Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Covering topics including diffusion Monte Carlo, path integral Monte Carlo, variational Monte Carlo, and fermionic complexities (and many more), this book isn't merely a compendium of methods-it's a voyage of understanding. The book empowers readers to decipher the inner workings of Quantum Monte Carlo. It doesn't stop at equipping you with theories; it arms you with practical insights through sample codes, enabling you to deconstruct, analyze, and enhance existing algorithms. Ultimately, it showcases that Quantum Monte Carlo isn't just a numerical tool-it's an expedition that reveals the hidden facets of the quantum world.Key Features: - Accompanying code and worked examples of how an algorithm can be coded and tested - What makes Quantum Monte Carlo superior and just as importantly, what breaks it - Teaches statistical physics and quantum physics in parallel - Includes detailed mathematical derivations that won't leave blind spots - Emphasises Quantum Monte Carlo as a tool of visualizing quantum mechanics
