Abstract

We study gauge dependence of the recently suggested definition of the singlet and adjoint potentials in SU(2) lattice gauge theory. We find that in the (time local) maximal tree axial gauge the singlet potential obtained from the gauge dependent correlator Tr L(x)L† (y) differs from that computed in the Coulomb gauge. In the generalized Coulomb gauge we find the range of the parameter values in which the singlet potential differs from that in the Coulomb gauge.
