Sommario/riassunto

This is a review written by leading specialists on the state of the art of computational methods in lattice field theory. They cover a wide range: computer-assisted proofs, algorithms for computer simulation of field theories, effective field theories, computer studies of finite size effects,



simulation with fast algorithms, and computer applications in experimental particle physics. The book addresses researchers, engineers, and graduate students in particle physics.
