This method can be used to directly compute the energy differential between two system in the diffusion process, making the statistical error of calculation be reduced to Order of 10?-5 hartree, and recover about more than 80% of the correlation. We employed this approach to set up a potential energy surface of a molecule, used a “rigid move” model, and utilized Jacobi transformation to make energy calculation for two configurations of a molecule having good positive correlation. So, an accurate energy differential could be obtained, and the potential energy surface with good quality can be depicted. In calculation, a technique called “post-equilibrium remaining sample” was set up firstly, which can save about 50% of computation expense. This novel algorithm was used to study the potential as molecular spectroscopy and the energy variation in chemical reactions.展开更多

For a specific regime of the parameters (tx = tp,ty 〈 0), the exact ground-state is found analytically, which is a dimerized insulator with one electron bound in each rung of the ladder. For the case tx, ty, tp 〉 0, the system is exactly studied using quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) method without a sign problem. It is found that the system is a Mott insulator for small tp and a quantum phase transition to a superfluid phase is driven by increasing tp. The critical t~ is determined precisely by a scaling analysis. Since it is possible that the Creutz ladder is realized experimentally, the theoretical results are interesting to the cold-atom experiments.展开更多

We have derived an expansion of the eigenvalue of the energy for a system and proved that the value of the energy calculated using the traditional fixed-node quantum Monte Carlo method is only the zero order approximation of the eigenvalue of the energy. But when using our novel method, in the case of only increasing less computing amounts (<1%), we can obtain conveniently the first order approximation, second order approximation, and so on. We have calculated the values of the zero, first and second approximation (0, 1 and 2) of the energies of 11A1 state of CH2, 1Ag (C4h, acet) state of C8 and the ground-state of H2O using this novel method. The results indicate that for 11A1 state of CH2, 1Ag (C4h, acet) state of C8 and the ground-state of H2O it needs only the second order approximation to obtain electronic correlation energy with over 97%. This demonstrates that this novel method is very excellent in both the computing accuracy and the amount of calculation required.展开更多

The method has been em-ployed to calculate the potential energy curve of C2. The total energies for the X 1Σg+state of C2 were calculated at seven values of the bond length: 0. 106, 0. 111, 0. 124,0. 132, 0. 143, 0. 159 and 0. 185 nm; and a smooth potential energy curve was ob-tained, because when the self-optimizing technique is used, the statistical error decreas-es tremendously. The calculation results on the potential energy curve of C2 show thatthe self-optimizing diffusion quantum Monte Carlo method proposed in the present pa-per is successful.展开更多

In contrast to the previous EFNQMC method, the trial function is optimized synchronistically in the diffusion procedure, but not before the beginning of EFNQMC computation. In order to optimize the trial function, the improved steepest descent technique is used, in which the step size is automatically adjustable. The procedure is quasi-Newton and converges super linearly. We also use a novel trial function, which has correct electron-electron and electron-nucleus cusp conditions. The novel EFNQMC algorithm and the novel trial function are employed to calculate the energies of 11 A1 state of CH2, 1Ag state of C8 and the ground-states of H2, LiH, Li2, H2O, respectively. The test results show that both the novel algorithm and the trial function proposed in the present paper are very excellent.展开更多
