Infrared Exponents and the Running Coupling of Landau gauge QCD and their Relation to Confinement
Reinhard Alkofer, Christian S. Fischer, Lorenz von Smekal
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, α(0) = 8.92/Nc. Two different fits for the scale dependence of the running coupling are given and discussed.
