Erratum: Diffusion Monte Carlo study of circular quantum dots

Abstract

Several of the energies in Tables I and II of our previous paper are incorrect. Most of the errors are due to incorrectly inputting the symmetry of some of the states, others are due to incorrectly converting or transcribing the energies. In particular, for N=4 we had a near degeneracy and a violation of Hund's first rule. The corrected result has $|L=0,S=1>$ as the ground state, as predicted by Hund's rule. Hund's first rule is satisfied for all $N$ for the confining potential used. We present corrected versions of Tables I and II.
