A coupled set of Schwinger-Dyson equations for the gluon and ghost propagators in the Yang-Mills vacuum as well as for the curvature of gauge orbit space is derived and solved in one-loop approximation. We find an infrared suppressed gluon propagator, an infrared singular ghost propagator and a almost linearly rising confinement potential.24 pages, revtex, 13 figuresHigh Energy Physics - TheoryHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyVariational solution of the Yang-Mills Schrödinger equation in Coulomb gaugetext
