We establish a novel method of obtaining the gauge-invariant bilocal condensate of gluon fields from the solutions of the Dyson--Schwinger equations (DSE) which works in the infrared and ultraviolet limits. We present explicit results for…
We review a nonlocal-condensate approach and its application in QCD sum rules for the spacelike electromagnetic pion form factor. It is shown that the nonlocality of the condensates is a key point to include nonperturbative contributions to…
The interquark static potential for heavy mesons described by a massive One Gluon Exchange interaction obtained from the propagator of the truncated Dyson-Schwinger equations does not reproduced the expected Cornell potential. I show that…
We deliver a new scheme to compute the quark propagator and the quark-gluon interaction vertex through the coupled Dyson-Schwinger equations (DSEs) of QCD. We take the three-gluon vertex into account in our calculations, and implement the…
Local formulations of quantum field theory provide a powerful framework in which non-perturbative aspects of QCD can be analysed. Here we report on how this approach can be used to elucidate the general analytic features of QCD propagators,…
Using the Cornwall-Jackiw-Tomboulis effective potential for composite operators we compute the QCD vacuum energy as a function of the dynamical quark and gluon propagators, which are related to their respective condensates as predicted by…
Within the framework of the Dyson-Schwinger equations in the axial gauge, we study the effect that non-perturbative glue has on the quark propagator. We show that Ward-Takahashi identities, combined with the requirement of matching…

We suggest a somewhat indirect method for estimation of the nonlocal scalar quark condensate. The approach is based on analysis of the polarization operator of nucleon current in instanton medium.
Using the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model, we study the density dependence of the quark and gluon condensates in nuclear matter. We show that the change of the quark condensate is mainly driven by the scalar field in the medium and that…
In these proceedings I review the status of an ongoing project that aims at solving the quark propagator Dyson-Schwinger equation in the complex domain. The novel aspect of the approach is that the non-analyticities arising throughout the…
The quark <\bar\psi \psi> and gluon <F_{\mu\nu}F^{\mu\nu}> vacuum expectation values are non-vanishing at low orders in \alpha_s when the perturbative ground state includes quark and gluon pairs. This offers possibilities of studying the…
It is shown that the solution of the quark Dyson-Schwinger equation in QCD obtained with a gluon propagator of the form $D(q) \sim q^2/[q^4+b^4]$ and a quark-gluon vertex that is free of kinematic singularities does not describe a confined…
We investigate the propagation of nonlinear energy density waves in a nonextensive quark-gluon plasma under the influence of a magnetic field using the reductive perturbation technique. For a nonextensive MIT bag equation of state, we…
The structure of the quark propagator of $QCD$ in a confining background is not known. We make an Ansatz for it, as hinted by a particular mechanism for confinement, and analyze its implications in the meson and baryon correlators. We…
Time dependence for barrier penetration is considered in the phase space. An asymptotic phase-space propagator for nonrelativistic scattering on a one - dimensional barrier is constructed. The propagator has a form universal for various…
The quark condensate is calculated within the world-line effective-action formalism, by using for the Wilson loop an ansatz provided by the stochastic vacuum model. Starting with the relation between the quark and the gluon condensates in…
After a general discussion on the choice of gauge, we compare the quark propagator in the background of one instanton in regular and singular gauge with a gauge invariant propagator obtained by inserting a path-ordered gluon exponential.…
We introduced here the study of a QCD based on a complex group. Our aim is to show that a gauge theory with a complex symmetry develops some of the features required for the description of a confined phase. This theory leads to gluons with…
It is shown in a systematic way that the instanton dilute model can be combined with the global colour symmetry model to form a new nonperturbative QCD model. Based on the quark propagator derived in the instanton dilute liquid…
