Abstract: | The infrared behaviour of the gluon and ghost propagators in Landau gauge QCD is reviewed. The Kugo-Ojima confinement criterion and the Gribov-Zwanziger horizon condition result from quite general properties of the ghost Dyson-Schwinger equation. The numerical solutions for the gluon and ghost propagators obtained from a truncated set of Dyson-Schwinger equations provide an explicit example for the anticipated infrared behaviour. The results are in good agreement with corresponding lattice data obtained recently. The resulting running-coupling approaches a fix point in the infrared, . Two different fits for the scale dependence of the running coupling are given and discussed.Received: 30 September 2002, Published online: 22 October 2003PACS: 12.38.Aw General properties of QCD (dynamics, confinement, etc.) - 14.70.Dj Gluons - 12.38.Lg Other nonperturbative calculations - 11.15.Tk Other nonperturbative techniques - 02.30.Rz Integral equations |
