Abstract
Some applications of a new stochastic method for the numerical study of lattice models are presented. The method is directly applicable to lattice path integrals in the presence of fermionic degrees of freedom. It is also relevant for the evaluation of the partition function of lattice spin systems. We shall describe here the method briefly and present some recent results. The numerical study of Quantum Chromodynamics in the presence of fermionic vacuum polarization and the calculation of the largest eigenvalue of the transfer matrix in the three-dimensional Ising model are the most important applications.
