Monte Carlo simulation methods for quantum mechanical systems

Robert Achleitner

This thesis work deals with Monte Carlo (MC) simulations with the focus on quantum mechanical systems. I start with an introduction about Monte-Carlo methods in general and their application to the classical Ising model. The second, most important part deals with the problem in quantum mechanics, and presents a possible simulation method, the Stochastic Series Expansion (SSE). I give an introduction about the idea behind that method and give some results obtained for simulations for finite spin chains. All programming was performed in FORTRAN.

Quantum-Enhanced Probability Distribution for Monte Carlo Simulations

Jincheng Zhang

Quantum-enhanced probability distribution is a novel approach to accelerating Monte Carlo simulations by exploiting quantum mechanics, specifically superposition and entanglement. Traditional Monte Carlo methods are computationally intensive, particularly for large-scale simulations, and this work proposes a method that utilizes these quantum phenomena to dramatically reduce computational burden. This paper details the core mechanism, discusses the theoretical underpinnings, and presents preliminary results demonstrating the effectiveness of this approach.

Monte Carlo simulations for quantum harmonic and anharmonic oscillators within epistemically restricted phase-space representation

Muhammad Jauhar Kholili, Siska A. Rifianti, Eny Latifah +1 more

Abstract We investigate Monte Carlo simulations within the epistemically-restricted phase-space (ERPS) representation of quantum mechanics for harmonic and anharmonic oscillators. Compared to the variational Monte Carlo (VMC) simulations in the conventional representation, the calculation time in the ER phase-space representation is quite competitive. We also numerically show that the distribution function of the global random variable on the order of Planck’s constant in the ER phase-space representation does not significantly affect the energy accuracy, yet a particular choice of the distribution function may give a better calculation time. This work gives an alternative approach to the Monte Carlo simulations beyond those in the conventional representation of quantum mechanics.
