There has been recent literature discussion on the origin and severity of the `sign problem' in full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) and its `initiator' adaptation (i-FCIQMC), methods of interest and potential because…
Quantum Monte-Carlo (QMC) simulations involving fermions have the notorious sign problem. Some well-known exceptions of the auxiliary field QMC algorithm rely on the factorizibility of the fermion determinant. Recently, a fermionic QMC…

Auxiliary field Quantum Monte Carlo simulations of interacting fermions require sampling over a Hubbard-Stratonovich field $h$ introduced to decouple the interactions. The weight for a given configuration involves the products of the…
Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods for the frustrated quantum spin systems occasionally suffer from the negative sign problem, which makes simulations exponentially harder for larger systems at lower temperatures and severely limits QMC's…
Quantum simulations are a powerful tool for exploring strongly correlated many-body phenomena. Yet, their reach is limited by the fermion sign problem, which causes configuration weights to become negative, compromising statistical…

The severity of the sign problem in lattice QCD at nonzero baryon density is measured by the average phase of the fermion determinant. Motivated by the equivalence of chiral random matrix theory and QCD to leading order in the epsilon…
Monte Carlo calculations in the framework of lattice field theory provide non-perturbative access to the equilibrium physics of quantum fields. When applied to certain fermionic systems, or to the calculation of out-of-equilibrium physics,…
Finding the ground state of a fermionic Hamiltonian using quantum Monte Carlo is a very difficult problem, due to the Fermi sign problem. While still scaling exponentially, full configuration-interaction Monte Carlo (FCI-QMC) mitigates some…

The sign problem is one of the central obstacles to efficiently simulating quantum many-body systems. It is commonly believed that some phases of matter, such as the double semion model, have an intrinsic sign problem and can never be…
We propose a framework based on the concept of the semigroup to understand the fermion sign problem. By using properties of contraction semigroups, we obtain sufficient conditions for quantum lattice fermion models to be sign-problem-free.…
