Abstract: (APS)

We report on a faster version of the projector Monte Carlo, a method for stochastically simulating quantum Hamiltonian field theories. We also present a more accurate evaluation of the string tension for lattice U(1) gauge theory in 2+1 dimensions.

QUANTUM ELECTRODYNAMICS: THREE-DIMENSIONAL
GAUGE FIELD THEORY: U(1)
LATTICE FIELD THEORY: STRING TENSION
LATTICE FIELD THEORY: HAMILTONIAN FORMALISM
NUMERICAL CALCULATIONS: MONTE CARLO
