A Quantum Monte Carlo Method and Its Applications to Multi-Orbital Hubbard Models

Abstract

We present a framework of an auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) method for multi-orbital Hubbard models. Our formulation can be applied to a Hamiltonian which includes terms for on-site Coulomb interaction for both intra- and inter-orbitals, intra-site exchange interaction and energy differences between orbitals. Based on our framework, we point out possible ways to investigate various phase transitions such as metal-insulator, magnetic and orbital order-disorder transitions without the minus sign problem. As an application, a two-band model is investigated by the projection QMC method and the ground state properties of this model are presented.
