We present an elementary and self-contained account of the analogies existing between classical diffusion and the imaginary-time evolution of quantum systems. These analogies are used to develop a new quantum simulation method which allows to calculate the ground-state expectation values...

This article gives an introduction to the multilevel blocking (MLB) approach to both the fermion and the dynamical sign problem in path-integral Monte Carlo simulations. MLB is able to substantially relieve the sign problem in many situations. Besides an exposition...

In these lectures, I will briefly review some of the Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods that have been used to calculate properties of the electron gas and review properties that have been computed with these methods....
