Apply monte carlo techniques to solve quantum mechanical calculations such as the finding the ground state of a quantum system. Monte carlo methods are used to solve the high-dimensional integrals of quantum problems.
Use a variational method to find the ground state of a Hamiltonian. Use a trial function with a parameter or multiple parameters and optimize them such that the total energy is at its minimum. To calculate the expectation value of the energy, a high dimensional integral has to be solved for many-body systems. Use monte carlo integration for this calculation.
