Numerical methods in non-perturbative quantum field theory

This thesis applies techniques of non-perturbative quantum field theory for solving both bosonic and fermionic systems dynamically on a lattice. The methods are first implemented in a bosonic system to examine the quantum decay of a scalar field oscillon in 2+1D. These configurations are a cla...
