The lecture course gives an introduction to concepts of lattice field theory as they are used to study in particular nonperturbative aspects of QCD covering the topics:

  • Path integrals, Euclidean field theory
  • Discretizing space and time
  • Gauge fields on the lattice
  • Fermions on the lattice
  • Generating gauge field configurations
  • Calculation of 2-point functions
  • Gradient flow  
  • Scale setting
