Can anybody recommend a good introduction book on Monte Carlo algorithms in c++? Preferably with applications to physics, and even more preferably, the kind of physics being quantum mechanics.
Thanks!
You can have a look at Morten Hjorth-Jensen’s Lecture Notes on Computational Physics (pdf file, 5.3 MB), University of Oslo (2009), chapters 8-11 (especially chapter 11, on Quantum Monte Carlo).
However, you should make sure you are not trying to learn too many things at the same time (Monte Carlo, C++, quantum mechanics). There are very good references (or introductory books) for each one of those topics separately.
