris Workshop on QCD Vacuum Structure. We report on the status of quark and gluon propagators in quenched, gaugefixed lattice QCD. In Landau gauge we find that the…
