Abstract
Gribov copies of the vacuum in two dimensional compact U (1) lattice g auge models are constructed. On the basis of this a gauge fixing algor ithm is developped, wich finds the minimum of the sum of link field sq uares. Numerical experience in a two dimensional Higgs model with fixe d length scalar field is reported and the extension to three and four dimensional U(1) and four dimensional SU(2) gauge theories is briefly discussed.
