Gluon two- and three-point Green Functions computed in Landau gauge from the lattice show the existence of power corrections to the purely perturbative expressions, that can be explained through an Operator Product Expansion as the…
A longstanding puzzle concerns the calculation of the gluino condensate <{tr\lambda^2\over 16\pi^2}> = c\Lambda^3 in N=1 supersymmetric SU(N) gauge theory: so-called weak-coupling instanton (WCI) calculations give c=1, whereas…

The instanton/sphaleron processes involve gauge fields with changing topology through a nonzero variation of the Chern-Simons number $\delta N_{CS}=\pm 1$. In QCD this leads to the production of $2N_f \delta N_{CS}$ units of axial charge,…

Using lattice simulations of quenched QCD we estimate the finite size effects present when a gluon plasma equilibrates in a slab geometry, i.e., finite width but large transverse dimensions. Significant differences are observed in the free…
