Machine Learning Reduces Variance in Lattice QCD Calculations

Researchers have developed a new methodology using machine-learned normalizing flows to reduce variance in lattice gauge field theory calculations. This approach encodes the generating functional, enabling the systematic creation of noiseless estimators for correlation functions. The technique was demonstrated on Quantum Chromodynamics and Yang-Mills theory, achieving up to a three-orders-of-magnitude reduction in variance for glueball correlation functions and Wilson loops.

    Learning the generating functional for variance reduction in lattice QCD

    arXiv:2606.15986v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The generating functional in quantum field theory provides the natural framework for constructing correlation functions as derivatives with respect to source operators. We present a methodology that leverages machine-learned norma…
