Load-Balanced Diffusion Monte Carlo Method with Lattice Regularization

Kousuke Nakano, Sandro Sorella, Michele Casula

Ab initio quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) is a stochastic approach for solving the many-body Schrödinger equation without resorting to one-body approximations. QMC algorithms are readily…

Beyond single-reference fixed-node approximation in ab initio Diffusion Monte Carlo using antisymmetrized geminal power applied to systems with hundreds of electrons

Kousuke Nakano, Sandro Sorella, Dario Alfè +1

Diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) is an exact technique to project out the ground state (GS) of a Hamiltonian. Since the GS is always bosonic, in fermionic systems the projection needs t…

A Jastrow wave function for the spin-1 Heisenberg chain: the string order revealed by the mapping to the classical Coulomb gas

Davide Piccioni, Christian Apostoli, Federico Becca +4

We show that a two-body Jastrow wave function is able to capture the ground-state properties of the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain with the single-ion anisotropy term, in…
