Tackling the Fermionic Sign Problem in the Auxiliary-Field Monte Carlo Method

G. Stoitcheva, W. E. Ormand, Daniel Neuhauser +1 more

We explore a novel and straightforward solution to the sign problem that has plagued the Auxiliary-field Monte Carlo (AFMC) method applied to many-body systems for more than a decade. We present a solution to the sign problem that has plagued the Auxiliary-field Monte Carlo (AFMC) method for more than a decade and report a breakthrough where excellent agreement between AFMC and exact CI calculations for fully realistic nuclear applications is achieved. This result offers the capability, unmatched by other methods, to achieve exact solutions for large-scale quantum many-body systems.

Green’s function Monte Carlo for few fermion problems

David M. Arnow, Malvin H. Kalos, Michael A. Lee +1 more

The Green’s function Monte Carlo method used for obtaining exact solutions to the Schrödinger equation of boson systems is generalized to treat systems of several fermions. We show that when it is possible to select eigenfunctions of the Hamiltonian based on physical symmetries, the GFMC method can be used to yield the lowest energy state of that symmetry. In particular, the lowest totally antisymmetric eigenfunction, the fermion ground state, can be obtained. Calculations on several two- and three-body model problems show the method to be computationally feasible for few-body systems.
