We present an approach to combining selected configuration interaction (SCI) and initiator full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo (i-FCIQMC). In the current i-FCIQMC scheme, the space of initiators is chosen dynamically by a…
We identify and rectify a crucial source of bias in the initiator FCIQMC algorithm. Non-initiator determinants (i.e. determinants whose population is below the initiator threshold) are subject to a systematic {\em undersampling} bias, which…
Full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) is a stochastic approach for finding the ground state of a quantum many-body Hamiltonian. It is based on the dynamical evolution of a walker population in Hilbert space, which…
Model space quantum Monte Carlo (MSQMC) is an extension of full configuration interaction QMC (FCIQMC) that allows us to calculate quasi-degenerate and excited electronic states by sampling the effective Hamiltonian in the model space. We…
We propose the use of preconditioning in FCIQMC which, in combination with perturbative estimators, greatly increases the efficiency of the algorithm. The use of preconditioning allows a time step close to unity to be used (without…
We extend the scope of full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) to be applied to coupled fermion-boson hamiltonians, alleviating the a priori truncation in boson occupation which is necessary for many other wave function…
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…
Using the homogeneous electron gas (HEG) as a model, we investigate the sources of error in the `initiator' adaptation to Full Configuration Interaction Quantum Monte Carlo (i-FCIQMC), with a view to accelerating convergence. In particular…
In this paper, we propose a general analysis framework for inexact power iteration, which can be used to efficiently solve high dimensional eigenvalue problems arising from quantum many-body problems. Under the proposed framework, we…
By performing a stochastic dynamic in a space of Slater determinants, the Full Configuration Interaction Quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) method has been able to obtain energies which are essentially free from systematic error to the basis set…
An adaptation of the full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) method is presented, for correlated electron problems containing heavy elements and the presence of significant relativistic effects. The modified algorithm…
We present a new approach to calculate excited states with the full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) method. The approach uses a Gram-Schmidt procedure, instantaneously applied to the stochastically evolving…
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…
We investigate a systematic statistical bias found in full configuration quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) that originates from controlling a walker population with a fluctuating shift parameter. This bias can become the dominant error when the…
In common with many high-accuracy electronic structure methods, the initiator adaptation of full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo (i-FCIQMC) has difficulty treating realistic systems with large numbers of electrons. This…
We investigate the sign problem for full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC), a stochastic algorithm for finding the ground state solution of the Schr\"odinger equation with substantially reduced computational cost…
In a recent paper, we proposed the adaptive shift method for correcting the undersampling bias of the initiator-FCIQMC. The method allows faster convergence with the number of walkers to the FCI limit than the normal initiator method,…
Highly accurate results for the homogeneous electron gas (HEG) have only been achieved to date within a diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) framework. Here, we introduce a newly developed stochastic technique, Full Configuration Interaction Quantum…
The convergence of full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) is accelerated using a quasi-Newton propagation (QN) which can also be applied to coupled cluster Monte Carlo (CCMC). The computational scaling of this optimised…
We show that Full Configuration Interaction Quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) is a Markov Chain in its present form. We construct the Markov matrix of FCIQMC for a two determinant system and hence compute the stationary distribution. These…
