Signature of Short-Range Order in Static Response of the Three-Dimensional Electron Gas

Muhammed H. Güneş, Yubo Yang, Vitaly Gorelov +4

The three-dimensional electron gas is a fundamental model in condensed matter physics and quantum chemistry, and the exchange-correlation energy derived from it serves as the start…

Unbiased Diffusion Monte Carlo for non local operators

Carlos Rodriguez Perez, Valerio Olevano, Francesco Sottile +1

We propose a new mathematically exact method for computing unbiased Diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) estimates of non-local operators. We demonstrate that the current state-of- the-art…

Designing explicit functionals for the charge density in terms of a potential

Muhammed H. Güneş, Ayoub Aouina, Vitaly Gorelov +2

One of the most powerful strategies to address properties of real many-body systems is to incorporate data obtained for models, for example, to use data of the homogeneous electron…

Delocalization of dark and bright excitons in flat-band materials and the optical properties of VO

Vitaly Gorelov, Lucia Reining, Martin Feneberg +4

The simplest picture of excitons in materials with atomic-like localization of electrons is that of Frenkel excitons, where electrons and holes stay close together, which is associ…
