Efficient quantum monte carlo energies for molecular dynamics simulations.
A method is presented to treat electrons within the many-body quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) approach "on-the-fly" throughout a molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. Our approach leverages the large (10-100) ratio of the QMC electron to MD ion motion to couple the stochastic, imaginary-time electronic and real-time ionic trajectories. This continuous evolution of the QMC electrons results in highly ac...
متن کاملNovel Quantum Monte Carlo Algorithms for Fermions
Recent research shows that the partition function for a class of models involving fermions can be written as a statistical mechanics of clusters with positive definite weights. This new representation of the model allows one to construct novel algorithms. We illustrate this through models consisting of fermions with and without spin. A Hubbard type model with both attractive and repulsive inter...
متن کاملStatistical-temperature Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics algorithms.
A simulation method is presented that achieves a flat energy distribution by updating the statistical temperature instead of the density of states in Wang-Landau sampling. A novel molecular dynamics algorithm (STMD) applicable to complex systems and a Monte Carlo algorithm are developed from this point of view. Accelerated convergence for large energy bins, essential for large systems, is demon...
متن کاملIterative Monte Carlo for quantum dynamics.
We present a fully quantum mechanical methodology for calculating complex-time correlation functions by evaluating the discretized path integral expression iteratively on a grid selected by a Monte Carlo procedure. Both the grid points and the summations performed in each iteration utilize importance sampling, leading to favorable scaling with the number of particles, while the stepwise evaluat...
متن کاملMetropolis Methods for Quantum Monte Carlo Simulations
Since its first description fifty years ago, the Metropolis Monte Carlo method has been used in a variety of different ways for the simulation of continuum quantum many-body systems. This paper will consider some of the generalizations of the Metropolis algorithm employed in quantum Monte Carlo: Variational Monte Carlo, dynamical methods for projector monte carlo (i.e. diffusion Monte Carlo wit...
