Scaling, asymptotic scaling and improved perturbation theory

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

Contrary to recent claims, we show that lattice perturbation theory reproduces quite accurately Monte Carlo results of short-distance quantities. We argue that the present numerical situation strongly suggests the occurrence of a (zero temperature) deconfining transition in QCD at non-zero lattice coupling.
