Towards background field independence within the Gribov horizon

Igor F. Justo, Antonio D. Pereira, Rodrigo F. Sobreiro

We introduce a background gauge akin to the Landau-DeWitt gauge but deformed by the presence of a gauge parameter for the quantization of Euclidean Yang-Mills theories. In the limi…
