To make useful connections with experimental measurements, correlated electronic structure theories must accurately predict chemical properties in addition to energies. We present a finite-difference based algorithm to compute first-order…
In the last few years we have been developing a Monte Carlo simulation method to cope with systems of many electrons and ions in the Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation, the Coupled Electron-Ion Monte Carlo Method (CEIMC). Electronic…
Ground state properties of the Hubbard model on a two-dimensional square lattice are studied by the auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo method. Accurate results for energy, double occupancy, effective hopping, magnetization, and momentum…
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…
We present an elementary and self-contained account of the analogies existing between classical diffusion and the imaginary-time evolution of quantum systems. These analogies are used to develop a new quantum simulation method which allows…
We present a new Monte Carlo algorithm that produces results of high accuracy with reduced simulational effort. Independent random walks are performed (concurrently or serially) in different, restricted ranges of energy, and the resultant…
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…
There is a class of quantum Hamiltonians known as Rokhsar-Kivelson(RK)-Hamiltonians for which static ground state properties can be obtained by evaluating thermal expectation values for classical models. The ground state of an…
