In this thesis we have used Quantum Monte Carlo techniques to study two systems that can be regarded as the archetype for neutral strongly interacting systems: 4He, and its fermionic counterpart 3He.More specifically, we have used the Path Integral Ground State and the Path Integral Monte Carlo methods to study a system of two dimensional 3He (2d-3He) and a system of 4He adsorbed on Graphene-Fluoride (GF) and Graphane (GH) at both zero and finite temperature. The purpose of the study of 4He on GF (GH) was the research of new physical phenomena, whereas in the case of 2d-3He it was the application of novel methodologies for the ab-initio study of static and dynamic properties of Fermi systems. In the case of 2d-3He we have computed the spin susceptibility as function of density which turned out to be in very good agreement with experimental data; we have also obtained the first ab-initio evaluation of the zero-sound mode and the dynamic structure factor of 2d-3He that is in remarkably good agreement with experiments. In the case of 4He adsorbed on GF (GH), we determined the zero temperature equilibrium density of the first monolayer of 4He showing also that the commensurate sqrt(3) x sqrt(3) R30 phase is unstable on both substrates; at equilibrium density we found that 4He on GF (GH) is a modulated superfluid with an anisotropic phono-rotonic spectrum; at high coverages we found an incommensurate triangular solid and, on both GF and GH, a commensurate phase at filling factor x= 2/7 that is locally stable or at least metastable. Remarkably, in this commensurate solid phase and for both GF and GH, our computations show preliminary evidence of the presence of a superfluid fraction.

We exploit mappings between quantum and classical systems in order to obtain a class of two-dimensional classical systems with critical properties equivalent to those of the class of one-dimensional quantum systems discussed in a companion paper (J. Hutchinson, J. P. Keating, and F. Mezzadri, arXiv:1503.05732). In particular, we use three approaches: the Trotter-Suzuki mapping; the method of coherent states; and a calculation based on commuting the quantum Hamiltonian with the transfer matrix of a classical system. This enables us to establish universality of certain critical phenomena by extension from the results in our previous article for the classical systems identified.
The existence of nonlinear objects of the vortex type in two-dimensional magnetic systems presents itself as one of the most promising candidates for the construction of nanodevices, useful for storing data, and for the construction of reading and wr iting magnetic heads. The vortex appears as the ground state of a magnetic nanodisk whose magnetic moments interact via dipole-dipole potential?. In this work it is investigated the conditions for the formation of vortices in nanodisks in triangular, square, and hexagonal lattices as a function of the size of the lattice and of the strength of the dipole interaction D. Our results show that there is a transition line separating the vortex state from a capacitor like state. This line has a finite size scaling form depending on the size, L, of the system as Dc=D0 +1/A(?1+B*L^2)?. This behavior is obeyed by the three types of lattices. Inside the vortex phase it is possible to identify two types of vortices separated by a constant, D=Dc, line: An in-plane and an out-of-plane vortex. We observed that the out-of-plane phase does not appear for the triangular lattice. In a two layer system the extra layer of dipoles works as an effective out-of-plane anisotropy inducing a large S^z component at the center of the vortex. Also, we analyzed the mechanism for switching the out-of-plane vortex component. Contrary to some reported results, we found evidences that the mechanism is not a creation-annihilation vortex anti-vortex process.
Restricted Boltzmann machines (RBM) and deep Boltzmann machines (DBM) are important models in machine learning, and recently found numerous applications in quantum many-body physics. We show that there are fundamental connections between them and ten sor networks. In particular, we demonstrate that any RBM and DBM can be exactly represented as a two-dimensional tensor network. This representation gives an understanding of the expressive power of RBM and DBM using entanglement structures of the tensor networks, also provides an efficient tensor network contraction algorithm for the computing partition function of RBM and DBM. Using numerical experiments, we demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is much more accurate than the state-of-the-art machine learning methods in estimating the partition function of restricted Boltzmann machines and deep Boltzmann machines, and have potential applications in training deep Boltzmann machines for general machine learning tasks.
Grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations have been performed to determine the adsorption behavior of Ar and Kr atoms on the exterior surface of a rope (bundle) consisting of many carbon nanotubes. The computed adsorption isotherms reveal phase transit ions associated with the successive creation of quasi-one dimensional lines of atoms near and parallel to the intersection of two adjacent nanotubes.
Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling analysis have been carried out to study the critical behavior in a two-dimensional system of particles with two bonding sites that, by decreasing temperature or increasing density, polymerize reversibly into chains with discrete orientational degrees of freedom and, at the same time, undergo a continuous isotropic-nematic (IN) transition. A complete phase diagram was obtained as a function of temperature and density. The numerical results were compared with mean field (MF) and real space renormalization group (RSRG) analytical predictions about the IN transformation. While the RSRG approach supports the continuous nature of the transition, the MF solution predicts a first-order transition line and a tricritical point, at variance with the simulation results.
