Certain point defects in solids can efficiently be used as qubits for applications in quantum technology. They have spin states that are initializable, readable, robust, and can be manipulated optically. New theoretical methods are needed…

Recently, a new distributed implementation of the full configuration interaction (FCI) method has been reported [Gao et al. J. Chem Theory Comput. 2024, 20, 1185]. Thanks to a hybrid parallelization scheme, the authors were able to compute…

Full Configuration Interaction Quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) has been effectively applied to very large configuration interaction (CI) problems, and was recently adapted for use as an active space solver and combined with orbital…

The Diffusion Monte Carlo method is devoted to the computation of electronic ground-state energies of molecules. In this paper, we focus on implementations of this method which consist in exploring the configuration space with a {\bf fixed}…

Computational codes based on the Diffusion Monte Carlo method can be used to determine the quantum state of two-electron systems confined by external potentials of various nature and geometry. In this work, we show how the application of…

Variational quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) is an ab-initio method for solving the electronic Schr\"odinger equation that is exact in principle, but limited by the flexibility of the available ansatzes in practice. The recently introduced deep…

We computed ground-state energies of calcium isotopes from 42Ca to 48Ca by means of the Auxiliary Field Diffusion Monte Carlo (AFDMC) method. Calculations were performed by replacing the 40Ca core with a mean-field self consistent potential…

Ultracold atomic Fermi gases have been a popular topic of research, with attention being paid recently to two-dimensional (2D) gases. In this work, we perform T=0 ab initio diffusion Monte Carlo calculations for a strongly interacting…

Fermionic cold atoms in optical traps provide viable quantum simulators of correlation effects in electronic systems. For dressed Rydberg atoms in two-dimensional traps with out-of-plane dipole moments, a realistic model of the pairwise…

Accurately predicting the formation energy of a compound, which describes its thermodynamic stability, is a key challenge in materials physics. Here, we employ many-body quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) with single-reference trial functions to…

We introduce an efficient approach to implement correlated many-body trial wave functions in auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo (AFQMC). To control the sign/phase problem in AFQMC, a constraint is derived from an exact gauge condition but…

We perform excited-state variational Monte Carlo and diffusion Monte Carlo calculations using a simple and efficient wave function ansatz. This ansatz follows the recent variation-after-response formalism, accurately approximating a…

Recently Schautz and Flad concluded that the Hellmann-Feynman theorem holds within the fixed-node diffusion quantum Monte Carlo (DMC) method. We show that the Hellmann-Feynman expression is not in general equal to the derivative of the DMC…

The band structure of silicon is calculated at the Gamma, X, and L wave vectors using diffusion quantum Monte Carlo methods. Excited states are formed by promoting an electron from the valence band into the conduction band. We obtain good…
