Variational Monte Carlo method for electron-phonon coupled systems

Takahiro Ohgoe, Masatoshi Imada

We develop a variational Monte Carlo (VMC) method for electron-phonon coupled systems. The VMC method has been extensively used for investigating strongly correlated electrons over the last decades. However, its applications to electron-phonon coupled systems have been severely restricted because of its large Hilbert space. Here, we propose a variational wave function with a large number of variational parameters, which is suitable and tractable for systems with electron-phonon coupling. In the proposed wave function, we implement an unexplored electron-phonon correlation factor, which takes into account the effect of the entanglement between electrons and phonons. The method is applied to systems with diagonal electron-phonon interactions, i.e., interactions between charge densities and lattice displacements (phonons). As benchmarks, we compare VMC results with previous results obtained by the exact diagonalization, the Green function Monte Carlo method and the density matrix renormalization group for the Holstein and Holstein-Hubbard model. From these benchmarks, we show that the present method offers an efficient way to treat strongly coupled electron-phonon systems.

Quantum Monte Carlo study of the quasiparticle effective mass of the two-dimensional uniform electron liquid

Sam Azadi, N. D. Drummond, Alessandro Principi +2 more

The real-space variation quantum Monte Carlo (VMC) and diffusion quantum Monte Carlo (DMC) are used to calculate the energy bands and the effective mass of the paramagnetic and ferromagnetic two-dimensional uniform electron liquid (2D-UEL). The many-body finite-size errors are minimized by performing simulations for three system sizes with the number of electrons, N = 146 , 218, and 302, for paramagnetic and N = 91 , 139, and 151 for ferromagnetic systems. We consider 2D-UEL to be within the density range 1 ≤ r s ≤ 10 . The VMC and DMC results predict that the effective mass m * of the paramagnetic 2D-UEL at high density r s = 1 is very close to 1, suggesting that the effective mass renormalization due to electron-electron interaction is negligible. We find that m * of the paramagnetic 2D-UEL obtained by the VMC and DMC methods increases by r s but with different slopes. Our VMC and DMC results for ferromagnetic 2D-UEL indicate that m * decreases rapidly by reducing the density due to the strong suppression of the electron-electron interaction.
