Diffusion Monte Carlo methods; First- and Last-passage algorithms |
| Contents |
In this talk, starting from introduction to Feynman-Kac theorem which established the link between partial differential equations (PDEs) and stochastic processes (especially Brownian motion or diffusion in practice). I apply the theorem to boundary-value problems of the Laplace (Poisson) DEs and explain the development of the first- and last-passage algorithms for computing charge density at a specific point or a charge distribution on a general conducting object and mutual capacitance. |
