Ab initio Quantum Monte Carlo Tutorial

This book offers a unique “learn-by-tutorial” approach for ab initio quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) electronic state calculations. The ab initio QMC method is a representative “Beyond DFT” technique that overcomes challenges faced by the widely used density functional theory (DFT) in materials science. This is the first book focusing on simulation operations of ab initio QMC methods in a tutorial forma...
