I discuss some calculations of the running coupling in SU($N$) gauge theories from lattice simulations, centering on the work of the UKQCD collaboration. This talk is introductory in nature; full details have been published elsewhere.
From an accurate determination of the inter-quark potential, one can study the running coupling constant for a range of $R$-values and hence estimate the scale $\Lambda_{\msbar} $. Detailed results are presented for $SU(2)$ pure gauge…

Over the last few years lattice techniques have been used to investigate candidate theories of new physics beyond the Standard Model. This review gives a survey of results from these studies. Most of these investigations have been of…
We propose a new method to compute the running coupling constant of gauge theories on the lattice. We first give the definition of the running coupling in the new scheme using the Wilson loops in a finite volume, and explain how the running…

The strong coupling constant alpha_s(mu_0), taken at a fixed reference scale mu_0, is the single free parameter of QCD and should be known to the highest available precision. The value of alpha_s should also be determined with good accuracy…
We compute the running QCD coupling on the lattice by evaluating two-point and three-point off-shell gluon Green's functions in a fixed gauge and imposing non-perturbative renormalisation conditions on them. Our exploratory study is…
In this lecture, after recalling the basic definitions and facts about the running coupling in QCD, I present a critical discussion of the methods for measuring $\alpha_s$ and select those that appear to me as the most reliably precise
A recent lattice calculation of the QCD running coupling is presented. The coupling is extracted from the force between two static quarks in the framework of the valence quark approximation. A value of the Lambda-parameter for zero quark…
The lattice gauge theory technique for non-perturbative calculations in QCD is reviewed. The extraction of the continuum limit of lattice results is discussed with particular examples appropriate to hadron spectroscopy (the light hadrons…
We try to review the main current ideas and points of view on the running coupling constant in QCD. We begin by recalling briefly the classic analysis based on the Renormalization Group with some emphasis on the exact solutions of the RG…
Some very recent computations of $\alpha_{\bar{\rm MS}}(M_Z)$ from $N_f=1+1$ lattice simulations and of the running of the Strong coupling, obtained from the lattice ghost-gluon vertex, over a large momentum window are very briefly…
These lectures provide an introduction to lattice methods for nonperturbative studies of Quantum Chromodynamics. Lecture 1 (Ch. 2): Basic techniques for QCD and results for hadron spectroscopy using the simplest discretizations; lecture 2…
By (a) using an expression for the LATTICE potential of QCD in terms of a CONTINUUM running coupling and (b) globally parameterizing this coupling to interpolate between 2- (or higher-) loop QCD in the UV and the flux tube prediction in the…
In this paper, we examine a compact $U(1)$ lattice gauge theory in $(2+1)$ dimensions and present a strategy for studying the running coupling and extracting the non-perturbative $\Lambda$-parameter. To this end, we combine Monte Carlo…
We investigate the occurrence of power terms in the running QCD coupling by analysing non-perturbative measurements of alpha_s (p) at low momenta obtained from the lattice three-gluon vertex. Our exploratory study provides some evidence for…
I give an elementary introduction to the study of gauge theories coupled to fermions with many degrees of freedom. Besides their intrinsic interest, these theories are candidates for nonperturbative extensions of the Higgs sector of the…
The universality of the continuum limit and the applicability of renormalized perturbation theory are tested in the SU(2) lattice gauge theory by computing two different non-perturbatively defined running couplings over a large range of…
One possibility for Beyond Standard Model physics is a new strongly-interacting gauge theory. One way to determine if a non-abelian gauge theory is QCD-like or conformal is to measure the running of the renormalized gauge coupling. We…
