Strong correlation can be essentially captured with multireference wavefunction methods such as complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) or density matrix renormalization group (DMRG). Still, an accurate description of the…
We discuss electronic properties and their evolution for the linear chain of $H_2$ molecules in the presence of a uniform external force $f$ acting along the chain. The system is described by an extended Hubbard model within a fully…
The one-dimensional (1D) $t$-$J$ model is investigated by using a Gutzwiller-Jastrow-type variation method and the exact diagonalization of small systems. Variational expectation values are estimated by the variational Monte Carlo method…
We propose a Jastrow factor for electron-electron correlations that interpolates between the radial symmetry of the Coulomb interaction at short inter-particle distance and the space-group symmetry of the simulation cell at large…
We present a variational function that targets excited states directly based on their position in the energy spectrum, along with a Monte Carlo method for its evaluation and minimization whose cost scales polynomially for a wide class of…
We present a quantum Monte Carlo study of the hydrogen-benzene system where binding is very weak. We demonstrate that the binding is well described at both variational Monte Carlo (VMC) and diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) levels by a Jastrow…
It has been well established that the Jastrow correlation factor can effectively capture the electron correlation effects, and thus, the efficient optimization of the many-body wave function including the Jastrow correlation factor is of…
The variational and diffusion quantum Monte Carlo methods are used to calculate the correlation energy of the paramagnetic three-dimensional homogeneous electron gas at intermediate to high density. Ground state energies in finite cells are…
Crystal Structure Prediction (CSP) of molecular crystals plays a central role in applications, such as pharmaceuticals and organic electronics. CSP is challenging and computationally expensive due to the need to explore a large search space…
We present a novel specialization of the variational Monte Carlo linear method for the optimization of the recently introduced cluster Jastrow antisymmetric geminal power ansatz, achieving a lower-order polynomial cost scaling than would be…
A variational nodal partition of the correlation energy is introduced, $E_{\mathrm{cor}}=E_{\mathrm{sym}}+E_{\mathrm{stat}}$, relative to a chosen mean-field correlation baseline and its associated single-determinant node. Static…
We explore the use in quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) of trial wave functions consisting of a Jastrow factor multiplied by a truncated configuration-interaction (CI) expansion in Slater determinants obtained from a CI perturbatively selected…
The study of alloys using computational methods has been a difficult task due to the usually unknown stoichiometry and local atomic ordering of the different structures experimentally. In order to combat this, first-principles methods have…
The electronic band structure of many compounds, e.g., carbon-based structures, can exhibit essentially no dispersion. Models of electrons in flat-band lattices define non-perturbative strongly correlated problems by default. We construct a…
State-of-the-art many-body wave function techniques rely on heuristics to achieve high accuracy at an attainable cost to solve the many-body Schr\"odinger equation. By far the most common property used to assess accuracy has been the total…
The strongly coupled electron liquid provides a unique opportunity to study the complex interplay of strong coupling with quantum degeneracy effects and thermal excitations. To this end, we carry out extensive \textit{ab initio} path…
We apply the transcorrelated method to problems of multireference character. For this, we show that the choice of reference wavefunction during the Jastrow optimisation procedure is vital, and we propose a workflow wherein we use…
Describing the Coulomb interactions between electrons in atomic or molecular systems is an important step to help us obtain accurate results for the different observables in the system. One convenient approach is to separate the dynamic…
The (stationary) Schr\"{o}dinger equation for atomistic systems is solved using the adiabatic potential energy curves (PECs) and the associated adiabatic approximation. Despite being very simplistic, this approach is very powerful and used…
We study the potential energy surface of the ozone molecule by means of Quantum Monte Carlo simulations based on the resonating valence bond concept. The trial wave function consists of an antisymmetrized geminal power arranged in a…
