We investigate the real-time dynamics of U(1) and SU(N) gauge theories coupled to fermions on a lattice. While real-time lattice gauge theory is not amenable to standard importance sampling techniques, for a large class of time-dependent…

Due to selection rules, new particles are sometimes discovered/predicted to be produced in pairs. In the current search for SUSY particles this will occur if R-parity is conserved. In local relativistic field theory, there can be identical…
