论文摘要
选定配置相互作用方法的最新发展导致人们对在各种量子蒙特卡洛(QMC)方法中使用多粘量试验波函数的兴趣增加。在这里,我们提出了一种用于计算轨道空间QMC中多粘膜波函数的局部能量的算法。对于哈密顿量的初学者,我们的算法的成本缩放为$ O(n^5 + n_c)$,而不是$ O(n^4n_c)$的缩放量表的现有轨道太空算法的缩放,其中$ n $是系统大小,$ n_c $是波浪功能中的配置数量。我们使用jastrow多粘膜波函数的变异蒙特卡洛计算介绍了我们的方法,尽管形式主义应适用于辅助场量子量蒙特卡洛。我们将其应用于聚乙炔,并证明使用比使用现有方法的配置数量要大得多的可能性。
Recent developments in selected configuration interaction methods have led to increased interest in using multi-Slater trial wave functions in various quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods. Here we present an algorithm for calculating the local energy of a multi-Slater wave function in orbital space QMC. For an ab initio Hamiltonian, our algorithm has a cost scaling of $O(n^5 + n_c)$, as opposed to the $O(n^4n_c)$ scaling of existing orbital space algorithms, where $n$ is the system size, and $n_c$ is the number of configurations in the wave function. We present our method using variational Monte Carlo calculations with the Jastrow multi-Slater wave function, although the formalism should be applicable for auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo. We apply it to polyacetylene and demonstrate the possibility of using a much larger number of configurations than possible using existing methods.
