The 2-dimensional U(1) gauge-Higgs model with a topological term is a simple example of a lattice field theory where the complex action problem comes from the topological term. We show that the model can be exactly rewritten in terms of…
We present a dual representation of the partition function of the charged scalar field in which the complex action problem at non-zero chemical potential is absent. In this dual representation Monte Carlo simulations are possible and we…
We derive an exact representation of the massless Schwinger model on the lattice in terms of dual variables which are configurations of loops, dimers and plaquette occupation numbers. When expressed with the dual variables the partition sum…
A $\theta$ term, which couples to topological charge, is added to the two-dimensional lattice CP^3 model and U(1) gauge theory. Monte Carlo simulations are performed and compared to strong-coupling character expansions. In certain…
We propose a scalable analog quantum simulator for quantum electrodynamics (QED) in two spatial dimensions. The setup for the U(1) lattice gauge field theory employs inter-species spin-changing collisions in an ultra-cold atomic mixture…
We explore two flavor scalar electrodynamics on the lattice, which has a complex phase problem at finite chemical potential. By rewriting the action in terms of dual variables this complex phase problem can be solved exactly. The dual…
In this letter we explore different representations of the SU(2) principal chiral model on the lattice. We couple chemical potentials to two of the conserved charges to induce finite density. This leads to a complex action such that the…
Lax representation in terms of $2\times 2$ matrices is constructed for a separable multiply--periodic system splitting on two tori. Hyperelliptic Kleinian functions and their reduction to elliptic functions are used.
Real-time lattice quantum electrodynamics (QED) provides a unique tool for simulating plasmas in the strong-field regime, where collective plasma scales are not well-separated from relativistic-quantum scales. As a toy model, we study…
Three-dimensional scalar electrodynamics, with a local U(1) gauge symmetry, is believed to be dual to a scalar theory with a global U(1) symmetry, near the phase transition point. The conjectured duality leads to definite predictions for…
We report on a result on quantum electrodynamics on a three dimensional Euclidean spacetime. The model is formulated on a toroidal lattice with unit volume and variable lattice spacing. The result is that the renormalized partition function…
We study quantum electrodynamics in a (2+1)-dimensional space-time with two flavors of dynamical fermions by numerical simulations on the lattice. We discretize the theory using both the compact and the noncompact formulations and analyze…
We derive dual representations for O(N) and CP(N-1) models on the lattice. In terms of the dual variables the partition sums have only real and positive contributions also at finite chemical potential. Thus the complex action problem of the…
We study abelian gauge-Higgs models on the lattice and consider gauge groups Z(3) and U(1). For both cases the partition sums are mapped exactly to a dual representation where the degrees of freedom are surfaces for the gauge fields and…
We present a quantum Monte Carlo algorithm for the simulation of general quantum and classical many-body models within a single unifying framework. The algorithm builds on a power series expansion of the quantum partition function in its…
Dynamical triangulations of four-dimensional Euclidean quantum gravity give rise to an interesting, numerically accessible model of quantum gravity. We give a simple introduction to the model and discuss two particularly important issues.…
The physical reasons in favour of a two dimensional topological model of quantum electrodynamics are discussed. It is shown that in accord with this model there is a new uncertainty relation for photon which is compatible with QED.
Quantum electrodynamics in a (2+1)-dimensional space-time has been object of studies both as effective theory for the pseudogap phase of high-T_c superconductors and for the theoretical investigation of mechanisms of confinement in presence…
We study interacting Majorana fermions in two dimensions as a low-energy effective model of a vortex lattice in two-dimensional time-reversal-invariant topological superconductors. For that purpose, we implement ab-initio quantum Monte…
We discuss simulation strategies for the massless lattice Schwinger model with a topological term and finite chemical potential. The simulation is done in a dual representation where the complex action problem is solved and the partition…
