In this talk we report on recent results for the quark propagator on a
compact manifold. The corresponding Dyson-Schwinger equations on a torus are
solved on volumes similar to the ones used in lattice calculations. The
quark-gluon interaction is fixed such that the lattice results are reproduced.
We discuss both the effects in the infinite volume/continuum limit as well as
effects when the volume is small.Comment: 3 pages, 3 figures; talk given by CF at QNP06, Madrid, June 200
