Stochastic Algorithms In Sparse Antisymmetrized Hilbert Spaces

Abstract

The proposed research continues the development of a highly efficient and accurate quantum Monte Carlo method for the simulation of quantum many-body systems, including large-scale, strongly correlated fermions. This has a wide-ranging impact for current and future DOD systems. The proposal addresses the most challenging conditions, i.e. fermionic and full interactionconfigurations, but the approach goes well beyond the standard density functional theory (DFT) by allowing the computation of excited states and strongly correlated systems, e.g. quantum dots or high-temperature superconductors, which are of critical importance to the DOD. The proposed work will address: a) response functions; b) optimization studies; c) finite-temperature correlation functions; d) an application to quantum chemistry.
