We study the transfer of color between a heavy quark pair and an unpaired heavy quark or antiquark moving at a nonrelativistic velocity with respect to the pair. We find that the open heavy quark or antiquark can catalyze the transformation…
QCD confines quarks in all representations. From lattice calculations and fat center vortices model, we discuss that the coefficient of the linear term in the potential is proportional to both casimir scaling and the number of fundamental…
We calculate the screening and anti-screening contributions to the inter-quark potential in 2+1 dimensions, which is relevant to the high temperature limit of QCD. We demonstrate that the relative strength of screening to anti-screening…

In addition to the conventional $q\bar{q}$ and $qqq$ bound states of quarks $q$, exotic hadrons, such as the four-quark $q\bar{q}q\bar{q}$ and the five-quark $qqqq\bar{q}$ bound states, can be constructed by assuming colour confinement in…
A brief review is given of the sign problem in finite density lattice QCD and various attempts to overcome it. To date there is still no solution to this problem which would work for realistic QCD. The main focus then is on the deconfined…
We study the transitions between the different color states of a static quark-antiquark pair, singlet and octet, in a thermal medium. This is done non-perturbatively exploiting the infinite mass limit of QCD. This study is interesting…
