A fourth order Diffusion Monte Carlo algorithm for solving quantum many-body problems /

We derive and numerically implement a fourth order Diffusion Monte Carlo algorithm for solving quantum many-body problems. The method uses a factorization of the imaginary time propagator in terms of the usual local energy and Langevin operators as well as an additional pseudo-potential consisting o...
