Majorana positivity and the fermion sign problem of quantum Monte Carlo simulations

ZC Wei, C Wu, Y Li, S Zhang, T Xiang - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
The sign problem is a major obstacle in quantum Monte Carlo simulations for many-body
fermion systems. We examine this problem with a new perspective based on the Majorana …

Spontaneous particle-hole symmetry breaking of correlated fermions on the Lieb lattice

M Bercx, JS Hofmann, FF Assaad, TC Lang - Physical Review B, 2017 - APS
We study spinless fermions with nearest-neighbor repulsive interactions (tV model) on the

Semigroup approach to the sign problem in quantum Monte Carlo simulations

ZC Wei - arXiv preprint arXiv:1712.09412, 2017 - arxiv.org
We propose a new framework based on the concept of semigroup to understand the fermion
sign problem. By using properties of contraction semigroups, we obtain new sufficient …
