In this manuscript we review recent developments in the numerical simulations of bipartite SU(N) spin models by quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods. We provide an account of a large family of newly discovered sign-problem free spin models…
These lecture notes introduce quantum spin systems and several computational methods for studying their ground-state and finite-temperature properties. Symmetry-breaking and critical phenomena are first discussed in the simpler setting of…
Optimum ground states are constructed in two dimensions by using so called vertex state models. These models are graphical generalizations of the well-known matrix product ground states for spin chains. On the hexagonal lattice we obtain a…
We solve a variety of sign problems for models in lattice field theory using the Hamiltonian formulation, including Yukawa models and simple lattice gauge theories. The solutions emerge naturally in continuous time and use the dual…
Quantum Monte Carlo methods are powerful tools for studying quantum many-body systems but face difficulties in accessing excited states and in treating sign problems. We present a continuous-time path-integral Monte Carlo method for…
We present a massively parallel quantum Monte Carlo based implementation of real-space dynamical mean-field theory for general inhomogeneous correlated fermionic lattice systems. As a first application, we study magnetic order in a binary…
Lattice field theory methods, usually associated with non-perturbative studies of quantum chromodynamics, are becoming increasingly common in the calculation of ground-state and thermal properties of strongly interacting non-relativistic…
We present a universal quantum Monte Carlo algorithm for simulating arbitrary high-spin (spin greater than 1/2) Hamiltonians, based on the recently developed permutation matrix representation (PMR) framework. Our approach extends a…
Hubbard-type models on the hexagonal lattice are of great interest, as they provide realistic descriptions of graphene and other related materials. Hybrid Monte Carlo simulations offer a first-principles approach to study their phase…
We provide an extension to lattice systems of the reptation quantum Monte Carlo algorithm, originally devised for continuous Hamiltonians. For systems affected by the sign problem, a method to systematically improve upon the so-called…
Monte Carlo methods have led to profound insights into the strong-coupling behaviour of lattice gauge theories and produced remarkable results such as first-principles computations of hadron masses. Despite tremendous progress over the last…
We study a soliton in an optical lattice holding bosonic atoms quantum mechanically using both an exact numerical solution and quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The computation of the state is combined with an explicit account of the…
In order to solve quantum field theory in a non-perturbative way, Lagrangian lattice simulations have been very successful. Here we discuss a recently proposed alternative Hamiltonian lattice formulation - the Monte Carlo Hamiltonian. In…
The Hamiltonian formulation of Lattice QCD with staggered fermions in the strong coupling limit has no sign problem at non-zero baryon density and allows for Quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We have extended this formalism to two flavors,…
We study a continuum model of the interface of graphene and vacuum in the quantum hall regime via sign-problem-free quantum Monte Carlo, allowing us to investigate the interplay of topology and strong interactions in a graphene quantum Hall…
Quantum Monte Carlo simulations of fermions are hampered by the notorious sign problem whose most striking manifestation is an exponential growth of sampling errors with the number of particles. With the sign problem known to be an NP-hard…
The absence of negative sign problem in quantum Monte Carlo simulations of spin and fermion systems has different origins. World-line based algorithms for spins require positivity of matrix elements whereas auxiliary field approaches for…
Semiconductor artificial graphene nanostructures where Hubbard model parameter $U/t$ can be of the order of 100, provide a highly controllable platform to study strongly correlated quantum many-particle phases. We use accurate variational…
Building on recent solutions of the fermion sign problem for specific models we present two continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo methods for efficient simulation of mass-imbalanced Hubbard models on bipartite lattices at half-filling. For…
Describing correlated electron systems near phase transitions has been a major challenge in computational condensed-matter physics. In this paper, we apply highly accurate fixed node quantum Monte Carlo techniques, which directly work with…
