On the Yang-Mills wave functional in Coulomb gauge
  We investigate the dependence of the Yang-Mills wave functional in Coulomb gauge on the Faddeev-Popov determinant. We use a Gaussian wave functional multiplied by an arbitrary power of the Faddeev-Popov determinant. We show, that within the resummation of one-loop diagrams the stationary vacuum energy is independent of the power of the Faddeev-Popov determinant and, furthermore, the wave functional becomes field-independent in the infrared, describing a stochastic vacuum. Our investigations show, that the infrared limit is rather robust against details of the variational ans\"atze for the Yang-Mills wave functional. The infrared limit is exclusively determined by the divergence of the Faddeev-Popov determinant at the Gribov horizon.
