This equation contains polynomial non-linearity which allows to use the link between non-stationary iterative processes and the branched Markov chains. The presented Monte Carlo algorithm uses an appropriate simulation of branching stochastic processes. It is proved that the mathematical expectation of the introduced random variable is equal to a linear functional of the solution. A variety of numerical experiments are performed. Particularly some nonlinear solutions are compared with the corresponding linear ones. It is shown that, depending on the initial condition, the nonlinearity can have an important effect on the evolution of the solution. The work demonstrates that the proposed stochastic method can be used for studying of a wide class problems in this field. \end{abstract} {\it keywords:} Monte Carlo method, quantum-kinetic equation, random variable, branching stochastic processes \end{document}
