Self-consistent GW via conservation of spectral moments

Oliver J. Backhouse, Marcus K. Allen, Charles C. J. Scott +1

We expand on a recently introduced alternate framework for simulation of charged excitations [Scott et. al., J. Chem. Phys., 158, 124102 (2023)], based around the conservation…

Rigorous screened interactions for realistic correlated electron systems

Charles J. C. Scott, George H. Booth

We derive a widely-applicable first principles approach for determining two-body, static effective interactions for low-energy Hamiltonians with quantitative accuracy. The algebrai…

A 'moment-conserving' reformulation of GW theory

Charles J. C. Scott, Oliver J. Backhouse, George H. Booth

We show how to construct an effective Hamiltonian whose dimension scales linearly with system size, and whose eigenvalues systematically approximate the excitation energies of GW t…

Full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo for coupled electron--boson systems and infinite spaces

Robert J. Anderson, Charles C. J. Scott, George H. Booth

We extend the scope of full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) to be applied to coupled fermion-boson hamiltonians, alleviating the a priori truncation in boson…

Extending Density Matrix Embedding: A Static Two-Particle Theory

Charles J. C. Scott, George H. Booth

We introduce Extended Density Matrix Embedding Theory (EDMET), a static quantum embedding theory explicitly self-consistent with respect to local two-body physics. This overcomes t…

Theory and Implementation of a Novel Stochastic Approach to Coupled Cluster

Charles J. C. Scott, Roberto Di Remigio, T. Daniel Crawford +1

We present a detailed discussion of our novel diagrammatic coupled cluster Monte Carlo (diagCCMC) [Scott et al. J. Phys. Chem. Lett. 2019, 10, 925]. The diagCCMC algorithm performs…

Diagrammatic Coupled Cluster Monte Carlo

Charles J. C. Scott, Roberto Di Remigio, T. Daniel Crawford +1

We propose a modified coupled cluster Monte Carlo algorithm that stochastically samples connected terms within the truncated Baker--Campbell--Hausdorff expansion of the similarity…

Preconditioning and perturbative estimators in full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo

Nick S. Blunt, Alex J. W. Thom, Charles J. C. Scott

We propose the use of preconditioning in FCIQMC which, in combination with perturbative estimators, greatly increases the efficiency of the algorithm. The use of preconditioning al…

The HANDE-QMC project: open-source stochastic quantum chemistry from the ground state up

James S. Spencer, Nick S. Blunt, Seonghoon Choi +15

Building on the success of Quantum Monte Carlo techniques such as diffusion Monte Carlo, alternative stochastic approaches to solve electronic structure problems have emerged over…

Multireference Stochastic Coupled Cluster

Maria-Andreea Filip, Charles J. C. Scott, Alex J. W. Thom

We describe a modification of the stochastic coupled cluster algorithm that allows the use of multiple reference determinants. By considering the secondary references as excitation…

Stochastic Coupled Cluster Theory: Efficient Sampling of the Coupled Cluster Expansion

Charles J. C. Scott, Alex J. W. Thom

We consider the sampling of the coupled cluster expansion within stochastic coupled cluster theory. Observing the limitations of previous approaches due to the inherently non-linea…
