We investigate instability and reversibility within Hybrid Monte Carlo simulations using a non-perturbatively improved Wilson action. We demonstrate the onset of instability as tolerance parameters and molecular dynamics step sizes are…

We investigate the performance of the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm, the standard algorithm used for lattice QCD simulations involving fermions, in updating non-trivial global topological structures. We find that the hybrid Monte Carlo…

The Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm currently is the favorite scheme to simulate quantum chromodynamics including dynamical fermions. In this talk-which is intended for a non-expert audience--I want to bring together methodical and…

The theoretical justification of the Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm depends upon the molecular dynamics trajectories within it being exactly reversible. If computations were carried out with exact arithmetic then it would be easy to ensure…

This is the write-up of three lectures on algorithms for dynamical fermions that were given at the ILFTN workshop 'Perspectives in Lattice QCD' in Nara during November 2005. The first lecture is on the fundamentals of Markov Chain Monte…

We show how the integrators used for the molecular dynamics step of the Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm can be further improved. These integrators not only approximately conserve some Hamiltonian $H$ but conserve exactly a nearby shadow…

The standard hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm uses the second order integrator at the molecular dynamics step. This choice of the integrator is not always the best. Using the Wilson fermion action, we study the performance of the hybrid Monte…

A comprehensive linear stability analysis of force-gradient integrators and their Hessian-free variants is carried out by investigating the harmonic oscillator as a test equation. The analysis reveals that the linear stability of…

We study efficiency of higher order integrator schemes for the hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm. Numerical tests are performed for Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD) with two flavors of Wilson fermions. We compare 2nd, 4th and 6th order…

This review describes the multiboson algorithm for Monte Carlo simulations of lattice QCD, including its static and dynamical aspects, and presents a comparison with Hybrid Monte Carlo.

We compare the Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) and the Kramers equation algorithms for simulations of QCD with two flavors of dynamical Wilson fermions and gauge group $SU(2)$. The results for the performance of both algorithms are obtained on…

We show how to improve the molecular dynamics step of Hybrid Monte Carlo, both by tuning the integrator using Poisson brackets measurements and by the use of force gradient integrators. We present results for moderate lattice sizes.

It is well-known that molecular dynamics integrators, which are used for lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD), suffer from instabilities and possess a rather low order of the accuracy. Hence, it is highly desirable to construct a new class…

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…

A scheme for separating the high- and low-frequency molecular dynamics modes in Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) simulations of gauge theories with dynamical fermions is presented. The algorithm is tested in the Schwinger model with Wilson…

Perturbative expansions of several small Wilson loops are computed through next-to-next-to-leading order in unquenched lattice QCD, from Monte Carlo simulations at weak couplings. This approach provides a much simpler alternative to…
