We survey contemporary studies of hadrons and strongly interacting quarks using QCD's Dyson-Schwinger equations, addressing: aspects of confinement and dynamical chiral symmetry breaking; the hadron spectrum; hadron elastic and transition…
I propose to reformulate the gauge field theory as the perturbative deformation of a novel topological quantum field theory. It is shown that this reformulation leads to quark confinement in QCD$_4$. Similarly, the fractional charge…
This lecture note presents a self-contained introduction to the theory of a heavy quark-antiquark ($Q\bar{Q}$) system in terms of perturbative QCD. The lecture is intended for non-experts, such as graduate course students. The heavy…
An updated heavy quark-antiquark potential is constructed by matching the short-distance perturbative part to long-distance lattice QCD results at an intermediate r scale. The static potential and the order 1/m potential are both analyzed…

We use a hadron resonance gas model to calculate the quark-antiquark condensates for light (up and down) and strange quark flavors at finite temperatures and chemical potentials. At zero chemical potentials, we find that at the temperature…
We prove that the Fourier transform of the exponential $e^{-\b V(R)}$ of the {\bf static} interquark potential in QCD is positive. It has been shown by Eliott Lieb some time ago that this property allows in the same limit of static spin…
Master equations of the Lindblad type have recently been derived to describe the dynamics of quarkonium states in the quark-gluon plasma. Because their full resolution in three dimensions is very challenging, the equations are often reduced…
We present analytical methods for investigating the interaction of two heavy quarks in QCD_3 using the effective action approach. Our findings result in explicit expressions for the static potentials in QCD_3 for long and short distances.…
A phenomenological expression for the thermodynamic potential of gluons and quarks is constructed which incorporates the features of deconfinement and chiral symmetry restoration known from lattice simulations. The thermodynamic potential…
In the present work, the mass spectra of the bound states of heavy quarks b and c quarks and the Bc meson are studied within the frame work of non relativistic Schrodinger equation. First, we solve Schr\"odinger's equation with a general…
Within an effective field theory framework, we obtain an expression, with O(1/m^2) accuracy, for the energies of the gluonic excitations between heavy quarks, which holds beyond perturbation theory. For the singlet heavy quark--antiquark…
The correlation function between two Polyakov loops encodes the free-energy shift due to a pair of separated colour conjugated sources in the hot QCD medium. This is analyzed in terms of a novel K\"all\'en-Lehmann spectral representation…
In this paper, we investigate imaginary part of the potential for a moving quarkonia in plasma. In order to verify the validity of imaginary part of the potential we employ hyperscaling violation metric background. In QCD system the…
We study Dick quark-antiquark potential (up to a color factor) $V_D(r)={-\alpha_s \over r} + gf \sqrt{N_c \over {2(N_c-1)}} \ln[exp(2mr)-1]$ in the heavy meson sector. This potential emerges from an effective dilaton-gluon coupling inspired…
We review the existing weak-coupling results on the thermodynamic potential of deconfined QCD at small and large quark chemical potential and compare with results from lattice gauge theory as well as the exactly solvable case of large-N_f…
The crossover from hadronic to quark matter is understood to be both a deconfinement as well as a chiral symmetry restoring transition. Here, we study observables related to both aspects using lattice simulations: the Polyakov loop and its…
This paper applies the analytic forms of a recent non-perturbative, manifestly gauge- and Lorentz-invariant description (of the exchange of all possible virtual gluons between quarks ($Q$) and/or anti-quarks ($\bar{Q}$) in a quenched,…
We perform the first study about the heavy-heavy-light quark potential in lattice QCD and a potential model. We find that the inter-two-quark confining force is reduced by valence quark motional effects compared to the string tension.
We systematically compute the effective short-range potentials arising from second order QCD-diagrams related to bound states of quarks, antiquarks, and gluons. Our formalism relies on the assumption that the exchanged gluons are massless,…
