“…4,5,6,7 QMC methodology has an important virtue that it enables us to test and employ variety of many-body wave functions (WFs) with explicit electron-electron correlation. This opens a possibility to explore wave functions, which are very difficult to use with traditional methods based on one-particle basis expansions and on orthogonality of one-particle orbitals.…”

“…On the other hand, the quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) method allows direct solution of the many-body problem of interacting electrons using stochastic techniques [3][4][5][6] . In fact, the local density approximation is based on QMC calculations of the homogeneous electron gas 7 (HEG).…”

“…In the other limit, one must also mention Quantum Monte Carlo approach [181][182][183], the aim of which is to compute the total energy via stochastic sampling of the electronic wavefunction and integrals (properties) as mean values. The non ab-initio methods, much faster from the computer-time point of view, may offer proper tools (still within quantum framework for electrons) in intensive simulations of the dynamics of complex systems with numerous atomic degrees of freedom.…”
