Faddeev-Popov spectra at the Gribov horizon

Understand

I present a perturbative calculation of the spectrum of the Faddeev-Popov operator in Coulomb gauge in three dimensions, and Landau gauge in two and three dimensions, with an ansatz for the gluon propagator as the non-perturbative input.

• The results show how the low-lying Faddeev-Popov eigenvalue spectrum is modified as the first Gribov horizon is approached, and how the spectra can differ in Coulomb and Landau gauges.
