Abstract
In lattice pure gauge theory we study numerically the dependence of the ghost propagator on the choice of Gribov copies in the Lorentz (or Landau) gauge. We find that the effect of Gribov copies is essential in the scaling window region; however, it tends to decrease with increasing β. On the other hand, we find that at larger β values very strong fluctuations appear which can make problematic the calculation of the ghost propagator.
