Abstract
This paper deals with the sign problem in full configuration-interaction quantum Monte Carlo. After putting this article on the arxiv, it was pointed out to us that our argument applies to a number of model Hamiltonians we considered numerically but not to the most generic case. Please see arxiv: 1209.3044, where we have a corrected comprehensive discussion of the necessary and sufficient conditions for when the sign problem for a given Hamiltonian (and basis) differ between first and second quantization.
