Lattice Gluon Propagator in the Landau Gauge: A Study Using Anisotropic Lattices


Abstract in English

Lattice gluon propagators are studied using tadpole and Symanzik improved gauge action in Landau gauge. The study is performed using anisotropic lattices with asymmetric volumes. The Landau gauge dressing function for the gluon propagator measured on the lattice is fitted according to a leading power behavior: $Z(q^2)simeq (q^2)^{2kappa}$ with an exponent $kappa$ at small momenta. The gluon propagators are also fitted using other models and the results are compared. Our result is compatible with a finite gluon propagator at zero momentum in Landau gauge.
