We present SU(3) gluon propagators calculated on 48*48*48*N_t lattices at beta=6.8 where N_t=64 (corresponding the confinement phase) and N_t=16 (deconfinement) with the bare gauge parameter,alpha, set to be 0.1. In order to avoid Gribov copies, we employ the stochastic gauge fixing algorithm. Gluon propagators show quite different behavior from those of massless gauge fields: (1) In the confinement phase, G(t) shows massless behavior at small and large t, while around 5<t<15 it behaves as massive particle, and (2) effective mass observed in G(z) becomes larger as z increases. (3) In the deconfinement phase, G(z) shows also massive behavior but effective mass is less than in the confinement case. In all cases, slope masses are increasing functions of t or z, which can not be understood as addtional physical poles.

We show that in the lattice Hamiltonian limit all Coulomb gauge propagators are consistent with the Gribov-Zwanziger confinement mechanism, with an IR enhanced effective energy for quarks and gluons and a diverging ghost form factor compatible with a dual-superconducting vacuum. Multiplicative renormalizability is ensured for all static correlators, while for non-static ones their energy dependence plays a crucial role in this respect. Moreover, from the Coulomb potential we can extract the Coulomb string tension sigma_C ~ 2 sigma.
We discuss the gluon propagator in 3- and 4-dimensional Yang-Mills theories in Coulomb gauge and compare it with the corresponding Landau gauge propagator, showing that for both the relevant IR mass scale coincides. We also report preliminary results on Coulomb gauge ghost form factor and quark propagators and give a comment on the gluon propagators strong coupling limit.
We study the dominant non-perturbative power corrections to the ghost and gluon propagators in Landau gauge pure Yang-Mills theory using OPE and lattice simulations. The leading order Wilson coefficients are proven to be the same for both propagators. The ratio of the ghost and gluon propagators is thus free from this dominant power correction. Indeed, a purely perturbative fit of this ratio gives smaller value ($simeq 270$MeV) of $Lambda_{ms}$ than the one obtained from the propagators separately($simeq 320$MeV). This argues in favour of significant non-perturbative $sim 1/q^2$ power corrections in the ghost and gluon propagators. We check the self-consistency of the method.
We study the ultraviolet behaviour of the ghost and gluon propagators in quenched QCD using lattice simulations. Extrapolation of the lattice data towards the continuum allows to use perturbation theory to extract $Lambda_{text{QCD}}$ - the fundamental parameter of the pure gauge theory. The values obtained from the ghost and gluon propagators are coherent. The result for pure gauge SU(3) at three loops is $Lambda_{ms}approx 320text{MeV}$. However this value does depend strongly upon the order of perturbation theory and upon the renormalisation description of the continuum propagators. Moreover, this value has been obtained without taking into account possible power corrections to the short-distance behaviour of correlation functions.
We study the Landau gauge gluon and ghost propagators of SU(3) gauge theory, employing the logarithmic definition for the lattice gluon fields and implementing the corresponding form of the Faddeev-Popov matrix. This is necessary in order to consistently compare lattice data for the bare propagators with that of higher-loop numerical stochastic perturbation theory (NSPT). In this paper we provide such a comparison, and introduce what is needed for an efficient lattice study. When comparing our data for the logarithmic definition to that of the standard lattice Landau gauge we clearly see the propagators to be multiplicatively related. The data of the associated ghost-gluon coupling matches up almost completely. For the explored lattice spacings and sizes discretization artifacts, finite-size and Gribov-copy effects are small. At weak coupling and large momentum, the bare propagators and the ghost-gluon coupling are seen to be approached by those of higher-order NSPT.
