Method

Quantum Monte Carlo

Challenge issue

This Challenge is related to Challenge #122 . In recent years, the quantum matter community has witnessed the rapid progress in the study of open quantum systems and the classification of states; specifically regarding the work of researchers——especially Chinese Scientists—— like Wang, Yu, Zhang, Ma, et al.

However a key issue remains: when examining these phase, how do we determine if they are stable? This is a highly technical counting problem. Given the difficulties in developing analytical methods, we hope to evaluate their stability and existence from a numerical perspective.

Research direction

Start by reading Challenge #122 and the Quantum Monte Carlo method described here. Determine what numerical evidence would establish stability and existence of the proposed phase, then identify how that evaluation could fit the repository. Done means a concrete, reproducible numerical approach is defined and its results can distinguish stable from unstable phases.
