We present a lattice gauge-fixing action $S_{gf}$ with the following properties: (a) $S_{gf}$ is proportional to the trace of $(\sum_\mu \partial_\mu A_\mu)^2$, plus irrelevant terms of dimension six and higher; (b) $S_{gf}$ has a unique…

Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) at finite density is most often formulated on the lattice as a grand canonical ensemble. Since lattice QCD has a complex action problem at finite baryo-chemical potential ($\mu_B$), its results at finite density…
