Feynman Path Integral #28

Open Roger-luo opened 9 years ago

Roger-luo commented 9 years ago

is there a Monte Carlo Method for Feynman Path Integral?I didn't find one in the doc

acroy commented 9 years ago

Not yet. What specifically do you have in mind?

Roger-luo commented 9 years ago

not any good idea yet, but I just think a simplest Monte Carlo method for Feynman Path Integral is necessary.cause sometimes people may use path integral to calculate a wave function by force. BTW the QuBase.jl or some other packages may need a Propagator type for path integral?

acroy commented 9 years ago

Yes, it would definitely be good to have some PIMC propagator. One possible problem could be that at the moment everything in QuBase/QuDynamics is about discrete bases? If you have a good reference it would be great of you could share it. The general workflow of adding a new propagator type is described in this wiki article.

Sure,I would try to write one accroding to the wiki article
