The Hybrid Monte Carlo Algorithm for Quantum Chromodynamics
Abstract
The Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm currently is the favorite scheme to simulate quantum chromodynamics including dynamical fermions. In this talk-which is intended for a non-expert audience--I want to bring together methodical and practical aspects of the HMC for full QCD simulations. I will comment on its merits and shortcomings, touch recent improvements and try to forecast its efficiency and r\ole in future full QCD simulations.
