Quantum Monte Carlo for bosons

For bosons in a harmonic oscillator-like trap we will use is a spherical (S) or an elliptical (E) harmonic trap in one, two and finally three dimensions, with the latter given by

Vext(r)={12mω2hor2(S)12m[ω2ho(x2+y2)+ω2zz2](E)

where (S) stands for symmetric and

ˆH=Ni(22m2i+Vext(ri))+Ni<jVint(ri,rj),

as the two-body Hamiltonian of the system.
