Mathematical Models and Computer Simulations Aims and scope

Abstract

The paper considers the method of the numerical solution of the Schrodinger equation, which can partly be attributed to the class of Monte Carlo methods. The method is presented and simultaneously illustrated by the examples of solving the one-dimensional and multidimensional Schrodinger equation in the problems of a linear one-dimensional oscillator, hydrogen atom, and benzene atom.
