Abstract
The imposition of a particular gauge condition in a non-Abelian gauge theory may lead to large-r nonuniformities in an amplitude expansion when used in the construction of an approximate solution of the field equations of the theory. We show that for both the Yang-Mills theory and general relativity it is always possible to find a class of gauge conditions that do not suffer from this defect and at the same time lead to solvable equations in each order of the approximation employed. We further show how one can construct such gauge conditions by a method similar to Lighthill's method of strained coordinates. An example of such a construction is given for the Yang-Mills theory.
