Feynman checkers: lattice quantum field theory with real time
Analysis and Mathematical Physics. 2024. Vol. 14. Article 38.
We present a new completely elementary model that describes the creation, annihilation, and motion of non-interacting electrons and positrons along a line. It is a modification of the model known under the names
Feynman checkers or one-dimensional quantum walk. It can be viewed as a six-vertex model with certain complex weights of the vertices. The discrete model is consistent with the continuum quantum field theory, namely, reproduces the known expected charge density as the lattice step tends to zero. It is exactly solvable in terms of hypergeometric functions. We introduce interaction resembling Fermi's theory and establish perturbation expansion.

We perform a Monte Carlo analysis of the Ising model on many three-dimensional lattices. By means of finite-size scaling we obtain the critical points and determine the scaling dimensions. As expected, the critical exponents agree with the three-dimensional Ising universality class for all models. The irrelevant field, as revealed by the correction-to-scaling amplitudes, appears to ...

AI errors pose a significant challenge, hindering real-world applications. This work introduces a novel approach to cope with AI errors using weakly supervised error correctors that guarantee a specific level of error reduction. Our correctors have low computational cost and can be used to decide whether to abstain from making an unsafe classification. We provide ...

High-dimensional tabular data are common in biomedical and clinical research, yet conventional machine learning methods often struggle in such settings due to data scarcity, feature redundancy, and limited generalization. In this study, we systematically evaluate Synolitic Graph Neural Networks (SGNNs), a framework that transforms high-dimensional samples into sample-specific graphs by training ensembles of low-dimensional pairwise ...

This study presents on-the-fly identification and multi-step prediction of nonlinear systems with delayed inputs using a dynamic neural network combined with a smooth projection onto ellipsoids. The projection enforces parameter constraints that guarantee stability, while a Lyapunov–Krasovskii analysis yields computable ultimate error bounds. Riccati-type matrix inequalities are derived, providing an efficient vectorization–projection–devectorization implementation suitable for ...

The approximation of tensors in a low-para metric format is a crucial component in many mathematical modelling and data analysis tasks. Among the widely used low-parametric representations, the canonical polyadic (CP) decomposition is known to be very efficient. Nowadays, most algorithms for CP approximation aim to construct the approximation in the Frobenius norm; however, some ...

A B-facet is a lattice -dimensional polytope in the positive octant with a positive normal covector, such that every -dimensional simplex with vertices in it is a B-simplex (i.e., a pyramid of height one with base on a coordinate hyperplane). B-facets were introduced in [2] in the context of the monodromy conjecture. In this paper, we complete the ...

The Vickrey-Clarke-Groves (VCG) mechanism is one of the most compelling constructs in mechanism design, but the presence of complementary goods creates the possibility of non-core and even zero-revenue outcomes. In this article, we show that joint feasibility constraints on allocations offer a second pathway to ill-behaved outcomes in the VCG mechanism, even when all bidders ...

A fast simulation of the detector response is a vital task in high-energy physics (HEP). Traditional Monte-Carlo methods form the backbone of modern particle physics simulation software but are computationally expensive.

Radiation from rotational transitions of CO molecules in distant galaxies creates a chaotic background with an intensity reaching 1000 Jy/sr at a wavelength of approximately 1 mm. This background will pose a serious problem, when measuring spectral distortions of the cosmic microwave background, in particular, the mu-distortion, which presumably has an intensity of less than ...

We provide examples of smooth three-dimensional Fano complete intersections of degree 2, 4, 6, and 8 that have absolute coregularity 0. Considering the main theorem of Avilov, Loginov, and Przyjalkowski (CNTP 18:506–577, 2024) on the remaining 101 families of smooth Fano threefolds, our result implies that each family of smooth Fano threefolds has an element of absolute ...

This paper investigates the Lorentz invariance of the multidimensional Dirac–Hestenes equation, that is, whether the equation remains form-invariant under pseudo-orthogonal transformations of the coordinates. We examine two distinct approaches: the tensor formulation and the spinor formulation. We first present a detailed examination of the four-dimensional Dirac–Hestenes equation, comparing both transformation approaches. These results are subsequently ...

It is easier to investigate phenomena in particle physics geometrically by exploring a real solution to the Dirac-Hestenes equation instead of a complex solution to the Dirac equation. The present research outlines the multidimensional Dirac-Hestenes equation. Since the matrix representation of the complexified (Clifford) geometric algebra ℂ⊗Cℓ1,n depends on a parity of n, we explore even and odd ...
