mvmc-dev / mVMC Tutorial
Overview
mVMC is a low-energy solver for a wide ranger of quantum lattice models (multi-orbital Hubbard model, Heisenberg model, Kondo-lattice model) by using variational Monte Carlo method. User can obtain high-accuracy wave functions for ground states of above models. Users flexibly choose the correlation factors in wavefunctions such as Gutzwiller, Jastrow, and doublon-holon binding factors and optimize more the ten thousand variational parameters. It is also possible to obtain the low-energy excited states by specifying the quantum number using the quantum number projection. This repository provides the sample data including input and output data for mVMC.
