Abstract
We discuss the application of normalizing flows to bosonic lattice field theories with real-time sign problems. A normalizing flow, once it is found for such a lattice field theory, is guaranteed to solve its sign problem. We argue for the existence of normalizing flows for bosonic lattice field theories in the Schwinger-Keldish formalism in a few ways. We then discuss how this existence is a specific feature of bosonic theories: such arguments break down for fermionic systems, whether at finite density or in real-time.
