Monte--Carlo Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz

Abstract

We introduce a Monte--Carlo simulation approach to thermodynamic Bethe ansatz (TBA). We exemplify the method on one particle integrable models, which include a free boson and a free fermions systems along with the scaling Lee--Yang model (SLYM). It is confirmed that the central charges and energies are correct to a very good precision, typically 0.1% or so. The advantage of the method is that it enables the calculation of all the dimensions and even the particular partition function.Comment: 22 pages.
