We present a new parametrization of a SU(3) fixed point (FP) gauge action using smeared ("fat") gauge links. We report on the scaling behaviour of the FP action on coarse lattices by means of the static quark-antiquark potential, the…
Lattice gauge theories are considered with a partial axial gauge fixing along one direction only. This leaves a residual gauge symmetry that is still local in three directions but now global in one. It is found that this $N^{d-1}$ fold…
A continuum formulation of gauge-fixing resolving the Gribov-Singer ambiguity remains a challenge. Finding a Lagrangian formulation of operational resolutions in numerical lattice calculations, like minimal Landau gauge, would be one…

Straight foreward lattice descriptions of chiral fermions lead to actions that break gauge invariance. I describe a method to make such actions gauge invariant (up to global gauge transformations) with the aid of gauge fixing. To make this…
We analyze how gauge fixing, which is required by any practical continuum approach to gauge systems, can interfere with the physical symmetries of such systems. In principle, the gauge fixing procedure, which deals with the (unphysical)…
