In Gribov's scenario in Coulomb gauge, confinement of color charge is due to a long-range instantaneous color-Coulomb potential V(R). This may be determined numerically from the instantaneous part of the gluon propagator D_{44, inst} = V(R)…
We present numerical results in SU(2) lattice gauge theory for the instantaneous part of the gluon propagator in Coulomb gauge D_{44, inst} = V_{coul}(R) \delta(t). Data are taken on lattice volumes 24^4 and 28^4 for 7 values of beta in the…

The Yang-Mills Schr\"odinger equation is variationally solved in Coulomb gauge for the vacuum sector using a trial wave functional, which is strongly peaked at the Gribov horizon. We find the absence of gluons in the infrared and also a…
