We present lattice simulations of nonequilibrium quantum fields in Minkowskian space-time. Starting from a non-thermal initial state, the real-time quantum ensemble in 3+1 dimensions is constructed by a stochastic process in an additional (5th) ``Langevin-time''. For the example of a self-interacting scalar field we show how to resolve apparent unstable Langevin dynamics, and compare our quantum results with those obtained in classical field theory. Such a direct simulation method is crucial for our understanding of collision experiments of heavy nuclei or other nonequilibrium phenomena in strongly coupled quantum many-body systems.

  1. Lefschetz thimble-inspired weight regularizations for complex Langevin simulations

    hep-lat 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A single compact Lefschetz thimble restores correct complex Langevin convergence, and a Dyson-Schwinger bias correction recovers the original expectation values.

  2. The Role of Integration Cycles in Complex Langevin Simulations

    hep-lat 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Complex Langevin results in one- and two-dimensional toy models match a linear combination of integration cycles when boundary terms vanish, and the kernel choice controls which cycles contribute.

  3. Thermodynamic Diagnostics for Complex Langevin Simulations: The Role of Configurational Temperature

    hep-lat 2025-09 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Configurational temperature from action gradients and Hessians offers a sensitive new correctness diagnostic for complex Langevin simulations, reproducing input temperature to 0.2-3% in 1D PT-symmetric models.
