Error in Monte Carlo, quasi-error in Quasi-Monte Carlo
While the Quasi-Monte Carlo method of numerical integration achieves smaller integration error than standard Monte Carlo, its use in particle physics phenomenology has been hindered by the abscence of a reliable way to estimate that error. The standard Monte Carlo error estimator relies on the assumption that the points are generated independently of each other and, therefore, fails to account ...
متن کاملBilinear diffusion quantum Monte Carlo methods.
The standard method of quantum Monte Carlo for the solution of the Schrödinger equation in configuration space can be described quite generally as devising a random walk that generates-at least asymptotically-populations of random walkers whose probability density is proportional to the wave function of the system being studied. While, in principle, the energy eigenvalue of the Hamiltonian can ...
متن کاملElectron emission from diamondoids: a diffusion quantum Monte Carlo study.
We present density-functional theory (DFT) and quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) calculations designed to resolve experimental and theoretical controversies over the optical properties of H-terminated C nanoparticles (diamondoids). The QMC results follow the trends of well-converged plane-wave DFT calculations for the size dependence of the optical gap, but they predict gaps that are 1-2 eV higher. The...
متن کاملHeavy-tailed random error in quantum Monte Carlo.
The combination of continuum many-body quantum physics and Monte Carlo methods provide a powerful and well established approach to first principles calculations for large systems. Replacing the exact solution of the problem with a statistical estimate requires a measure of the random error in the estimate for it to be useful. Such a measure of confidence is usually provided by assuming the cent...
متن کاملFourth-order diffusion Monte Carlo algorithms for solving quantum many-body problems
By decomposing the important sampled imaginary time Schrödinger evolution operator to fourth order with positive coefficients, we derived a number of distinct fourth-order diffusion Monte Carlo algorithms. These sophisticated algorithms require higher derivatives of the drift velocity and local energy and are more complicated to program. However, they allowed very large time steps to be used, c...
