Quark Model Perspectives on Pentaquark Exotics

Abstract

Expectations and predictions for pentaquark exotics based on the quark model perspective are presented. Recent quark model scenarios, and calculations performed in different realizations of the quark model approach, up to the end of March 2004, are also reviewed and discussed.
