On the infrared behavior of Landau gauge Yang–Mills theory

Abstract: We discuss the properties of ghost and gluon propagators in the deep infrared momentum region of Landau gauge Yang-Mills theory. Within the framework of Dyson-Schwinger equations and the functional renormalization group we demonstrate that it is only a matter of infrared boundary conditions whether infrared scaling or decoupling occurs. We argue that the second possibility is at odds with global BRST symmetry in the confining phase. For this purpose we improve upon existing truncation schemes in particular wit… Show more

“…Semi-analytical functional approaches to the calculation of gluon and ghost propagators in the infrared, mostly using Dyson-Schwinger equations, have been successful in Landau gauge Yang-Mills theory [12]- [14]. In the so-called ghost dominance approximation, even very simple analytical solutions exist in the far infrared [7], [15]- [17].…”

“…The gluon propagator has been studied intensely in the past both on the lattice, with DSEs and the FRG due to its supposed connection with confinement of the non-Abelian gauge theory, see e.g. [200,216,227,[229][230][231][232][233][234][235][236] and references therein. Due to its much more complicated structure, the nonperturbative three-gluon vertex has only been begun to be explored in numerical simulations in recent years, see e.g.…”

“…The idea of a gluon mass was explored by different authors [9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16]. Starting from the Dyson-Schwinger equations (DSE) for the gluon and ghost propagators, after a suitable truncation scheme, the equations were solved and the transverse part of the gluon propagator described by a massive type propagator, i.e.…”
