The Refined Gribov-Zwanziger framework takes into account the existence of equivalent gauge field configurations in the gauge-fixing quantization procedure of Euclidean Yang-Mills theories. Recently, this setup was extended to the family of…
We present the results of a study of the gauge dependence of spacetime perturbations. In particular, we consider gauge invariance in general, we give a generating formula for gauge transformations to an arbitrary order n, and explicit…
The standard Faddeev Popov gauge fixing procedure is put on solid grounds by taking into account a topological factor which corrects for the number of Gribov copies within the first Gribov horizon. Zwanziger's stochastic approach to gauge…
We describe how an SU(N) chiral gauge theory can be put on the lattice using non-perturbative gauge fixing. In particular, we explain how the Gribov problem is dealt with. Our construction is local, avoids doublers, and weak-coupling…
The Gribov problem in the presence of a background field is analyzed: in particular, we study the Gribov copies equation in the Landau-De Witt gauge as well as the semi-classical Gribov gap equation. As background field, we choose the…
Gribov ambiguity is a problem that arises when we try to single out the physical gauge degree of freedom in non-Abelian gauge theory by imposing the covariant gauge constraint. Unfortunately, the solution of the gauge constraint is not…
The problem of consistent definition of the quantum corrected gravitational field is considered in the framework of the $S$-matrix method. Gauge dependence of the one-particle-reducible part of the two-scalar-particle scattering amplitude,…
In this letter we explore the dependence on the gauge fixing condition of several quantities in the U(1) Higgs model at finite temperature and chemical potential. We compute the effective potential at the one loop level, using a gauge…
We discuss some paradoxes arising due to the gauge-dependence of canonical variables in mechanics.
I comment on possible relations of Gribov's ideas on mechanism of confinement with some phenomena in QCD and in supersymmetric gauge theories.
The role of the measurement process in resolving the gauge ambiguity of the effective gravitational potential is reexamined. The motion of a classical point-like particle in the field of an arbitrary linear source, and in the field of…
A time dependent generalization of the Ginzburg -Landau Lagrangian is proposed. It contains two terms determining the time dependence and the four arbitrary scalar functions. Relevant equations, which coincide with equations following from…
We consider finite-temperature $SU(2)$ gauge theory in the continuum formulation. Choosing the Landau gauge, the existing gauge copies are taken into account by means of the Gribov-Zwanziger quantization scheme, which entails the…
We pursue the study of SU(2) Euclidean Yang-Mills theory in the maximal Abelian gauge by taking into account the effects of the Gribov horizon. The Gribov approximation, previously introduced in [1], is improved through the introduction of…
A consistent quantum treatment of general gauge theories with an arbitrary gauge-fixing in the presence of soft breaking of the BRST symmetry in the field-antifield formalism is developed. It is based on a gauged (involving a…
An equivalent formulation of the Gribov-Zwanziger theory accounting for the gauge fixing ambiguity in the Landau gauge is presented. The resulting action is constrained by a Slavnov-Taylor identity stemming from a nilpotent exact BRST…
We consider in detail the problem of gauge dependence that exists in relativistic perturbation theory, going beyond the linear approximation and treating second and higher order perturbations. We first derive some mathematical results…
Complete gauge-fixing beyond perturbation theory in non-Abelian gauge theories is a non-trivial problem. This is particularly evident in covariant gauges, where the Gribov-Singer ambiguity gives an explicit formulation of the problem. In…
On the example of topologically massive gauge field theory we find the origin of possible inconsistency of working with gauge fixing terms (together with relevant ghost sector)
We review our lattice results concerning the Gribov-Zwanziger confinement mechanism in Coulomb gauge. In particular, we verify the validity of Gribov's IR divergence condition for the Coulomb ghost form factor. We also show how the quark…
