Abstract
Complete gauge fixing beyond perturbation theory in non-Abelian gauge theories is a nontrivial problem. This is particularly evident in covariant gauges, where the Gribov-Singer ambiguity gives an explicit formulation of the problem. In practice, this is a problem if gauge-dependent quantities between different methods, especially lattice and continuum methods, should be compared: Only when treating the Gribov-Singer ambiguity in the same way is the comparison meaningful. To provide a better basis for such a comparison the structure of the first Gribov region in Landau gauge, a subset of all possible gauge copies satisfying the perturbative Landau gauge condition, will be investigated. To this end, lattice gauge theory will be used to investigate a two-dimensional projection of the region for SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in two, three, and four dimensions for a wide range of volumes and discretizations.
