Self-learning Monte Carlo method: Continuous-time algorithm

Yuki Nagai, Huitao Shen, Yang Qi +2 more

The self-learning Monte Carlo (SLMC) method speeds up the Monte Carlo simulation by designing and training an effective model to propose efficient global updates. We implement the continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo algorithm for quantum impurity models in the framework of SLMC. We introduce and train a diagram generating function (DGF) to model the probability distribution of field configurations in the continuous imaginary time at all orders of diagrammatic expansion. By using the DGF to propose global updates, we show that the self-learning continuous-time Monte Carlo method can significantly reduce the computational complexity of the simulation.

Continuous-time quantum impurity solvers

We present a brief overview of two continuous–time quantum Monte Carlo impurity solvers–a diagrammatic expansion of the partition function in the interaction and in the impurity-bath hybridization and mention a recently developed continuous-time auxiliary field method. We show that continuous-time methods deliver substantial gains in computational effeciency over previous QMC discrete-time algorithms.

Improved estimators for the self-energy and vertex function in hybridization-expansion continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo simulations

Hartmut Hafermann, Kelly R. Patton, Philipp Werner

We propose efficient measurement procedures for the self-energy and vertex function of the Anderson impurity model within the hybridization expansion continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo algorithm. The method is based on the measurement of higher-order correlation functions related to the quantities being sought through the equation of motion, a technique previously introduced in the numerical renormalization-group context. For the case of interactions of density-density type, the additional correlators can be obtained at essentially no additional computational cost. In combination with a recently introduced method for filtering the Monte Carlo noise using a representation in terms of orthogonal polynomials, we obtain data with unprecedented accuracy. This leads to an enhanced stability in analytical continuations of the self-energy or in two-particle-based theories such as the dual fermion approach. As an illustration of the method we reexamine the previously reported spin-freezing and high-spin to low-spin transitions in a two-orbital model with density-density interactions. In both cases, the vertex function undergoes significant changes, which suggests significant corrections to the dynamical mean-field solutions in dual fermion calculations.
