We set up an infrared-based moment problem to obtain estimates of the masses scalar, pseudoscalar, and tensor glueballs in Euclidean Yang-Mills theories using refined Gribov-Zwanziger (RGZ) version Landau gauge, which takes into account nonperturbative physics related gauge copies. Employing lattice input for mass scales RGZ gluon propagator, lowest order approximation gives values ${m}_{0++}\ensuremath{\approx}1.96\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{GeV}$, ${m}_{2++}\ensuremath{\approx}2.04\text{...

We present a local setup for the recently introduced BRST-invariant formulation of Yang-Mills theories linear covariant gauges that takes into account existence gauge copies \`a la Gribov and Zwanziger. Through convenient use auxiliary fields, including one Stueckelberg type, it is shown both action associated nilpotent BRST operator can be put in form. Direct consequences this fully BRST-symmetric framework are drawn from its Ward identities: (i) an exact prediction longitudinal part gluon...

Restricting the functional integral to Gribov region $\ensuremath{\Omega}$ leads a deep modification of behavior Euclidean Yang-Mills theories in infrared region. For example, gluon propagator type, $\frac{{k}^{2}}{{k}^{4}+{\stackrel{^}{\ensuremath{\gamma}}}^{4}}$, can be viewed as propagating pair unphysical modes, called here $i$-particles, with complex masses $\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}i{\stackrel{^}{\ensuremath{\gamma}}}^{2}$. From this viewpoint, gluons are and one see them being...

In this paper, we discuss the gluon propagator in linear covariant gauges $D=2$, 3, 4 Euclidean dimensions. Nonperturbative effects are taken into account via so-called refined Gribov-Zwanziger framework. We point out that, as Landau and maximal Abelian gauges, for $D=3$, 4, displays a massive (decoupling) behavior, while scaling one emerges. All results discussed setup that respects Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) symmetry, through recently introduced nonperturbative BRST transformation....

In order to construct a gauge invariant two-point function in Yang-Mills theory, we propose the use of all-order transverse configurations A^h. Such can be obtained through minimization functional A^2_{min} along orbit within BRST formulation Gribov-Zwanziger framework recently put forward [1,2] for class linear covariant gauges. This correlator turns out provide characterization non-perturbative aspects theory and parameter independent way. particular, it that poles <A^h A^h> are same as...

The quantization of non-Abelian gauge theories is known to be plagued by Gribov copies. Typical examples are the copies related zero modes Faddeev-Popov operator, which give rise singularities in ghost propagator. In this work we present an exact and compact expression for propagator as a function external fields, SU(N) Yang-Mills theory Landau gauge. It shown, all orders, that condition not have pole, so-called Gribov's no-pole condition, can implemented demanding nonvanishing expectation...

Correlation functions are important probes for the behavior of quantum field theories. Already at tree-level, refined Gribov-Zwanziger (RGZ) effective action Yang-Mills theories provides a good approximation gluon propagator, as compared to that calculated by nonperturbative methods such lattice theory and Dyson-Schwinger equations. However, study higher correlation RGZ is still its beginning. In this work we evaluate ghost-gluon vertex function in Landau gauge one-loop level, <a:math...
