Description

Questions about quantum field theories at non-zero chemical potential and/or real-time correlators are often impossible to investigate numerically due to the sign problem. A possible solution to this problem is to deform the integration domain for the path integral in the complex plane. Sampling configurations on these manifolds is challenging. In this talk I will discuss some of these problems, present solutions we have found and the directions we are currently pursuing.
