New Numerical Methods for Iterative or Perturbative Solution of Quantum Field Theory

A new computational idea for continuum quantum field theories is outlined. This approach is based on the lattice source Galerkin methods developed by Garcia, Guralnik and Lawson. The method has many

Numerical Field Theory on the Continuum

An approach to calculating approximate solutions to the continuum Schwinger-Dyson equations is outlined, with examples for φ4 in D=1. This approach is based on the source Galerkin methods developed

Numerical Quantum Field Theory Using the Source Galerkin Method

The Source Galerkin method has little in common with the Monte Carlo methods, but appears to have strengths which will allow its use for problems (such as scattering predictions) that are not readily accessible to conventional methods with the currently available computers.

Boundary Conditions for Schwinger-Dyson Equations and Vacuum Selection

When attempting to solve a field theory or matrix model by using Schwinger-Dyson equations, one must address the problem that these equations do not possess a unique solution. This problem came to

Fast evaluation of Feynman diagrams

We develop a new representation for the integrals associated with Feynman diagrams. This leads directly to a novel method for the numerical evaluation of these integrals, which avoids the use of

Sinc function representation and three-loop master diagrams

We test the Sinc function representation, a novel method for numerically evaluating Feynman diagrams, by using it to evaluate the three-loop master diagrams. Analytical results have been obtained for

Experiments with a Gauge Invariant Ising System

Using Monte Carlo techniques, we evaluate the path integral for the four-dimensional lattice gauge theory with a Z/sub 2/ gauge group. The system exhibits a first-order transition. This is contrary

Lattice Gauge Theories And Monte Carlo Simulations

This volume is the most up-to-date review on Lattice Gauge Theories and Monte Carlo Simulations. It consists of two parts. Part one is an introductory lecture on the lattice gauge theories in

Nonunique solution to the Schwinger-Dyson equations.

It is shown that while the Schwinger-Dyson equations do determine the weak-coupling perturbation expansions of the Green's functions, the solution to the SchwINGER- Dyson equations is not unique and therefore the nonperturbative content of theGreen's functions remains undetermined.

Computational Galerkin Methods

For many of the examples given in chapter 1, acceptable accuracy, and often very high accuracy, could be achieved with less than five terms in the trial solution. The advent of computers has brought
