Constrained-path Quantum Monte Carlo study of the three-orbital Hubbard model for iron-based superconductors

ORAL

Abstract

Pairing and magnetic properties of the three-orbital Hubbard model for iron-based superconductors are systematically studied via the constrained-path quantum Monte Carlo method. We further develop the algorithm for multi-orbital Hubbard models in general and introduce parallel techniques to allow for large-lattice simulations. In addition, the effects of the additional $d_{xy}$ orbital are studied by comparing with our previous simulation on the two-orbital model [1].\\[ 4pt] [1] G.-K. Liu et al., J. Phys.: Condens.
