  We report on the work presented in Phys. Lett. B712 (2012) 97, where a new
one-parameter family of Landau gauges has been proposed for Yang-Mills
theories, inspired by an analogy with disordered systems in condensed matter
physics. This is based on a particular average over Gribov copies which avoids
the Neuberger zero problem of the standard Fadeev-Popov construction. The
proposed gauge fixing can be formulated as a local renormalizable field theory
in four dimensions and is well-suited for analytical calculations. A remarkable
feature is that, for what concerns the calculation of ghost and gauge field
correlators, the gauged-fixed action is perturbatively equivalent to a simple
massive extension of the Faddeev-Popov action. The renormalization group flow
of the theory admits infrared safe trajectories, with no Landau pole. The
one-loop calculations of Yang-Mills two-point correlators show remarkable
agreement with lattice simulations all the way to the deep infrared.
