We establish exactly and uniquely the infrared structure of the full gluon propagator in QCD, not solving explicitly the corresponding dynamical equation of motion. By construction, this structure is an infinite sum over all possible severe…
We have explicitly shown that the infrared structure of the full gluon propagator in QCD is an infite sum over all severe (i.e., more singular than $1/q^2$) infrared singularities. It reflects the zero momentum modes enhancement effect in…
We propose to realize a mass gap in QCD not imposing the transversality condition on the full gluon self-energy, while preserving the color gauge invariance condition for the full gluon propagator. Since due to color confinement the gluon…
The full gluon propagator relevant for the description of the truly non-perturbative QCD dynamics, the so-called intrinsically non-perturbative gluon propagator has been derived in our previous work. It explicitly depends on the regularized…

In our previous publication [1-3] it has been proven that the general iteration solution of the Shwinger-Dyson equation for the full gluon propagator (i.e., when the skeleton loop integrals, contributing into the gluon self-energy, have to…
We show that the gauge invariant treatment of the Schwinger-Dyson equations of QCD leads to an infrared finite gluon propagator, signaling the dynamical generation of an effective gluon mass, and a non-enhanced ghost propagator, in…
We convincingly argue that the true dynamical and gauge structure of the QCD ground state is much more complicated than its Lagrangian exact gauge symmetry supposes to be. The dynamical source of these complications has been identified with…
We have explicitly shown that QCD is the color gauge invariant theory at non-zero mass gap as well. It has been defined as the value of the regularized full gluon self-energy at some finite point. The mass gap is mainly generated by the…
Infrared finite solutions for the gluon propagator of pure QCD are obtained from the gauge-invariant non-linear Schwinger-Dyson equation formulated in the Feynman gauge of the background field method. These solutions may be fitted using a…
We report on a special type of solutions for the gluon propagator of pure QCD, obtained from the corresponding non-linear Schwinger-Dyson equation formulated in the Feynman gauge of the background field method. These solutions reach a…
It has long been known that the gluon propagator in Landau-gauge QCD exhibits a mass gap; and its emergence has been ascribed to the action of the Schwinger mechanism in the gauge sector of QCD. In the present work, we relate this property…
Using the previously derived confining gluon propagator, the corresponding system of equations determining the quark propagator is derived. The system of equations consists of the Schwinger-Dyson equation for the quark propagator itself,…

The physical meaning of a mass gap introduced by Jaffe and Witten is to be responsible for the large-scale (low-energy/momentum), i.e., the non-perturbative structure of the true QCD vacuum. In order to make the existence of a mass gap…

In a functional approach to QCD the infrared behaviour of Landau gauge Green functions is investigated. Positivity violation for, and thus confinement of, gluons is demonstrated, and the analytic structure of the gluon propagator is…
We present a non-perturbative multiplicative renormalization program for the massive gluon fields. This has been done within the previously formulated the mass gap approach to QCD. It is based on a new insights into its ground state true…
