We discuss our present knowledge of α s, the fundamental running coupling or effective
charge of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). A precise understanding of the running of α s …

Yang–Mills theories are an important building block of the standard model and in particular
of quantum chromodynamics. Its correlation functions describe the behavior of its …

We determine the gluon and ghost spectral functions along with the analytic structure of the
associated propagators from numerical data describing gauge correlators at space-like …

We present a local setup for the recently introduced BRST-invariant formulation of Yang-
Mills theories for linear covariant gauges that takes into account the existence of gauge …

In this work, we investigate the momentum-dependent drag and diffusion coefficient of heavy
quarks (HQs) moving in the quark-gluon plasma background. The leading order scattering …

The refined Gribov-Zwanziger (RGZ) action in the Landau gauge accounts for the existence
of infinitesimal Gribov copies as well as the dynamical formation of condensates in the …

We calculate gluon and ghost propagators in Yang-Mills theory in linear covariant gauges.
To that end, we utilize Nielsen identities with Landau gauge propagators and vertices as the …

In this work we explore the applicability of a special gluon mass generating mechanism in
the context of the linear covariant gauges. In particular, the implementation of the Schwinger …

Correlation functions are important probes for the behavior of quantum field theories.
Already at tree-level, the refined Gribov-Zwanziger (RGZ) effective action for Yang-Mills …

The refined Gribov-Zwanziger (RGZ) action in the Landau gauge provides a local and
renormalizable framework to account for the existence of infinitesimal Gribov copies in the …
