Reconstruction of the \beta-function for \phi^4 theory, attempted previously by summation of perturbation series, leads to asymptotics \beta(g)=\beta_\infty g^\alpha at g\to\infty, where \alpha\approx 1 for space dimensions d=2,3,4. The…

Monte Carlo study of the Schwinger model (quantum electrodynamics in one spatial dimension) with a topological $\theta$ term is very difficult due to the sign problem in the conventional lattice formulation. In this paper, we point out that…
In quantum field theories at finite temperature spectral functions describe how particle systems behave in the presence of a thermal medium. Although data from lattice simulations can in principle be used to determine spectral function…
It has long been understood that the inclusion of temperature in the perturbative treatment of quantum field theories leads to complications that are not present at zero temperature. In these proceedings we report on the non-perturbative…
Interacting bosons in optical lattices directly expose quantum phases in a clean, highly controllable environment. This requires engineering systems with very low entropies, but the resulting temperature--interaction ratios $T/U$ of present…
