[Theory-seminars] Theory seminar next week

[Astrid Hiller Blin]

Dear all,

Here is the information about next week's theory seminar:

*Theory seminar*
Monday November 30, 9:00 AM

*Gurtej Kanwar* (MIT) will talk about "Ensemble generation for lattice QFT
using machine learning".

*Abstract:*

Monte Carlo sampling is a powerful method to compute observables in quantum
field theories regularized on a discrete spacetime lattice (LQFT), which is
necessary for example to study the non-perturbative behavior of QCD in the
low-energy regime. The cost of drawing independent samples is a major
bottleneck in such studies. I discuss our recent work demonstrating that
generative machine-learning models can be used to perform Monte Carlo
sampling and produce unbiased estimates of observables in LQFT. This work
lays out a framework for exactly encoding translational and gauge
symmetries in these models, making training practically viable.
