We report a quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) study, on a very simple but nevertheless very instructive model system of four hydrogen atoms, recently proposed in Ref. 1. We find that the Jastrow correlated Antisymmetrized Geminal Power (JAGP) is…

Herein, we report accurate atomization energy calculations for 55 molecules in the Gaussian-2 (G2) set using lattice regularized diffusion Monte Carlo (LRDMC). We compare the Jastrow-Slater determinant ansatz with a more flexible JsAGPs…

We show that a simple correlated wave function, obtained by applying a Jastrow correlation term to an Antisymmetrized Geminal Power (AGP), based upon singlet pairs between electrons, is particularly suited for describing the electronic…

We introduce a simple generalization of the well known geminal wavefunction already applied in Quantum Chemistry to atoms and small molecules. The main feature of the proposed wavefunction is the presence of the antisymmetric geminal part…

Neural-network quantum states offer a flexible route to compact many-electron wave functions, but their practical accuracy depends strongly on how fermionic antisymmetry, electron correlation, and optimization noise are treated. Here we…

In this article, we report a fully ab initio variational Monte Carlo study of the linear, and periodic chain of Hydrogen atoms, a prototype system providing the simplest example of strong electronic correlation in low dimensions. In…

By means of the Jastrow correlated antisymmetrized geminal power (JAGP) wave function and quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods, we study the ground state properties of the oligoacene series, up to the nonacene. The JAGP is the accurate…

We introduce an efficient method to construct optimal and system adaptive basis sets for use in electronic structure and quantum Monte Carlo calculations. The method is based on an embedding scheme in which a reference atom is singled out…

The electronic properties of the oxygen molecule, in its singlet and triplet states, and of many small oxygen-containing radicals and anions have important roles in different fields of Chemistry, Biology and Atmospheric Science.…

We extend our low-scaling variational Monte Carlo (VMC) algorithm to optimize the symmetry projected Jastrow mean field (SJMF) wavefunctions. These wavefunctions consist of a symmetry-projected product of a Jastrow and a general…

We present a variational MonteCarlo (VMC) and lattice regularized diffusion MonteCarlo (LRDMC) study of the binding energy and dispersion curve of the water dimer. As a variation ansatz we use the JAGP wave function, an implementation of…

In this work, we report potential energy surfaces (PESs) of the sodium dimer calculated by variational (VMC) and lattice regularized diffusion Monte Carlo (LRDMC). The VMC calculation is accurate for determining the equilibrium distance and…

We employ quantum Monte Carlo to obtain chemically accurate vertical and adiabatic excitation energies, and equilibrium excited-state structures for the small, yet challenging, formaldehyde and thioformaldehyde molecules. A key ingredient…

Quantum Monte Carlo methods are accurate and promising many body techniques for electronic structure calculations which, in the last years, are encountering a growing interest thanks to their favorable scaling with the system size and their…

We report an extensive theoretical study of the protonated water dimer (Zundel ion) by means of the highly correlated variational Monte Carlo and lattice regularized Monte Carlo approaches. This system represents the simplest model for…

Compact and accurate wave functions can be constructed by quantum Monte Carlo methods. Typically, these wave functions consist of a sum of a small number of Slater determinants multiplied by a Jastrow factor. In this paper we study the…

The antisymmetrized geminal power (AGP) wavefunction has a long history and is known by different names in various chemical and physical problems. There has been recent interest in using AGP as a starting point for strongly correlated…

We present a Jastrow-factor-inspired variant of coupled cluster theory that accurately describes both weak and strong electron correlation. Compatibility with quantum Monte Carlo allows for variational energy evaluations and an…

The dissociation energies of four transition metal dimers are determined using diffusion Monte Carlo. The Jastrow, CI, and molecular orbital parameters of the wave function are both partially and fully optimized with respect to the…

Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods such as variational Monte Carlo and fixed node diffusion Monte Carlo depend heavily on the quality of the trial wave function. Although Slater-Jastrow wave functions are the most commonly used variational…
