Optimization of ground and excited state wavefunctions and van der Waals clusters
M. P. Nightingale, Vilen Melik-Alaverdian
A quantum Monte Carlo method is introduced to optimize excited state trial wavefunctions. The method is applied in a correlation function Monte Carlo calculation to compute ground…

Quantum Monte Carlo Methods in Statistical Mechanics
Vilen Melik-Alaverdian, M. P. Nightingale
This paper deals with the optimization of trial states for the computation of dominant eigenvalues of operators and very large matrices. In addition to preliminary results for the…

Monte Carlo computation of correlation times of independent relaxation modes at criticality
M. P. Nightingale, H. W. J. Bloete
We investigate aspects of universality of Glauber critical dynamics in two dimensions. We compute the critical exponent and numerically corroborate its universality for three d…
