Numerical Study of the Ghost-Ghost-Gluon Vertex on the Lattice
  It is well known that, in Landau gauge, the renormalization function of the ghost-ghost-gluon vertex \widetilde{Z}_1(p^2) is finite and constant, at least to all orders of perturbation theory. On the other hand, a direct non-perturbative verification of this result using numerical simulations of lattice QCD is still missing. Here we present a preliminary numerical study of the ghost-ghost-gluon vertex and of its corresponding renormalization function using Monte Carlo simulations in SU(2) lattice Landau gauge. Data were obtained in 4 dimensions for lattice couplings beta = 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 and lattice sides N = 4, 8, 16.
