Classical Simulations of Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetime I: Fermionic Hawking-Hartle Vacua from a Staggered Lattice Scheme
We numerically compute renormalized expectation values of quadratic operators in a quantum field theory (QFT) of free Dirac fermions in curved two-dimensional (Lorentzian) spacetime. First, we use a staggered-fermion discretization to generate a sequence of lattice theories yielding the desired QFT...
