Quantum Monte Carlo algorithm for softcore boson systems.

An efficient quantum Monte Carlo algorithm for the simulation of bosonic systems on a lattice in a grand canonical ensemble is proposed. It is based on the mapping of bosonic models to the spin models in the limit of the infinite total spin quantum number. It is demonstrated how this limit may be taken explicitly in the algorithm, eliminating the systematic errors. The efficiency of the algorithm is examined for the noninteracting lattice boson model and compared with the stochastic series expansion method with the heat-bath-type scattering probability of the random walker.

Theory of scanning tunneling microscopy measurement of single spin decoherence in a superconductor.

Localized spin states in conventional superconductors at low temperatures are expected to have a long decoherence time due to the strong suppression of spin relaxation channels. We propose a scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) experiment allowing the direct measurement of the decoherence time of a single spin in a conventional superconductor. The experimental setup can be readily applied to general-purpose spin-polarized STM and to local spin relaxation spectroscopy. A possible extension of the setup to a quantum information processing scheme is discussed.
