Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse

During this project and in very close collaboration between physicists and mathematicians, we were able to develop a number of mathematical and algorithmic tools to solve models of high energy physics. These methods comprise Quasi Monte Carlo techniques, iterative numerical integration, effective dimension reduction and new integration rules showing polynomial exactness. This toolbox of new methods is extremely valuable to address problems in the future. Investigations of models in high energy physics in higher dimensions are still under study even beyond the funding period. In fact, very signifcant significant progress in this direction has been made recently and we expect to publish results from these investigations very soon. For the development of such a toolbox of new methods and the very successful interaction between theoretical physicists from high energy physics and applied mathematicians the funding of the DFG has been indispensable. This support has established a very productive cooperation, which is still running and continued in new projects.
