An all-order proof of the equivalence between Gribov's no-pole and Zwanziger's horizon conditions
The quantization of non-Abelian gauge theories is known to be plagued by
Gribov copies. Typical examples are the copies related to zero modes of the
Faddeev-Popov operator, which give rise to singularities in the ghost
propagator. In this work we present an exact and compact expression for the
ghost propagator as a function of external gauge fields, in SU(N) Yang-Mills
theory in the Landau gauge. It is shown, to all orders, that the condition for
the ghost propagator not to have a pole, the so-called Gribov's no-pole
condition, can be implemented by demanding a nonvanishing expectation value for
a functional of the gauge fields that turns out to be Zwanziger's horizon
function. The action allowing to implement this condition is the
Gribov-Zwanziger action. This establishes in a precise way the equivalence
between Gribov's no-pole condition and Zwanziger's horizon condition.Comment: 11 pages, typos corrected, version accepted for publication in Phys.

Renormalization aspects of N=1 Super Yang-Mills theory in the Wess-Zumino gauge
The renormalization of N=1 Super Yang-Mills theory is analysed in the
Wess-Zumino gauge, employing the Landau condition. An all orders proof of the
renormalizability of the theory is given by means of the Algebraic
Renormalization procedure. Only three renormalization constants are needed,
which can be identified with the coupling constant, gauge field and gluino
renormalization. The non-renormalization theorem of the gluon-ghost-antighost
vertex in the Landau gauge is shown to remain valid in N=1 Super Yang-Mills.
Moreover, due to the non-linear realization of the supersymmetry in the
Wess-Zumino gauge, the renormalization factor of the gauge field turns out to
be different from that of the gluino. These features are explicitly checked
through a three loop calculation.Comment: 15 pages, minor text improvements, references added. Version accepted

Gribov horizon and BRST symmetry: a pathway to confinement
We summarize the construction of the Gribov-Zwanziger action and how it leads
to a scenario which explains the confinement of gluons, in the sense that the
elementary gluon excitations violate positivity. Then we address the question
of how one can construct operators within this picture whose one-loop
correlation functions have the correct analytic properties in order to
correspond to physical excitations. For this we introduce the concept of
i-particles.Comment: 5 pages, proceedings of XII Mexican Workshop on Particles and Fields
