Description
Lightcone Conformal Truncation (LCT) is a Hamiltonian Truncation scheme which allows us to solve QFTs numerically. In particular, we can use it to determine eigenstate wavefunctions in the non-perturbative regime in both 2d and 3d QFTs. We use these to calculate time-dependent correlation functions in various models. These include 2d gauge theories near the chiral limit, as well as 2d and 3d theories near criticality. In addition, we use eigenstate wavefunctions to explore chaos and thermalization, finding evidence for the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis.
