MLMC: Machine Learning Monte Carlo for Lattice Gauge Theory

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2023-12-19 v2

Abstract

We present a trainable framework for efficiently generating gauge configurations, and discuss ongoing work in this direction. In particular, we consider the problem of sampling configurations from a 4D SU(3)SU(3) lattice gauge theory, and consider a generalized leapfrog integrator in the molecular dynamics update that can be trained to improve sampling efficiency. Code is available online at https://github.com/saforem2/l2hmc-qcd.
