Snowmass White Paper: Hamiltonian Truncation
Abstract
Strongly-coupled Quantum Field Theories (QFTs) are ubiquitous in high energy physics and many-body physics, yet our ability to do precise computations in such systems remains limited. Hamiltonian Truncation is a method for doing nonperturbative computations of real-time evolution in strongly coupled QFT in the continuum limit, and works by numerically solving the Schrodinger equation in a truncated subspace of the full Hilbert space. Recent advances in understanding this method have opened the door to progress in a range of applications, from gauge theories in d 2 dimensions to relativistic nonequilibrium physics.
