I call attention to the possibility that QCD bound states (hadrons) could be derived using rigorous Hamiltonian, perturbative methods. Solving Gauss' law for $A^0$ with a non-vanishing boundary condition at spatial infinity gives an…
The treatment of confining interactions in non-relativistic three-quark systems is revised. Usually in the Faddeev equations the Faddeev components are coupled by the total potential. In the new treatment the Faddeev components are coupled…
We solve the Faddeev bound-state equations for three particles with simple two-body nonlocal, separable potentials that yield a scattering length twice as large as a positive effective range, as indicated by some lattice QCD simulations.…
I present some new results regarding confinement as it appears in Coulomb gauge. It is found that: i) a recently proposed Yang-Mills vacuum wavefunctional in temporal gauge and 2+1 dimensions yields a Coulomb-gauge ghost propagator and…
We study the static three-quark (3Q) potential for more than 300 different patterns of 3Q systems with high statistics, i.e., 1000-2000 gauge configurations, in SU(3) lattice QCD at the quenched level. For all the distances, the 3Q…
In a functional approach to QCD the infrared behaviour of Landau gauge Green functions is investigated. It can be proven that the ghost Dyson-Schwinger equation implies the Gribov-Zwanziger horizon condition. Its relation to the Kugo-Ojima…
In SU(3) lattice QCD, we perform the detailed study for the ground-state three-quark (3Q) potential $V_{\rm 3Q}^{\rm g.s.}$ and the 1st excited-state 3Q potential $V_{\rm 3Q}^{\rm e.s.}$, i.e., the energies of the ground state and the 1st…
We show that the confining property of the one-gluon propagator, in Coulomb gauge, is linked to the unbroken realization of a remnant gauge symmetry which exists in this gauge. An order parameter for the remnant gauge symmetry is…

In this paper, we determine at weak coupling the non-relativistic $n$-body Schr\"{o}dinger equation that describes the low-lying color singlet bound states of two dimensional adjoint $QCD$ with heavy quarks. In the case of three adjoint…
We compare the physical potential $V_D(R)$ of an external quark-antiquark pair in the representation $D$ of SU(N), to the color-Coulomb potential $V_{\rm coul}(R)$ which is the instantaneous part of the 44-component of the gluon propagator…
We discuss a confining model for quark-antiquark system with a new color $SU_3$ gauge symmetry. New gauge transformations involve non-integrable phase factors and lead to the fourth-order gauge field equations and a linear potential. The…
We make the case that the Coulomb- plus linear quark confinement potential predicted by lattice QCD is an approximation to the exactly solvable trigonometric Rosen-Morse potential that has the property to interpolate between the Coulomb-…

We provide a study of quantum chromodynamics with the technique of Dyson-Schwinger equations in differential form. In this way, we are able to approach the non-perturbative limit and recover, with some approximations, the 't Hooft limit of…
We introduced here the study of a QCD based on a complex group. Our aim is to show that a gauge theory with a complex symmetry develops some of the features required for the description of a confined phase. This theory leads to gluons with…
In this Chapter QCD interactions between a quark and an anti-quark are discussed. In the heavy quark limit these potentials can be related to quarkonia and $1/m$ corrections can be systematically determined. Excitations of the ground state…
