We present a variational Monte Carlo study of a model one dimensional electron gas on the continuum, with long-range interaction (1/r decay). At low density the reduced dimensionality brings about pseudonodes of the many-body wavefunction,…
We study the ground state properties of a quasi one dimensional electron gas, interacting via an effective potential with a harmonic transversal confinement and long range Coulomb tail. The exact correlation energy has been calculated for a…
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…
We present diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) and path-integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) calculations of a one-dimensional Bose system with realistic interparticle interactions in a periodic external potential. Our main aim is to test the predictions of…
We report diffusion quantum Monte Carlo calculations of three-dimensional Wigner crystals in the density range r_s=100-150. We have tested different types of orbital for use in the approximate wave functions but none improve upon the simple…
Low-energy properties of the homogeneous electron gas in one dimension are completely described by the group velocities of its charge (plasmon) and spin collective excitations. Because of the long range of the electron-electron interaction,…
We have used the variational and diffusion quantum Monte Carlo methods to calculate the energy, pair correlation function, static structure factor, and momentum density of the ground state of the two-dimensional homogeneous electron gas. We…
Employing a classical density-functional description of liquid environments, we introduce a rigorous method for the diffusion quantum Monte Carlo calculation of free energies and thermodynamic averages of solvated systems that requires…
Recent high resolution Compton scattering experiments in lithium have shown significant discrepancies with conventional band theoretical results. We present a pseudopotential quantum Monte Carlo study of electron-electron and electron-ion…
Bipolaron formation in a two-dimensional lattice with harmonic confinement, representing a simplified model for a quantum dot, is investigated by means of quantum Monte Carlo simulations. This method treats all interactions exactly and…
Understanding the effects of nonequilibrium on strongly interacting quantum systems is a challenging problem in condensed matter physics. In dimensions greater than one, interacting electrons can often be understood within Fermi-liquid…
We study numerically the low temperature behavior of a one-dimensional Bose gas trapped in an optical lattice. For a sufficient number of particles and weak repulsive interactions, we find a clear regime of temperatures where density…
Monte Carlo simulations are performed for the S = 1/2 XY and ferro- and antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model in two dimensions using the loop algorithm. Thermodynamic properties of all these models are investigated in wide temperature range.…
We have studied the spin-polarized three-dimensional homogeneous electron gas using the diffusion quantum Monte Carlo method, with trial wave functions including backflow and three-body correlations in the Jastrow factor, and we have used…
We present a simple approach to the fixed phase method in Quantum Monte Carlo. This applies to electrons in molecules and electron gas and is straightforwardly extended to the Schr\"odinger equation with magnetic field.
We study lithium systems over a range of number of atoms, e.g., atomic anion, dimer, metallic cluster, and body-centered cubic crystal by the diffusion Monte Carlo method. The calculations include both core and valence electrons in order to…
Quantum Monte Carlo methods are used to calculate various ground state properties of charged bosons in two dimensions, throughout the whole density range where the fluid phase is stable. Wigner crystallization is predicted at $r_s\simeq…
The quasiparticle effective mass is a key quantity in the physics of electron gases, describing the renormalization of the electron mass due to electron-electron interactions. Two-dimensional electron gases are of fundamental importance in…
Several models for the Monte Carlo simulation of Compton scattering on electrons are quantitatively evaluated with respect to a large collection of experimental data retrieved from the literature. Some of these models are currently…
In this paper we carry out Quantum Monte Carlo simulations of a quantum particle in a one-dimensional random potential (plus a fixed harmonic potential) at a finite temperature. This is the simplest model of an interface in a disordered…
