A New Monte Carlo Method and Its Implications for Generalized Cluster Algorithms
C. H. Mak, Arun K. Sharma
We describe a novel switching algorithm based on a ``reverse'' Monte Carlo method, in which the potential is stochastically modified before the system configuration is moved. This…
Path-integral Monte Carlo Simulations without the Sign Problem: Multilevel Blocking Approach for Effective Actions
R. Egger, L. Muehlbacher, C. H. Mak
The multilevel blocking algorithm recently proposed as a possible solution to the sign problem in path-integral Monte Carlo simulations has been extended to systems with long-range…
Multilevel blocking Monte Carlo simulations for quantum dots
R. Egger, C. H. Mak
This article provides an introduction to the ideas behind the multilevel blocking (MLB) approach to the fermion sign problem in path-integral Monte Carlo simulations, and also give…
A Stochastic Liouvillian Algorithm to Simulate Dissipative Quantum Dynamics With Arbitrary Precision
J. Stockburger, C. H. Mak
An exact and efficient new method to simulate dynamics in dissipative quantum systems is presented. A stochastic Liouville equation, deduced from Feynman and Vernon's path-integral…
Is the direct observation of electronic coherence in electron transfer reactions possible?
A. Lucke, C. H. Mak, R. Egger +3
The observability of electronic coherence in electron transfer reactions is discussed. We show that under appropriate circumstances large-amplitude oscillations can be found in the…
A Dynamical Theory of Electron Transfer: Crossover from Weak to Strong Electronic Coupling
Juergen T. Stockburger, C. H. Mak
We present a real-time path integral theory for the rate of electron transfer reactions. Using graph theoretic techniques, the dynamics is expressed in a formally exact way as a se…
