Stochastic Estimator Techniques and Their Implementation on Distributed Parallel Computers

Abstract

The calculation of physical quantities by lattice QCD simulations requires in some important cases the determination of the inverse of a very large matrix. In this article we describe how stochastic estimator methods can be applied to this problem, and how such techniques can be efficiently implemented on parallel computers.
