Metropolis Monte-Carlo for magnetic system with $S > 1/2$ or arbitrary set of quantum systems
A well-known example of classical Monte-Carlo method application is Ising model with $S=1/2$.
As I understood, people there widely use it for any kind of magnetic materials following the same idea

What are the state-of-the-art methods for simulating a time-dependent transverse-field Ising model?
Consider a spin-1/2 Ising model with time-dependent transverse field:
$$ H = - \sum_{i<j} J_{i, j} \sigma^z_i \sigma^z_j - \Gamma(t) \sum_i \sigma^x_i$$
Given the initial state $|\psi(0)\rangle$ (...

Dimension of Hamiltonian & Diagonalizability
Often in condensed matter physics literature, one encounters a Hamiltonian that goes something like :
$$
H = \sum_{i=1}^{n} J_{i}\ S_{i}^{z} S_{i+1}^{z},
$$
where $J_{i}$ are the coupling constants, $...
