The Gribov-Zwanziger framework accounting for the existence of Gribov copies is extended to N=1 Super Yang--Mills theories quantized in the Landau gauge. We show that the restriction of the domain of integration in the Euclidean functional…
In this proceeding, $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills theory is quantized in the linear covariant gauges, while taking into account the issue of Gribov copies and we construct the one-loop effective potential for a set of mass dimension 2 condensates,…

In a previous paper \cite{Simple} it was shown that the BRST charge $Q$ for any gauge model with a Lie algebra symmetry may be decomposed as $Q=\del+\del^{\dag},\;\;\;\del^2=\del^{\dag 2}=0,\;\;\;[\del, \del^{\dag}]_+=0$ provided dynamical…
We point out the existence of a non-perturbative exact nilpotent BRST symmetry for the Gribov-Zwanziger action in the Landau gauge. We then put forward a manifestly BRST invariant resolution of the Gribov gauge fixing ambiguity in the…
We generalise a result of Aste and Scharf saying that, under some reasonable assumptions, consistent with renormalisation theory, the non-Abelian gauge theories describes the only possibility of coupling the gluons. The proof is done using…
We show that in SU(2) Yang-Mills theories a simple relation exists between lattice gluon propagators in Coulomb and Landau gauge and discuss the physical implications of such result. In particular, the realization of the Gribov-Zwanziger…

The dynamics of the gauge sector of QCD give rise to nonperturbative phenomena that are crucial for the internal consistency of the theory; most notably, they account for the generation of a gluon mass through the action of the Schwinger…
Some interesting nonperturbative properties of the strongly coupled 4D compact U(1) lattice gauge theories, both without and with matter fields, are pointed out. We demonstrate that the pure gauge theory has a non-Gaussian fixed point with…
The Laplacian gauge on the lattice is investigated numerically using U(1) and SU(2) gauge fields. The problem of Gribov ambiguities is addressed and to asses the smoothness of the gauge fixed configurations, they are compared to…
Perturbation theory in the nonperturbative QCD vacuum and the non-Abelian Stokes theorem, representing a Wilson loop in the SU(2) gluodynamics as an integral over all the orientations in colour space, are applied to derivation of the…
A natural gradual extension of the idea of Grand Unification is to attempt to relate the gauge and Yukawa couplings; Gauge-Yukawa Unification (GYU). However, within the framework of renormalizable field theories, there exists no realistic…
We consider a local, renormalizable, BRST-invariant action for QCD in Coulomb gauge that contains auxiliary bose and fermi ghost fields. It possess a non-perturbative vacuum that spontaneously breaks BRST-invariance. The vacuum condition…
This study proposes that the longstanding problems of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) as an SU(3)_C gauge theory, the confinement mechanism and \Theta vacuum, can be resolved by dynamical spontaneous symmetry breaking (DSSB) through the…
Gauge-fixing as a sampling procedure of gauge copies provides a possibility to construct well-defined gauges also beyond perturbation theory. The implementation of such sampling strategies in lattice gauge theory is briefly outlined, and…
We propose to realize a mass gap in QCD by not imposing the transversality condition on the full gluon self-energy, while preserving the color gauge invariance condition for the full gluon propagator. This is justified by the nonlinear and…
Supersymmetric gauge theories are an essential part of most theories beyond the standard model. In the present work we investigate the pure gauge sector of Super-QCD focusing on the bound states, i.e. mesonic gluinoballs, gluino-glueballs…
