Abstract

Perturbative coefficients for Wilson loops and the static quark self-energy are extracted from Monte Carlo simulations at large beta on finite volumes, where all the lattice momenta are large. The Monte Carlo results are in excellent agreement with perturbation theory through second order. New results for third order coefficients are reported. Twisted boundary conditions are used to eliminate zero modes and to suppress Z3 tunneling.
