Path Integral Monte Carlo

Path Integral Monte Carlo is used to calculate exchange frequencies as electrons undergo ring exchanges in a "clean" 2d Wigner crystal as a function of density. Agreement with WKB calculations is found at very low density, but the results show an enhanced increase with density near melting. Remarkably, the exchange Hamiltonian closely resembles the measured exchanges in 2d3 He . Using the resulting multi-spin exchange model we find the spin Hamiltonian for rs ≥ 175 ± 10 is a frustrated antiferromagnetic, with a spin liquid ground state. For lower density the ground state will be ferromagnetic. Some effects of a magnetic field are presented.

Variable Representation

The discrete variable representation (DVR) matrix dynamics formulation of the path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) method, implemented numerically in a way that enables Metropolis sampling to be employed, is proposed as a means of computing ground state quantum wavefunctions. A key advantage of the DVR-PIMC approach is that customized marginal potentials may be employed, leading to significantly larger PIMC time step sizes, and substantial reductions in computational (CPU) effort. An additional key advantage of the present implementation is that the DVR provides a natural set of interpolant functions that can be used for accurate interpolation and extrapolation of function and tensor quantities away from predefined grid points. The new method is applied here to compute the ground state wavefunction of a model one degree-of-freedom (1 DOF) Morse oscillator system. A one-to-two order-of-magnitude reduction in CPU effort is observed, in comparison with a conventional PIMC simulation. The generalization for many DOFs is straightforward, and expected to result in even greater performance enhancement.

Ground State Properties

The ground state properties of a three-dimensional acoustic polaron are studied using the path integral Monte Carlo technique. In the strong coupling regime, there exists a self-trapped state, which originates from a short ranged electron–phonon interaction, and is of delocalized nature.
