The $A^2$ asymmetry and propagators in lattice $SU(2)$ gluodynamics at $T>T_c$

We study numerically the chromoelectric-chromomagnetic asymmetry of the dimension two $A^2$ gluon condensate as well as the transverse and longitudinal gluon propagators at $T>T_c$ in the Landau-gauge $SU(2)$ lattice gauge theory with a particular emphasis on finite-volume effects. We show that previously found so called symmetric point at which asymmetry changes sign is an artifact of the finite volume effects. We find that with increasing temperature the asymmetry decreases approaching zero value from above in agreement with perturbative result. Instead of the asymmetry we suggest the ratio of the transverse to longitudinal propagator taken at zero momentum as an indicator of the boundary of the postconfinement domain and find it at $T \simeq 1.7 T_c$.
