We consider the coupled set of spectral Dyson-Schwinger equations in Yang-Mills theory for ghost and gluon propagators, which gives us access to the ghost and gluon spectral functions. The set-up is used for a systematic analytic evaluation of the constraints on generalised spectral representations in Yang-Mills theory that are most relevant for informed spectral reconstructions. We also provide numerical results for the coupled set of spectral functions for a large range of potential mass gaps of the gluon, and discuss the limitations and extensions of the present work.

  1. Self-consistent graviton spectral function in Lorentzian quantum gravity

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A self-consistent spectral renormalisation group computation yields a positive, normalizable graviton spectral function with a massless pole and a multi-graviton continuum decaying as 1/(λ² log³ λ²).

  2. Matter Spectral Functions from Quantum Gravity

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Under asymptotically safe quantum gravity, photon and scalar propagators acquire Källén-Lehmann spectral functions that are non-normalizable and change sign in the ultraviolet.

  3. Critical scaling for spectral functions

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A spectral renormalisation group computation extracts the anomalous dimension eta ~ 0.1 for 2+1-dimensional phi^4 theory in the scaling regime, within a truncated approximation.

  4. A beginner's guide to functional methods in particle physics

    hep-ph 2025-10 accept novelty 1.0 of 10

    A pedagogical review showing how Dyson-Schwinger, 3PI, and Bethe-Salpeter equations can be chained together to compute glueball masses in pure Yang-Mills theory, matching lattice QCD.
