We introduce a new Monte Carlo method for pure gauge theories. It is not intended for use with dynamical fermions. It belongs to the class of Local Hybrid Monte Carlo (LHMC) algorithms, which make use of the locality of the action by…
Standard sampling algorithms for lattice QCD suffer from topology freezing (or critical slowing down) when approaching the continuum limit, thus leading to poor sampling of the distinct topological sectors. I will present a modified…
We propose a new method for simulating lattice gauge theories in the presence of fermions. The method combines flow-based generative models for local gauge field updates and hierarchical updates of the factorized fermion determinant. The…
A Markov chain update scheme using a machine-learned flow-based generative model is proposed for Monte Carlo sampling in lattice field theories. The generative model may be optimized (trained) to produce samples from a distribution…
Sampling lattice field theories near criticality is severely hindered by critical slowing down, which makes standard Markov chain methods increasingly inefficient at large lattice volumes. We introduce a multiscale generative sampler,…
This review gives an overview on the research of algorithms for dynamical fermions used in large scale lattice QCD simulations. First a short overview on the state-of-the-art of ensemble generation at the physical point is given. Followed…
The recent introduction of machine learning techniques, especially normalizing flows, for the sampling of lattice gauge theories has shed some hope on improving the sampling efficiency of the traditional HMC algorithm. Naive use of…
In modern lattice simulations, conventional update algorithms do not allow for tunneling between topological sectors at fine lattice spacings. We compare the viability of multiple less commonly used algorithms (metadynamics, instanton…
At fine lattice spacings, lattice simulations are plagued by slow (topological) modes that give rise to large autocorrelation times. These, in turn, lead to statistical and systematic errors that are difficult to estimate. We study the…
Large N gauge theories with adjoint matter can be numerically studied using lattice techniques. Eguchi-Kawai reductions holds for this theory and one can reduce the lattice model to a single site. Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm can be used to…
At fine lattice spacings, Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations of QCD and other gauge theories with or without fermions are plagued by slow modes that give rise to large autocorrelation times. This can lead to simulation runs that are…

We propose a formally valid machine-learning-assisted global proposal mechanism for Monte Carlo sampling in lattice gauge theory. The construction is based on a coupling-flow update on the SU(2) lattice-link manifold, in which active links…
This work presents gauge-equivariant architectures for flow-based sampling in fermionic lattice field theories using pseudofermions as stochastic estimators for the fermionic determinant. This is the default approach in state-of-the-art…
The Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm for the simulation of QCD with dynamical staggered fermions is compared with Kramers equation algorithm. We find substantially different autocorrelation times for local and nonlocal observables. The…
In theories with topological sectors, such as lattice QCD and four-dimensional SU(N) gauge theories with periodic boundary conditions, conventional update algorithms suffer from topological freezing due to large action barriers separating…
The simulation of real-time dynamics in lattice gauge theories is particularly hard for classical computing due to the exponential scaling of the required resources. On the other hand, quantum algorithms can potentially perform the same…
The advantages of using Multi-Step corrections for simulations of lattice gauge theories with dynamical fermions will be discussed. This technique is suited for algorithms based on the Multi-Boson representation of the dynamical fermions as…
We consider two-flavor QCD in the lattice regularization with improved Wilson fermions. In this formulation chiral symmetry is explicitly broken at order a and hence the isovector axial currents require improvement as well as a finite…
Gauge fixing is an essential step in lattice QCD calculations, particularly for studying gauge-dependent observables. Traditional iterative algorithms are computationally expensive and often suffer from critical slowing down and scaling…
