We introduce the energy-stepping Monte Carlo (ESMC) method, a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm based on the conventional dynamical interpretation of the proposal stage but employing an energy-stepping integrator. The…
Quantum mechanics for many-body systems may be reduced to the evaluation of integrals in 3N dimensions using Monte-Carlo, providing the Quantum Monte Carlo ab initio methods. Here we limit ourselves to expectation values for trial…

In this review we discuss, from a unified point of view, a variety of Monte Carlo methods used to solve eigenvalue problems in statistical mechanics and quantum mechanics. Although the applications of these methods differ widely, the…
Quantum computers have a potential for solving quantum chemistry problems with higher accuracy than classical computers. Quantum computing quantum Monte Carlo (QC-QMC) is a QMC with a trial state prepared in quantum circuit, which is…
While first order perturbation theory is routinely used in quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) calculations, higher-order terms present significant numerical challenges. We present a new approach for computing perturbative corrections in projection…
Based on the central limit theorem, we discuss the problem of evaluation of the statistical error of Monte Carlo calculations using a time discretized diffusion process. We present a robust and practical method to determine the effective…

Quantum Monte Carlo data are often afflicted with distributions that resemble lognormal probability distributions and consequently their statistical analysis can not be based on simple Gaussian assumptions. To this extent a method is…
The interaction and exchange-correlation contributions to the ground-state energy of an arbitrary many-electron system can be obtained from a spherical average of the wavevector-dependent diagonal structure factor (SF). We model the…

Quantum error mitigation (QEM) is a class of promising techniques for reducing the computational error of variational quantum algorithms. In general, the computational error reduction comes at the cost of a sampling overhead due to the…
Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) techniques are used to calculate the one-body density matrix and excitation energies for the valence electrons of bulk silicon. The one-body density matrix and energies are obtained from a Slater-Jastrow wave…

Variational Monte Carlo (VMC) methods are used to sample classically from distributions corresponding to quantum states which have an efficient classical description. VMC methods are based on performing a number of steps of a Markov chain…
We present a variational Monte Carlo (VMC) method that works equally well for the ground and the excited states of a quantum system. The method is based on the minimization of the variance of energy, as opposed to the energy itself in…

We consider quantile estimation using Markov chain Monte Carlo and establish conditions under which the sampling distribution of the Monte Carlo error is approximately Normal. Further, we investigate techniques to estimate the associated…
Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) is commonly used in simulations for Quantum Annealing (QA), but QMC as a heuristic approach has great difficulty in that it takes much time to find minimum energy. It mainly depends on the existence of a trotter…
Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods are the gold standard for studying equilibrium properties of quantum many-body systems -- their phase transitions, ground and thermal state properties. However, in many interesting situations QMC methods…
