Simulations with Complex Measures

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

Towards a solution to the sign problem in the simulations of systems having indefinite or complex-valued measures, we propose a new approach which yields statistical errors smaller than the crude Monte Carlo using absolute values of the original measures. The 1D complex-coupling Ising model is employed as an illustration.
