Path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulations are used to calculate the momentum distribution of the homogeneous electron gas at finite temperature. This is done by calculating the off-diagonal elements of the real-space density matrix,…
Using Path Integral Monte Carlo and the Maximum Entropy method, we calculate the dynamic structure factor of solid $^4$He in the bcc phase at a finite temperature of T = 1.6 K and a molar volume of 21 cm$^3$. Both the single-phonon…

Solid helium (3He and 4He) in the hcp and fcc phases has been studied by path-integral Monte Carlo. Simulations were carried out in the isothermal-isobaric (NPT) ensemble at pressures up to 52 GPa. This allows one to study the temperature…
The lattice dynamics of hcp crystalline 4He is studied at zero temperature and for two different densities (near and far from melting), using a ground-state path-integral quantum Monte Carlo technique. The complete phonon dispersion is…
The coexistence between the hcp and bcc phases of solid 4He at fixed pressure, and at three different temperatures, is studied by means of the path integral Monte Carlo method. Microscopic results for the main energetic and structure…
We present extensive new \emph{ab initio} path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulations of normal liquid $^3$He without any nodal constraints. This allows us to study the effects of temperature on different structural properties like the…
Recently there have been experimental indications that solid 4He might be a supersolid. We discuss the relation of supersolid behavior to ring exchange. The tunnelling frequencies for ring exchanges in quantum solids are calculated using…
We have obtained the one--body density matrix and the momentum distribution $n(p)$ of liquid $^4$He at $T=3D0^o$K from Diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) simulations, using trial functions optimized via the Euler Monte Carlo (EMC) method. We find…
In a classical plasma the momentum distribution, $n(k)$, decays exponentially, for large $k$, and the same is observed for an ideal Fermi gas. However, when quantum and correlation effects are relevant simultaneously, an algebraic decay,…
Quantum Monte Carlo approaches such as the diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) method are among the most accurate many-body methods for extended systems. Their scaling makes them well suited for defect calculations in solids. We review the various…
Restricted path integral Monte Carlo simulations are used to calculate the equilibrium properties of hydrogen in the density and temperature range of $9.83 \times 10^{-4}\rm \leq \rho \leq 0.153 \rm gcm^{-3}$ and $5000 \leq T \leq 250 000…
We introduce a new path integral Monte Carlo method for investigating nonadiabatic systems in thermal equilibrium and demonstrate an approach to reducing stochastic error. We derive a general path integral expression for the partition…
Two-nucleon momentum distributions are calculated for the ground states of 3He and 4He as a function of the nucleons' relative and total momenta. We use variational Monte Carlo wave functions derived from a realistic Hamiltonian with two-…
The path-integral formulation of the statistical mechanics of quantum many-body systems is described, with the purpose of introducing practicaltechniques for the simulation of solids. Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics methods for…
