Non-equilibrium Monte Carlo Methods for Confining Strings and the Critical Casimir Effect

This 33-minute conference talk by Alessandro Nada from the University of Turin explores "Non-equilibrium Monte Carlo methods for confining strings and the critical Casimir effect." Delve into advanced computational techniques applied to strongly interacting Quantum Field Theory (QFT) systems, with particular focus on confining strings and critical phenomena. The presentation is part of a broader conference examining the interplay between lattice and continuum approaches to QFT, covering topics such as Euclidean and Hamiltonian approaches to lattice field theory, string-theoretic approaches to confining flux tubes, and connections with quantum simulation. Co-sponsored by the Simons Collaboration on Confinement and QCD Strings, this talk contributes to discussions on Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and strongly coupled physics at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics.
