Descripción
We describe the definitions of quark masses extracted fron the Vector and the Axial Vector Ward Identities. We discuss their renormalization on the lattice using perturbative and non-perturbative procedures. We report the results obtained from Lattice QCD simulations in the quenched approximation with the Wilson and the tree-level improved SW-Clover fermionic actions. We compare the results obtained with the two methods and we study the $O(a)$ dependence of the quark masses for both actions.
