The Schwinger-Dyson formalism is used to check the consistency of instanton model solutions for the quark propagator with recent models of confining gluon propagators. We find that the models are not consistent. A major discrepancy is the…

The pole mass of a heavy quark is ambiguous by an amount of order $\Lambda_{QCD}$. We show that the heavy-quark potential, $V(r)$, is similarly ambiguous, but that the total static energy, $2M_{pole}+V(r)$, is unambiguous when expressed in…

We report on the status of a study of the quark propagator and quark-gluon vertex in momentum space. Quark propagators have been generated at beta=6.0 using the O(a)-improved Sheikholeslami-Wohlert action and fixed to the Landau gauge. The…

We begin by giving correct expressions for the short-time action; following the work of one of us and Makri--Miller. We use these estimates to derive a correct expression modulo modulo delta(t)sqr for the quantum propagator and we show that…

We study the properties of massless and massive quarks coupled with a scalar and pseudoscalar boson at finite temperature in Yukawa models at the one-loop order. The behavior of the spectral function and the pole structure of the propagator…

It is shown by numerical calculations that the convoluted QCD pomeron propagator in the external field created by a solution of the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation in the nuclear matter vanishes at high rapidities. This may open a possibility…

*REVISED VERSION* Two quark propagators with different analytic structure are employed in on and off mass-shell Bethe-Salpeter type equations for the pion and scalar diquark form-factors. One of the quark propagators has been calculated…

We study the Dyson-Schwinger equation for the quark propagator in Minkowski space. In order to have analytical behaviour at the timelike axis of momenta under control, we use the Stieltjes and the Hilbert transformation for the interaction…

We use a light-cone approach to solve the Schwinger-Dyson equation for the quark propagator. We show how this method can be used to solve the equation beyond the space-like region, to which one is usually restricted with the usual…

Most discussions of propagators in Lee-Wick theories focus on the presence of two massive complex conjugate poles in the propagator. We show that there is in fact only one pole near the physical region, or in another representation three…

The existence of genuine complex conjugated poles in the gluon propagator is discussed and related to confinement, string tension and condensates. The existence of the anomalous poles leads to an untrivial analytic continuation from…

We propose a practical procedure to extrapolate the space-like quark propagator onto the complex plane, which follows the Schlessinger Point Method and the spectral representation of the propagator. As a feasible example, we employ quark…

We calculate the spectral function of light quark flavours in 2+1 flavour vacuum QCD in the isospin-symmetric approximation. We employ spectral Dyson-Schwinger equations and compute the non-perturbative quark propagator directly in…

We exhibit soliton solutions of QCD in two dimensions that have the quantum numbers of quarks. They exist only for quarks heavier than the dimensional gauge coupling, and have infinite energy, corresponding to the presence of a string…

We improve on Cutkosky's cutting rules which is used to calculate the contribution of the singularities of Feynman propagators to Feynman amplitude. The correctness of the improved cutting rules is verified by the calculations of the…

We perform complex analyses of the gluon propagator at nonzero quark chemical potential in the long-wavelength limit, using an effective model with a gluon mass term of the Landau-gauge Yang-Mills theory, which is a Landau-gauge limit of…

The proper time formalism for a particle propagator in an external electromagnetic field is combined with the path-dependent formulation of the gauge theory to simplify the quasiclassical propagator. The latter is achieved due to a specific…

A Lagrangian for quantum electrodynamics is found which makes it explicit that the photon mass is eventually set to zero in the physical part on observational ground. It remains possible to obtain a counterterm Lagrangian where the only…

We study the causal structure of the quark propagator with the spectral DSE. The spectral gap equation is solved with the input of the spectral representation of the gluon and a causal STI-construction for the quark-gluon vertex. The latter…

The renormalised quark Dyson-Schwinger equation is studied in the limit of the renormalised current heavy quark mass m_R --> infinity. We are particularly interested in the analytic pole structure of the heavy quark propagator in the…
