Abstract

The pseudoparticle approach is a numerical technique to compute path integrals without discretizing spacetime. The basic idea is to integrate over those field configurations, which can be represented by a sum of a fixed number of localized building blocks (pseudoparticles). In a couple of previous papers we have successfully applied the pseudoparticle approach to pure SU(2) Yang-Mills theory. In this work I discuss how to incorporate fermionic fields in the pseudoparticle approach. To test the method, I compute the phase diagram of the 1+1-dimensional Gross-Neveu model in the large-N limit.
