Real-time quantum dynamics, path integrals and the method of thimbles (2019)
Journal Article
Mou, Z., Saffin, P. M., Tranberg, A., & Woodward, S. (2019). Real-time quantum dynamics, path integrals and the method of thimbles. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019(6), https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep06%282019%29094

Direct numerical evaluation of the real-time path integral has a well-known sign problem that makes convergence exponentially slow. One promising remedy is to use Picard-Lefschetz theory to flow the domain of the field variables into the complex plan...
