Abstract
The quark self-energy in massless QCD is studied in the approximation that both the quark-gluon vertex and the gluon propagator remain bare. It is shown that chiral invariance is not spontaneously broken at a critical coupling >0, unless both infrared and ultraviolet cutoffs are introduced.
