Understanding and Improving the Efficiency of Full Configuration Interaction Quantum Monte Carlo

W. A. Vigor, J. S. Spencer, M. J. Bearpark +1

Within Full Configuration Interaction Quantum Monte Carlo, we investigate how the statistical error behaves as a function of the parameters which control the stochastic sampling. W…

Minimising biases in Full Configuration Interaction Quantum Monte Carlo

W. A. Vigor, J. S. Spencer, M. J. Bearpark +1

We show that Full Configuration Interaction Quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) is a Markov Chain in its present form. We construct the Markov matrix of FCIQMC for a two determinant syste…
