We note here that the ground-state wave function of a Fermionic system is
antisymmetric and changes sign.

The new "kinetic energy" can be simulated by the drifted diffusion
The new "kinetic energy" can be simulated by the drift-diffusion
scheme presented in the previous section (VMC).
The new "potential" is the local energy, which has smaller fluctuations
when $\Psi_T$ gets closer to the exact wave function. It can be simulated by
changing the number of particles according to $\exp\left[ -\delta t\,
\left(E_L(\mathbf{r}) - E_\text{ref}\right)\right]$
where $E_{\text{ref}}$ is a constant introduced so that the average
of this term is close to one, keeping the number of particles rather
constant.
\left(E_L(\mathbf{r}) - E_T\right)\right]$
where $E_T$ is the constant we had introduced above, which is adjusted to
the running average energy and is introduced to keep the number of particles
reasonably constant.
This equation generates the /N/-electron density $\Pi$, which is the
product of the ground state with the trial wave function. It
