TRIQS/CTHYB

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 2 ★★☆

An open-source solver for the impurity problem based on the continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo method. Imaginary-time Green’s functions of the impurity Anderson model and the effective impurity model in the dynamical mean-field approximation can be calculated with high speed by using an efficient Monte Carlo algorithm. The main programs are written by C++, and can be called from Python scripts.

H-wave

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 2 ★★☆

H-wave is a Python package for performing unrestricted Hartree-Fock (UHF) calculations and random phase approximation (RPA) calculations for itinerant electron systems. H-wave supports UHF calculations both in real- and wavenumber-spaces. H-wave supports one-body and two-body interactions in the Wannier90 format as inputs for H-wave, and thus users can solve ab initio effective Hamiltonians derived from  Wannier90/RESPACK calculations based on UHF and RPA methods.
