Path Integral Monte Carlo

In Path Integral Monte Carlo simulations the systems partition function is mapped to an equivalent classical one at the expense of a temperature-dependent Hamiltonian with an additional imaginary time dimension. As a consequence the standard relation linking the heat capacity Cv to the energy fluctuations, <E2>−<E>2, which is useful in standard classical problems with temperature-independent Hamiltonian, becomes invalid. Instead, it gets replaced by the general relation [Formula: see text] for the intensive heat capacity estimator; β being the inverse temperature and the subscript P indicates the P-fold discretization in the imaginary time direction. This heatcapacity estimator has the advantage of being based directly on the energy estimatorand thus requires no extra computational effort and is suited for extensive phase diagramstudies. As an example, numerical results are presented for a two-dimensional fluid withinternal magnetic quantum degrees of freedom. We discuss in detail origin and consequences of the excess term. Due to the subtraction of two relatively large contributions ofsimilar absolute magnitude a large statistical effort would be necessary for very accurateheat capacity estimates.

Abstract To account for the interference effects of the Coulomb and exchange interactions of electrons the new path integral representation of the density matrix has been developed in the canonical ensemble at finite temperatures. The developed representation allows to reduce the notorious ``fermionic sign problem'' in the path integral Monte Carlo simulations of fermionic systems. The obtained results for pair distribution functions in plasma and uniform electron gas demonstrate the short--range quantum ordering of electrons associated in literature with exchange--correlation excitons. The charge estimations show the excitonic electric neutrality. Comparison of the internal energy with available ones in the literature demonstrates that the short range ordering does not give noticeable contributions in integral thermodynamic characteristics. This fine physical effect was not observed earlier in the standard path integral Monte Carlo simulations.
