Yang-Mills glueball masses from spectral reconstruction

We compute masses of the two lightest glueballs from spectral reconstructions of timelike interaction channels of the four-gluon vertex in Landau gauge Yang-Mills theory. The Euclidean spacelike dressings of the vertex are calculated with the functional renormalisation group. For the spectral reconstruction of these Euclidean data, we employ Gaussian process regression. The glueball resonances can be identified straightforwardly and we obtain $m_{sc} = 1870(75)~$ MeV as well as $m_{ps} = 2700(120)~$ MeV, in accordance with functional bound state and lattice calculations.

On Gauge Consistency In Gauge-Fixed Yang-Mills Theory

We investigate BRST invariance in Landau gauge Yang-Mills theory with functional methods. To that end, we solve the coupled system of functional renormalisation group equations for the momentum-dependent ghost and gluon propagator, ghost-gluon, and three- and four-gluon vertex dressings. The equations for both, transverse and longitudinal correlation functions are solved self-consistently: all correlation functions are fed back into the loops. Additionally, we also use the Slavnov-Taylor identities for computing the longitudinal correlation functions on the basis of the above results. Then, the gauge consistency of the solutions is checked by comparing the respective longitudinal correlation functions. We find good agreement of these results, hinting at the gauge consistency of our setup.

QMeS-Derivation: Mathematica package for the symbolic derivation of functional equations

We present the Mathematica package QMeS-Derivation. It derives symbolic functional equations from a given master equation. The latter include functional renormalisation group equations, Dyson-Schwinger equations, Slavnov-Taylor and Ward identities and their modifications in the presence of momentum cutoffs. The modules allow to derive the functional equations, take functional derivatives, trace over field space, apply a given truncation scheme, and do momentum routings while keeping track of prefactors and signs that arise from fermionic commutation relations. The package furthermore contains an installer as well as Mathematica notebooks with showcase examples.
