The Monte Carlo Method in Quantum Field Theory
by Colin Morningstar
Publisher: arXiv 2007
Number of pages: 77
Description:
This series of six lectures is an introduction to using the Monte Carlo method to carry out nonperturbative studies in quantum field theories. Path integrals in quantum field theory are reviewed, and their evaluation by the Monte Carlo method with Markov-chain based importance sampling is presented.

Introduction to Nonequilibrium Quantum Field Theory
by J. Berges - arXiv
An introduction to functional integral techniques and how they can be applied in practice. Though we focus on particle physics and cosmology applications, we emphasize that these techniques can be equally applied to other nonequilibrium phenomena.
