abstract

We review the exotic states, such as the $X$, $Y$, $Z$, $T$ and $P$ states, and present their possible assignments based on the QCD sum rules. We present many predictions which can be confronted to the experimental data in the future to diagnose the exotic states. Furthermore, we also mention other theoretical methods.
