Abstract: The gluon propagator is computed in large asymmetric lattices, accessing momenta around 100 MeV and smaller. Our study tries to check the compatibility of the recent solutions of the gluon-ghost Dyson-Schwinger equations with lattice results. In particular the exponent $\kappa$, which characterizes the solutions for the infrared, is measured. Results favours a vanishing zero momentum gluon propagator. We also report on the compatibility of various functional forms used to fit the Dyson-Schwinger solution for the full range of momenta and the lattice gluon propagator.
