Can Stochastic Quantization Evade the Sign Problem? The Relativistic Bose Gas at Finite Chemical Potential

Journal Article Aarts, Gert - Physical Review Letters

A nonperturbative study of field theories with a complex action, such as QCD at finite baryon density, is difficult due to the sign problem. We show that the relativistic Bose gas at finite chemical potential has a sign and 'silver blaze' problem, similar to QCD. We then apply stochastic quantization and complex Langevin dynamics to study this theory with nonperturbative lattice simulations. Independence of chemical potential at small and a transition to a condensed phase at large chemical potential are found. Lattices of size N{sup 4}, with N=4, 6, 8, 10, are used. We show that the sign problem ismore »« less

Finite-density Monte Carlo calculations on sign-optimized manifolds

Journal Article Alexandru, Andrei ; Bedaque, Paulo F. ; Lamm, Henry ; ... - Physical Review. D.

We present a general technique for addressing sign problems that arise in Monte Carlo simulations of field theories. This method deforms the domain of the path integral to a manifold in complex field space that maximizes the average sign (therefore reducing the sign problem) within a parametrized family of manifolds. We presents results for the 1 + 1 dimensional Thirring model with Wilson fermions on lattice sizes up to 40 × 10. This method reaches higher μ than previous techniques while substantially decreasing the computational time required.

Fermions at Finite Density in $2 + 1$ Dimensions with Sign-Optimized Manifolds

Journal Article Alexandru, Andrei ; Bedaque, Paulo F. ; Lamm, Henry ; ... - Physical Review Letters

We present Monte Carlo calculations of the thermodynamics of the (2 + 1)-dimensional Thirring model at finite density. We bypass the sign problem by deforming the domain of integration of the path integral into complex space in such a way as to maximize the average sign within a parameterized family of manifolds. We present results for lattice sizes up to 10³ and we find that at high densities and/or temperatures the chiral condensate is abruptly reduced.

Solution of 3D inverse scattering problems by combined inverse equivalent current and finite element methods

Journal Article Kılıç, Emre ; Eibert, Thomas F. - Journal of Computational Physics

An approach combining boundary integral and finite element methods is introduced for the solution of three-dimensional inverse electromagnetic medium scattering problems. Based on the equivalence principle, unknown equivalent electric and magnetic surface current densities on a closed surface are utilized to decompose the inverse medium problem into two parts: a linear radiation problem and a nonlinear cavity problem. The first problem is formulated by a boundary integral equation, the computational burden of which is reduced by employing the multilevel fast multipole method (MLFMM). Reconstructed Cauchy data on the surface allows the utilization of the Lorentz reciprocity and the Poynting's theorems.more »« less

Discontinouous finite element equivalent to nonstandard S{sub N} methods for slab geometry transport problems

Journal Article Barros, R C - Transactions of the American Nuclear Society

We describe the equivalence of discontinuous finite element methods and nonstandard discrete ordinates (S{sub N}) methods for the angular discretization of the Boltzmann equation in slab geometry. To apply the finite element methods to the angular variable {mu}, we first divide the angular domain (-1 {le} {mu} {le} + 1) into a number of contiguous cells, called finite elements. The angular flux is then expanded in a finite set of basis functions defined on each individual cell. In this paper, the basis functions are the Legendre polynomials. It is well known that the conventional Gauss-Legendre S{sub N} equations in slabmore »« less
