Lattice Field Theory with the Sign Problem and the Maximum Entropy Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
Although numerical simulation in lattice field theory is one of the most effective tools to study non-perturbative properties of field theories, it faces serious obstacles coming from the sign problem in some theories such as finite density QCD and lattice field theory with the θ term. We reconsider this problem from the point of view of the maximum entropy method.

Sign problem and MEM in lattice field theory with the θ term
Lattice field theory with a θ term suffers from the sign problem. The sign problem appears as flattening of the free energy. As an alternative way to the conventional method, the Fourier transform method (FTM), we apply the maximum entropy method (MEM) to Monte Carlo data of the CP model with the θ term. For the data without flattening, we obtain the most probable images of the partition functi...
متن کاملSign Problem and Mem * †
The sign problem is notorious in Monte Carlo simulations of lattice QCD with the finite density, lattice field theory (LFT) with a θ term and quantum spin models. In this report, to deal with the sign problem, we apply the maximum entropy method (MEM) to LFT with the θ term and investigate to what extent the MEM is applicable to this issue. Based on this study, we also make a brief comment abou...

We study the sign problem in lattice field theory with a θ term. We apply the maximum entropy method (MEM) to flattening phenomenon of the free energy density f(θ), which originates from the sign problem. In our previous paper, we applied the MEM by employing the Gaussian topological charge distribution P (Q) as mock data. In the present paper, we consider models in which ‘true’ flattening of f...

متن کاملNatural Convection and Entropy Generation in Γ-Shaped Enclosure Using Lattice Boltzmann Method
This work presents a numerical analysis of entropy generation in Γ-Shaped enclosure that was submitted to the natural convection process using a simple thermal lattice Boltzmann method (TLBM) with the Boussinesq approximation. A 2D thermal lattice Boltzmann method with 9 velocities, D2Q9, is used to solve the thermal flow problem. The simulations are performed at a constant Prandtl number (Pr ...
