Coherent State path-integral simulation of many particle systems

Abstract

The coherent state path integral formulation of certain many particle systems allows for their non perturbative study by the techniques of lattice field theory. In this paper we exploit this strategy by simulating the explicit example of the diffusion controlled reaction $A+A\to 0$. Our results are consistent with some renormalization group-based predictions thus clarifying the continuum limit of the action of the problem.
