Path Integrals in Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics
arXiv:0710.4103 · doi:10.1142/9789812837271_0050
Abstract
I discuss the use of path integrals to study strong-interaction physics from first principles. The underlying theory is cast into path integrals which are evaluated numerically using Monte Carlo methods on a space-time lattice. Examples are given on progress related to nuclear physics.
