Large volume behaviour of Yang-Mills propagators
Christian S. Fischer, Axel Maas, Jan M. Pawlowski +1
We investigate finite volume effects in the propagators of Landau gauge Yang-Mills theory using Dyson-Schwinger equations on a 4-dimensional torus. In particular, we demonstrate ex…
Spectral density in resonance region and analytic confinement
Alex C. Kalloniatis, Sergei N. Nedelko, Lorenz von Smekal
We study the role of finite widths of resonances in a nonlocal version of the Wick-Cutkosky model. The spectrum of bound states is known analytically in this model and forms linear…
Electric Flux Sectors and Confinement
Lorenz von Smekal, Philippe de Forcrand
We study the fate of static fundamental charges in the thermodynamic limit from Monte-Carlo simulations of SU(2) with suitable boundary conditions.
The Kugo-Ojima Confinement Criterion from Dyson-Schwinger Equations
Reinhard Alkofer, Lorenz von Smekal, Peter Watson
Prerequisites of confinement in the covariant and local description of QCD are reviewed. In particular, the Kugo-Ojima confinement criterion, the positivity violations of transvers…
What the Infrared Behavior of QCD Green Functions can tell us about Confinement in the Covariant Gauge
Lorenz von Smekal, Reinhard Alkofer
We review aspects of confinement in the covariant and local description of QCD and discuss to what extend our present knowledge of the infrared behavior of QCD Green functions can…
The Infrared Behavior of Propagators in Landau Gauge QCD
Reinhard Alkofer, Steven Ahlig, Lorenz von Smekal
A closed system of equations for the propagators of Landau gauge QCD is obtained in a truncation scheme for their Dyson-Schwinger equations which implements the Slavnov-Taylor iden…
