Riemannian manifolds dual to static spacetimes
Carolina Figueiredo, José Natário
We establish a one-to-one correspondence between static spacetimes and Riemannian manifolds that maps causal geodesics to geodesics, as suggested by L. C. Epstein. We then explore…
Gluon mass scale through nonlinearities and vertex interplay
A. C. Aguilar, M. N. Ferreira, C. T. Figueiredo +1
We present a novel analysis of the gluon gap equation, where its full nonlinear structure is duly taken into account. In particular, while in previous treatments the linearization…
Nonperturbative Ball-Chiu construction of the three-gluon vertex
A. C. Aguilar, M. N. Ferreira, C. T. Figueiredo +1
We present the detailed derivation of the longitudinal part of the three-gluon vertex from the Slavnov-Taylor identities that it satisfies, by means of a nonperturbative implementa…
Nonperturbative structure of the ghost-gluon kernel
A. C. Aguilar, M. N. Ferreira, C. T. Figueiredo +1
The ghost-gluon scattering kernel is a special correlation function that is intimately connected with two fundamental vertices of the gauge sector of QCD: the ghost-gluon vertex, w…
Effects of the ghost sector in gluon mass dynamics
A. C. Aguilar, C. T. Figueiredo
In this work, we investigate the effects of the ghost sector on the dynamical mass generation for the gauge boson of a pure Yang-Mills theory. The generation of a dynamical mass fo…
Evidence of ghost suppression in gluon mass dynamics
A. C. Aguilar, D. Binosi, C. T. Figueiredo +1
In this work we study the impact that the ghost sector of pure Yang-Mills theories may have on the generation of a dynamical gauge boson mass, which hinges on the appearance of mas…
Unified description of seagull cancellations and infrared finiteness of gluon propagators
A. C. Aguilar, D. Binosi, C. T. Figueiredo +1
We present a generalized theoretical framework for dealing with the important issue of dynamical mass generation in Yang-Mills theories, and, in particular, with the infrared finit…
Mass generation and the problem of seagull divergences
C. T. Figueiredo, A. C. Aguilar
The gluon mass generation is a purely non-perturbative effect, and the natural framework to study it in the continuum are the Schwinger-Dyson equations (SDEs) of the theory. At the…
