| contents | The numerical sign problem remains one of the central challenges in computational physics. The Worldvolume Hybrid Monte Carlo (WV-HMC) method has recently been proposed as a reliable and computationally efficient algorithm that crucially avoids the ergodicity issues inherent in Lefschetz-thimble approaches. In these proceedings, after outlining the key ideas behind WV-HMC, we present its extension to group manifolds. This provides a rigorous framework for applying WV-HMC to lattice gauge theories. |
