Abstract

Quantum mechanics provides us with the most fundamental description of natural phenomena. In many instances classical mechanics constitutes an adequate approximation and it is widely used in simulations of both static and dynamic properties of many-body systems. Often, however, quantum effects cannot be neglected and one is faced with the task of devising methods to simulate the behavior of the quantum system.
