Quantum Geometry Driven Crystallization: A Neural-Network Variational Monte Carlo Study

Agnes Valenti, Yaar Vituri, Yubo Yang +7

Wigner crystals are a paradigmatic form of interaction driven electronic order. A key open question is how Berry curvature and, more generally, quantum geometry reshape crystalliza…

Excited states in auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo

Ankit Mahajan, Sandeep Sharma, Shiwei Zhang +1

We systematically investigate the calculation of excited states in quantum chemistry using auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo (AFQMC). Symmetry allows targeting of the lowest trip…

Engineering Hubbard models with gated two-dimensional moiré systems

Yiqi Yang, Yubo Yang, Miguel A. Morales +1

Lattice models are powerful tools for studying strongly correlated quantum many-body systems, but their general lack of exact solutions motivates efforts to simulate them in tunabl…

Addressing the Infinite Variance Problem in Fermionic Monte Carlo Simulations: Retrospective Error Remediation and the Exact Bridge Link Method

Zhou-Quan Wan, Shiwei Zhang

We revisit the infinite variance problem in fermionic Monte Carlo simulations, which is widely encountered in areas ranging from condensed matter to nuclear and high-energy physics…

Implementing advanced trial wave functions in fermion quantum Monte Carlo via stochastic sampling

Zhi-Yu Xiao, Zixiang Lu, Yixiao Chen +2

We introduce an efficient approach to implement correlated many-body trial wave functions in auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo (AFQMC). To control the sign/phase problem in AFQMC…

Single-Particle Dispersion and Density of States of the Half-Filled 2D Hubbard Model

Gabe Schumm, Shiwei Zhang, Anders W. Sandvik

Implementing an improved method for analytic continuation and working with imaginary-time correlation functions computed using quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we resolve the singl…
