Abstract
We describe an exact Feynman-Kac type formula to represent the dynamics of fermionic lattice systems. In this approach the real time or Euclidean time dynamics is expressed in terms of the stochastic evolution of a collection of Poisson processes. From this formula we derive a family of algorithms f or Monte Carlo simulations, parametrized by the jump rates of the Poisson p rocesses.
