Abstract

We apply an improved renormalization group analysis for pure Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions in the Landau gauge and O(N) nonlinear sigma model in two dimensions. We find a pole in the gluon two-point function at one-loop order, which is generated nonperturbatively. In Yang-Mills theory this may correspond to the expectation value of a gauge invariant operator and emerges as MP/Λ MS ≃ 0.81, where Λ MS is the MS scale. The improved perturbation theory formulated by Gell-Mann and Low 1) is a theoretical framework with which, using the ideas of the renormalization group with the results of perturbation theory to a given order, one can determine something about the next order of perturbation theory. Employing the same type of philosophy, variational
